点评:Me and my husband spent a week riding with Sally in Ecuador and the time was absolutely spectacular and unique. It’s a great way to experience this beautiful country, and the riding was amazing - reach out to Sally as she can easily tailor a trip towards your needs. And don’t be afraid of the weather it was reliably much better than the forecast throughout the three weeks we spent in Ecuador and apparently that’s a theme haha.
Trip: we rode three days in Zuleta valley followed by four days in Cotopaxi. The northern Valleys are beautiful, offer great views and lots of opportunities to learn about local culture and way of life. Riding is on the slow side given the mountainous terrain. Cotopaxi is spectacular, truly the nature experience we were seeking: remote, lots of wildlife (horses, deer, foxes, birds), open plains for faster rides, and surprisingly varied landscapes - incredible!
Riding: Sally leads most tours, she truly cares about the horses and they are all really great, healthy and safe. The tack is in good shape and very comfortable. I’m an experienced rider and my husband is a beginner but athletic and adventurous. Sally and her team did a great job in horse pairing for us and we felt comfortable, safe but excited at all times. We had the opportunity to ride several different horses and they were all fantastic, suited to our skills, responsive and safe.
Accommodation: We stayed each night in a different spot and they were all very unique and really beautiful. The food is great and plenty! Always big breakfasts, sally provides varied, healthy, and delicious lunches and dinner is typically a three way meal.
If you’re thinking about a trip with ride Andes I highly recommend taking action. The value is very good, all is cared for and it’s super personal, easy to taper toward your needs and the time that you’ll be galloping on your new horse friend amongst wild horses and Andean condors under snowcapped volcanoes is invaluable anyways.
翻译:我和丈夫在厄瓜多尔和萨莉一起骑马度过了一周,那段时光真是精彩绝伦,独一无二。这是体验这个美丽国度的绝佳方式,骑行体验也棒极了——联系萨莉吧,她可以根据你的需求量身定制行程。别担心天气,在我们待在厄瓜多尔的三周里,天气总是比预报的好得多,看来这已经成了惯例了,哈哈。
行程:我们在祖莱塔山谷骑行了三天,然后在科托帕希火山骑行了四天。北部山谷风景优美,视野开阔,而且有很多机会了解当地的文化和生活方式。由于山地地形,骑行速度比较慢。科托帕希火山景色壮丽,正是我们梦寐以求的自然体验:人迹罕至,野生动物众多(马、鹿、狐狸、鸟类),开阔的平原可以骑得更快,而且地貌变化万千——简直令人难以置信!
骑行:萨莉带领大部分旅行团,她非常爱护马匹,所有的马都非常棒,健康又安全。马具状况良好,非常舒适。我是一位经验丰富的骑手,而我的丈夫虽然是新手,但他体格健壮,热爱冒险。Sally 和她的团队为我们精心挑选了合适的马匹,让我们始终感到舒适、安全,同时也充满兴奋。我们有机会骑乘了几匹不同的马,它们都非常棒,适合我们的骑术水平,反应灵敏且安全。
住宿:我们每晚都住在不同的地方,每个地方都独具特色,风景优美。食物丰盛美味!早餐总是很丰盛,Sally 会提供种类丰富、健康美味的午餐,晚餐通常是三餐。
如果您正在考虑参加 Ride Andes 的旅行,我强烈建议您立即行动。性价比很高,一切都安排妥当,而且行程非常个性化,可以根据您的需求进行调整。无论如何,在白雪皑皑的火山下,与野马和安第斯秃鹰一起驰骋,与您新结识的马儿为伴,这段时光本身就是无价的。
