4.Guided Horse Riding

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3 reviews · 1 - 4 hours · from $76

Ride AlUla with an English or Arabic-speaking guide on a private outing suited to your ability. Beginners stay inside a green farm, while intermediate and advanced riders can reach Elephant Rock. Turki guides some rides, with safety instruction, water refills, and optional transfers.

“Fantastic ride to the Elephant Rock! Guide was friendly and looked after me well during the ride. You can tell that he is clearly very passionate about horses and treat them with kindness, respect and great horsemanship. Horses are very fit, well looked after, with their saddles and bridles well adjusted and suitable for long distance riding activity. Horses are responsive and energetic but with good brakes and brave as lions, nothing puzzles them in the slightest. Beautiful views, great horses. Highly recommended and can’t wait to return to AlUla in the future for another ride.”
