Thank you for checking in during our stay – I am having the time of my life!!! The people here are wonderful, the instruction excellent, the lesson horses superb, the food delicious, the rooms comfortable and the scenery beautiful! I don’t think I’ve ever had such a wonderful vacation!

I would only recommend one thing, when independent women like ourselves tell you they’re taking the train from Lisbon to Evora, tell them DONT DO IT!!! Lol The ticket desk failed to inform us that there were several changes of trains along the way. Our first leg came to its end and the conductor kicked us (politely) off the train! Fortunately, Rita at Monte Velho immediately arranged for a taxi the take us to Monte Velho, so no harm, no foul. But we’ve learned our lesson!

Otherwise it has been splendid!

Sharing stunning, remote locations from the saddle and spending quiet nights in the wilderness with your partner will foster a new appreciation for nature. 

For an all-inclusive horseback riding vacation that doesn’t skimp on the comfort, here are our favorite 10 all-inclusive horseback riding vacations.

Vista Verde Ranch, Colorado

In the heart of the Elk River Valley and surrounded by the Rocky Mountains, Vista Verde Ranch is the ultimate romantic setting for your all-inclusive horseback riding vacation in Colorado. 

Wranglers pair you with a horse at the start of the week. After some basic drills to assess your ability, you’ll have a short “practice” trail ride. After that, trail rides take place twice daily, with some day-long rides throughout the week. The year-round riding program accommodates new riders, and experienced riders are welcome to join their cattle round-up in late August.

The wooden Honeymoon Dome cabin may look plain on the outside, but inside you’ll find plush sofas, a beautiful bathroom with marble countertops, and a cozy wood-burning furnace. A private outdoor hot tub sits on the deck so you can watch the sunrise or soak under the stars. 

Gourmet meals are also part of the package, served family-style in the dining room. Cookouts are popular when the weather is nice. Wine pairings complete the gourmet experience, and couples who want a day off from riding can sign up for a cooking class or wine tasting. Or, relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the ranch.

Mayan Dude Ranch, Texas

For a horseback riding vacation that’s close to home, Mayan Dude Ranch is just outside of San Antonio, Texas. Each day kicks off with a trail ride to a hearty outdoor breakfast. Afterwards, guests can either continue with the ride, exploring the ranch’s 348 acres, or head back to the main lodge and enjoy amenities like the pool, sports equipment, and nearby golf course. There is also an afternoon trail ride if you’d rather skip breakfast and sleep in. 

A river runs through the ranch where anglers can cast a line. The grounds are quiet and peaceful, a perfect place for a leisurely afternoon walk or curling up in the grass with a book. Mayan is a family-oriented ranch and there are lots of activities for the kids to enjoy like cowboy games and dino walks.  

Lodging is plain but cozy. Cottages with up to 3 rooms are available. All-inclusive horseback riding vacations here cover two trail rides per day and all meals, which are served up family style and feature Southern comfort food like ribs and biscuits plus a Mexican menu on theme nights. The grounds come alive with parties almost every night of the week including barn dances, live music, and bonfires.  

Rancho Cortez, Texas

Also outside of San Antonio, Rancho Cortez is an all-inclusive dude ranch that offers weekly horseback riding vacation packages and overnight stays as well as day visits and private riding lessons.

Lodging is a traditional Mongolian yurt, and meals include plenty of traditional Mongolian fare.

Guided horseback rides to local villages and farms are included with a 4-night minimum stay.

There are also hiking trails, boating and fishing, and Mongolian wrestling lessons available. 

Facilities are available during limited time frames as the camp runs on a generator. Horsemanship and riding are ingrained in Mongolian culture, so if you’re looking for the ultimate horseback riding vacation, this is it.

7 Best Horseback Riding Vacations for Single Travelers

As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. Please read our disclosure for more info.

Heading out on a solo horse riding holiday? Choose wisely.

Horse riding vacations for single travelers are like horses grazing in a pasture. The ranches look glossy and beautiful in the brochure, but until you walk into the pasture and ride that horse, you don’t really know what you’re getting.

As an equestrian travel expert, I’ve taken the guesswork out of selecting the best horse riding vacation for singles. Below, you’ll find some of my favorite solo horse riding holidays.

What Single Equestrians Want on Vacation

When I visited Kay El Bar Ranch in Wickenburg, Arizona, I interviewed Rebecca Goodwin, a horse enthusiast from the United Kingdom. Rebecca, or Bex as she’s called in England, was looking for a place to ride where she would feel safe and surrounded by fellow horse-lovers. She wanted a supportive and friendly atmosphere and was looking for a ranch holiday that came highly recommended from an equestrian travel writer, such as myself.

If you’re like Bex, read on for singles-focused travel advice!

USA RANCH TYPES

Our ranch holidays in the US generally fall into one of these categories, although some offer a combination. If you are not sure what to expect from your horseback adventure, please contact us with your requirements and we will point you in the right direction!

WORKING RANCHES

Working ranches offer you the chance to enjoy the real myth of the Wild West. You will participate in the ranch activities, joining the wranglers in their daily work. Depending on the time of year you could be moving cattle to new pastures, branding, vaccinating, sorting cattle and checking fences. This will give you a real insight into cowboy life.

TX Ranch - Montana

Kara Creek Ranch - Wyoming 

GUEST RANCHES

These ranches will give you a western experience, but they may not have cattle to work. Riding is the main focus and most ranches cater for all types of rider, even beginners. A good riding holiday for riders looking to experience the magical landscape of the Rocky mountains but prefer long trail rides and a relaxed atmosphere! 

Rocking Z - Montana

Bitterroot Ranch - Wyoming

GUEST / WORKING RANCHES

These ranches are a mix of a guest ranch and a working ranch. They tend to have many of the amenities of a guest ranch but they also work cattle. There is usually a chance to help with the stock whilst having the luxury of many guest ranch amenities.

Zapata Ranch - Colorado

Hide Out Ranch - Wyoming 

HORSE / CATTLE DRIVES

Cattle and horse drives provide the ultimate cowboy experience; spend all day in the saddle admiring the unspoilt scenery while doing a worthwhile job. Accommodation can be basic whilst out on the drive but back at the ranch the accommodation will be much more comfortable.

TX Ranch Cattle Drive - Montana

Silver Spur Horse Drive - Idaho 

TRAIL RIDES

Joining a trail ride can mean leaving the comforts of the ranch behind and staying in different accommodation along the way - sometimes camping, sometimes in local hotels. Follow a route through spectacular landscapes and cover different ground everyday.

Waymo Giving 100,000 Robotaxi Rides Per Week But Not Making Any Money

Running a robotaxi empire ain't cheap., waymore revenue.

As its competitors falter , the Google-owned and California-based robotaxi service Waymo seems to be in cruise control.

According to figures the company shared in August, Waymo is now giving over 100,000 paid rides to customers each week in San Francisco, Phoenix, and Los Angeles, using its fleet of fully autonomous and specially-equipped Jaguar SUVs. That's double the number of weekly rides it was giving in May, a clear sign of its growing dominance in this burgeoning market.

"At this point, the fully autonomous driving industry is really just an industry of one: Waymo," former CEO John Krafcik, who is now a board member at the EV automaker Rivian, told The New York Times .

But as the newspaper notes, there's a major caveat: despite its healthy stream of customers, Waymo still isn't profitable. Google's experimental division, which includes Waymo, had an operating loss of around $2 billion in the first of this year, and the robotaxi company is most likely a significant portion of that loss, Mark Mahaney at investment research firm Evercore ISI told the NYT .

With even the industry leader still in the red, it's a sobering reminder that the road to profitability is a long one, with no guarantee that it won't lead to a dead end.

Highway Robbery

Granted, these kinds of losses come with the territory. To make stupid amounts of money, you've got to spend stupid amounts of money.

Nevertheless, the NYT lays out a key disadvantage for Waymo. Unlike the rideshare companies it will be competing against, Uber and Lyft — with whom it charges similar prices per ride — Waymo needs to provide its own vehicles. And self-driving Jaguars aren't cheap, costing as much as $100,000 a pop, according to the NYT , citing remarks made by a Waymo executive in a podcast.

Though its safety track record is very good, Waymo will also have to contend with a general hesitancy towards self-driving technology. To safely operate its vehicles, Waymo meticulously creates detailed maps of each city, so expanding to new ones will require considerable research, time and money.

Case in point: not long before Waymo announced a huge expansion across California, Google said it was reinvesting $5 billion into the company. A show of faith, sure, but a sign of the serious expenses that an expansion entails.

Down the Road

The long and short of it is that everything costs a lot. Luckily, Waymo has managed to avoid the costliest blunder of them all in this biz, which is a major crash turned PR disaster — unlike its competitor Cruise, owned by General Motors, which briefly flamed out of the business after regulators began investigating its robotaxis for endangering pedestrians .

Waymo's chief product officer Saswat Panigrahi told the NYT that the company hopes that some of its fixed costs will decrease over time, and that the roll-out of its sixth generation of robotaxis, which are made by Chinese EV automaker Zeekr to replace the Jags, will mean "the profitability will jump further" — eventually.

Waymo will also need to be shrewd about what markets it targets. Potentially ripe for the picking, the NYT notes, are areas that have a shortage of Uber-slash-Lyft drivers, or cities with poor public transportation.

Those markets could help rake in money in the future. But for now, the robotaxi industry is at a crossroads.

Choose from 15 tours and 8 destinations in North America

You can gallop along the beach, herd cattle in the Rockies, take dressage lessons , go on wilderness pack trips or do trail rides in some of the world’s most spectacular places.  Large parts of our country are now densely populated and closed to riding tours by highways, fences, shopping malls and housing developments, but there are still vast expanses where one can ride freely as people used to do a century ago when horses were a prime medium of transportation.

There are a myriad of dude ranches, riding stables and trail rides on offer in the United States, but it is difficult to find riding tours which meet international standards of quality.  Insurance problems in many states make riding very costly and often rights-of-way for horse travel have been lost to fences, shopping malls, highways and housing developments.  Nevertheless, Equitours has been able to find some first class equestrian adventures and huge areas still exist where people can ride in open, unspoiled country as they used to everywhere a century ago.

One excellent place for people to ride at many levels on a wide variety of excellent horses from purebred Arabians to Percherons is the Bitterroot Ranch, the Equitours headquarters for over 40 years.  At the Bitterroot one can take trail rides in small groups divided according to skills so that less experienced riders are not frightened and good riders are not bored by slow, nose to tail rides.  There is an extensive obstacle course where advanced riders can practice their jumping skills, chances to herd cows and pack trips into the Greater Yellowstone Wild Ecosystem are also a possibility.  Certified instructors can help you prepare for the most challenging international rides.

World class dressage instruction on superb Lusitano stallions is available in Massachusetts in the summer and in Florida in the winter.  Guests can take instruction or go on trail rides using well trained Quarterhorses in the Texas Hill Country all year.  There are also outstanding trips on sure-footed ranch horses along the border of Utah and Arizona which have been particularly popular.  This area is arguably the most breathtakingly beautiful part of the world.

The passing of these last months has only set into our minds how truly blessed we were to meet each of you and to spend that time in the beautiful Wyoming wilderness. We recount each day of that trip often, and at the end of our reminiscing it ends in a big smile of knowing that we are forever changed from that experience.

Northeastern graduate Fiona Howard rides to equestrian triple gold in her first Paralympics

• Search Search

Howard and her horse Diamond Dunes capped off their Paris games with a winning 81.994% in dressage freestyle, riding to the ‘Avatar’ film score. They won gold earlier this week in individual and team events.

• Copy Link Link Copied!

Fiona Howard only started riding para dressage three years ago, but a decisive debut on the sport’s biggest stage has established her and her horse, Diamond Dunes, firmly at its pinnacle.

Howard, a 2021 Northeastern University graduate, capped her first Paralympic Games in Paris with a gold medal ride in the Grade II freestyle dressage event, scoring a 81.994% and beating out silver medalist Georgia Wilson of Great Britain by about two and a half percentage points. Heidemarie Dresing from Germany won bronze.

The win comes on the heels of a U.S. victory in the Team event on Friday. Howard and Diamond Dunes scored an 80.000% — a huge score in dressage, a personal best for the pair and the highest individual score across any para dressage event at the Games to that point.

The three Americans competing earned a combined 235.567% score ahead of silver medalists The Netherlands and bronze medalists Germany. It was Team USA’s first-ever team medal in equestrian at the Paralympics.

Those wins come on the heels of a gold medal individual ride for Howard and Dunes on Tuesday.

After the team event, Howard heaped praise on Dunes, the 11-year-old Hanoverian gelding she’s been paired with since March.

“Even trotting around the ring I was like, ‘he feels really good,'” she said. “What a feeling, when you can just trust your horse.”

As its name suggests, freestyle dressage is a looser affair than other dressage events, in which horse and rider pairs all perform the same set routines of movements to accumulate points. Freestyle dressage works more like figure skating: pairs work compulsory movements into routines choreographed specifically for them, to music they choose. The genres can cover a wide range, from classical to hip hop and arena rock. This season, Howard and Diamond Dunes have used music from the “Avatar” film soundtrack.

In dressage, an equestrian discipline where experience matters and most top competitors are paralympic veterans, Howard and Dunes’ decisive performances and gold medal sweep have been extraordinary.

“It’s the smoothness, it’s the regularity, the transitions. It’s the overall package,” commentator Deb Criddle said of the pair during Peacock’s livestream of the team event. “It just looks so easy, so elegant. ” 

Para dressage riders compete in one of five grades based on their physical limitations and accommodations. Howard, who uses crutches and a wheelchair, competes at Grade II. During rides, her hands and legs are strapped to her stirrups, and she can use her voice and light dressage whips to help signal Diamond Dunes. 

Howard and Dunes train together at Hof Kasselman, an elite equestrian barn in Germany, with Nicole Wego. Howard divides her time between Germany and Wellington, Florida, where she trains with fellow Team USA member Kate Shoemaker.

Howard has been competing in para dressage since 2021, but she has been riding horses at an elite level since childhood. Born in London to an American mother and a British father, she started riding at age 3 and competed internationally as a youth in reining, a Western equestrian discipline.

At 19, after years in and out of hospitals with a series of serious health issues, she was diagnosed by her team at Boston Children’s Hospital with dystonia, a neurological disorder that slowly sapped her ability to walk and control her limbs.

While completing a psychology degree at Northeastern, she spent nearly 800 days in the hospital receiving treatment. In 2021, as part of the university’s equestrian club, she started learning how to ride again all over again, working with her body’s newfound limitations.

Speaking with Northeastern Global News in May, Howard recounted a night in the hospital that she almost didn’t survive — and how it strengthened her resolve to get back in the saddle after years away from the barn.

Her doctors “were worried my heart was going to stop,” she said. “And this is kind of morbid, but I was OK with not making it. I was surviving, but it wasn’t a life. And it was in that moment I thought, ‘I need to get back to horses.’”

My wife & I have just completed the Journey of a Lifetime 16 day 15 night Trip as organised by Express to Russia. We also had a tour of St Petersburg & Moscow as well. The planning & execution of both trips was well above our expectations. The guides we had in all of our destinations were exceptional & the meet & greet & return to the stations went as smooth as clockwork. We had one minor hitch but that was through no fault of Express to Russia..a quick email from our Ipad had the problem resolved immediately We did have some misgivings at the start about doing the booking online ourselves but Elena was wonderful & answered all of our questions promptly & to our satisfaction. We felt comfortable with the whole process.The train trip is wonderful with Mongolia being a "special " place for us! We highly recommend Elena & her company. I am happy to answer any questions any body may wish to ask.

Thank you so very much for organizing our trip. Everything went wonderfully, and we really enjoyed our time in Russia. Moscow was beautiful, Lake Baikal was very cold, yet very fun to swim in, and the DPR Koreans that I met and made friends with in Vladivostok was beyond priceless. The guides you got for us did an exceptional job, and the drivers helped us out a lot as well. The hotels you got for us were great, and the room you got for us in the Vladivostok really made the long stay comfortable. The trains were also very enjoyable as was the Russian hospitality, although we really weren´t expecting people to be so generous or helpful. Overall, the trip was wonderful, and you arranged it magnificently. You really went out of your way to accommodate my schedule and help me with my schoolwork, so I really appreciate it; I couldn´t have done it without you. So once again, thank you for all of your efforts, and hopefully in the future you will be able to help us out again. Take care, and thank you for everything.

Trans-Siberian Train

The main route of the Trans-Siberian Railway begins in Moscow and heads east to Vladivostok passing through Yekaterinburg, Chelyabinsk, Omsk, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk, Ulan Ude, Chita, Blagoveshchensk and Khabarovsk. The length of the route is 9259 km or 5753 miles. The train travels through 7 time zones and takes 8 days to complete without making overnight stops. The Trans-Siberian splits off into a few other fascinating directions as well:

Trans-Mongolian Train

The Trans-Mongolian Line was built from 1940 to 1956 between Ulan-Ude at Lake Baikal’s eastern shore and the Chinese capital Beijing. From Ulan-Ude the tracks go south towards Mongolia, crossing the great Gobi Desert and finally ending up in Beijing. This route is a mere 7867 kilometers long (Moscow - Beijing).

Trans-Manchurian Train

The Trans-Manchurian Line runs on the same route as the Trans-Siberian as far as Tarskaya, which is a few hundred miles east of Baikal. From Tarskaya, the line runs southeast into China near Zabaikalsk and makes its way down to Beijing. This route is a 9001 kilometres long (Moscow - Beijing).

Frequently Asked Questions From Our Travelers

Where does the trans-siberian railway start and where does it end.

The Trans-Siberian Railway starts in Moscow and extends all the way to Vladivostok on the Pacific Ocean. This route connects the European part of Russia, the Ural region, Siberia and the Russian Far East.

Are Beijing and Ulan Bator stops along the Trans-Siberian railway?

Beijing and Ulan Bator are parts of Trans-Mongolian railway - an offshoot of the main Trans-Siberian Railway. There are many options to arrange your travel: to visit Ulan Bator and or follow the Trans-Siberian railway to or from Vladivostok. 

Can I use the hop-on hop-off principle when traveling by Trans-Siberian train?

Unfortunately, that is not possible. Train tickets in Russia are not open, so you will need a separate ticket with a particular date for each leg of your trip - for example, you may go all the way from Moscow to Vladivostok, but you will only be able to leave the train for short stops at the railway stations. In case if you would like to explore different cities on the way, you will need separate tickets, for example Moscow – Yekaterinburg, Yekaterinburg – Irkutsk, Irkutsk - Vladivostok. We offer carefully planned private tours that will allow you to visit several cities on your way.

Are there showers aboard Trans-Siberian trains?

Most of the Trans-Siberian trains do not have showers, and there are two WCs per each carriage. Please consider it while planning your trip. We recommend to choose shorter distances (that is, to plan more overnight stops in the cities along the way) to avoid the inconvenience of not showering. Another option is to choose the trip on board a more luxurious train which has all the on-board amenities that one might need.

Are meals included on the board of Trans-Siberian express train?

When traveling with RZD regular trains meals are not included. You can easily buy your meals in the restaurant car.  Another option is to buy local specialties from “babushkas” (grandmothers, or simply Russian old ladies) on the short train stops along the way. This is a very authentic way of getting your meals.

What is the most comfortable way to travel on the Trans-Siberian railroad?

There are luxurious trains on the Trans-Siberian railway that are quite different from regular RZD trains and can be described as 5* hotels on wheels. We offer this type of accommodation on the Imperial Russia train where you can enjoy a full board menu, a shower and a comfortable compartment.
