Wonderful experience with Natasha and Yannis. The horses were really relaxed and well behaved, even for people that were not experienced. We did the two hour ride down to the beach, which included taking the horses into the sea, which was amazing! Feeling a horse swim in the sea underneath you was unbelievable. Natasha even picked us up from our hotel as the hotel transport was out of action. Yannis was superb and friendly on the ride out and very relaxed and encouraging! Definitely worth the money and we'd do again next time in Zathynkos!

It was really the best experience my partner and I had on Zakynthos! A big thanks to their son who accompanied us! He made it a very special day and I was very impressed about his knowledge! The horses are very well trained and Natasha only wants the best for their horses.
Beautiful experience. Lovely family business. The horses are well trained and they behaved the whole time. Natasha, Yanis and their son make sure you enjoy every minute of the ride. Everything we asked for they allowed us! They care about their horses, their customers, and safety. I would highly recommend this place over the others nearby, and I would definitely come back. Thanks for everything
My partner and I decided to do the 2 hr seaside ride because of the good reviews that we had read on here (seemed like people had fun and that the horses were treated well). However, this turned out to be THE MOST boring and unprofessional/awkward trail ride we have ever gone on. Just as a note, I'm an experienced rider (ex-eventer) and my partner is a beginner and we have both done trail rides in multiple locations. To start, 75% of the ride is through random streets/close to the road. Also, this was the first trail ride we have ever done were there was 0 trotting, cantering, or galloping, just walking the entire time. In any case, we were excited to go into the water with the horses but once we got to the beach, only one of the horses was OK with going in. All the others really didn't want to go into the water. The owner just kept telling us to hit them with the crop until they went... I understand hitting a bit to encourage the horse or to tell them they're not listening but smacking them until they do something they obviously don't want to do is not a good experience. We went back and forth in the water really slowly but everyone was feeling suuppeer awkward (there were 4 other riders). We even tried to get out multiple times because we felt uncomfortable and the owner just kept pulling us by the reins to go back and telling us to keep hitting the horses even though we kept saying no thanks. One of the girls even jumped off her horse and just stayed on the beach. It was seriously so uncomfortable and the owner was so unprofessional. I would definitely not recommend this place to anyone, we were glad to leave (along with everyone else on the ride) and are extremely surprised that this place has been getting any good reviews...
Lovely horses and people so much fun highly recommend best horse riding in kalamaki
i got into a horse accident a few months back. So getting on the horse was very scary for me, but it turns out I had nothing to worry about the horses were the best trained horses I’ve ridden on in my many years of riding. My boyfriend in whom has never even sat on a horse was able to gallop on the beach because of how well trained they were. The whole family was extremely nice and very welcoming to everyone in the group. I definitely recomend this place
The best day of our holiday
I went to Happy horses twice during my 1 week there. The first time I went for 1hr, I had a lovely horse called Malena, although quite a big horse,was the most gentle and placid horse,the second visit was for 2hrs and I got to choose malena again and this time took the horses into the sea. The couple who run Happy horses are Yanis and natasha, were really helpful and reassuring, they cater for people of all ages,from the experienced rider to complete novices. I had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this experience
