Review of Nairobi’s Karura Forest horseback ride: wildlife, beginner-friendly guides, costs, meeting point, value, and practical tips.

“I loved my ride. The horses were beautiful well fed well taken care of~ equipment in excellent condition too. I rode with David~ great rider and teacher. He teaches lessons so the ride was super fun. He had a wonderful demeanor. The forest is super cool~< the trail narrow and lush with turns and lots of interest. Wear long sleeves because the forest is grown and natural. Wear saw plenty of monkeys too! Highly recommend. Thanks for such a great time. I am returning with my daughter. It was that good.”
