Phuket has become one of Thailand’s major destination because it has a lot to offer and if horse riding is your favorite sport or just enjoy riding a horse for fun, then Phuket is the place for you as it has two riding clubs, the Phuket Laguna Riding club which is located in Bang Tao and the phuket riding club, which is located in Rawai.

Both island’s riding clubs have well trained horses and gentle horses for children and beginners. For experienced riders, guides will take you on more varied trails and professional instructors, guides and escorts are provided.

Horse riding is a romantic and fun way of exploring Phuket Island’s natural scenery and the first time riders; you will be escorted along small inner roads through the jungle and plantations surrounding the riding clubs. Experienced riders will take longer rides that will take you along some beaches, coconut groves and to the many island’s amazing sceneries.

Some might say that Phuket is well known for elephant riding, but you will be surprised at how popular it has become for people clip-clop for an hour or two hours through rubber plantations, back street and along the beach. Phuket Riding Club is the logical choice if an equestrian adventure is your fun, as it has been operating for nearly 20years and it has some pretty cool sights.

Usually, the programmers start with 30minutes to 2 hours or more depending on how long you want to be on the horse and the prices begin at 350baht.
