The ride begins before you mount: wind off the Red Sea cools the air while the desert beyond radiates heat, and your horse shifts its weight as if reading the line where sand meets surf. For two hours you’ll move between coastal tracks and low dunes, the rhythm of hooves giving the landscape its tempo and the guides setting an easy, steady pace for all experience levels.
