About Me: Hi, I'm Thomas, I am a passionate horse rider since I'm 8. I am also interested in the Ancient Egyptian history and spirituality....so this week combines many elements I'm interested in. I'm looking to spend it with like minded people. Any level of riders is welcome.

We will stay in a beautiful garden hotel near the Nile. They have a great rooftop terrace from where you can witness a great sunset, maybe sipping a tea or a local beer or wine. Swimming pool is also available for us immersed in the green garden. Nice food also available and on Sundays they have a Thai day with a Thai chef. Any questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section!

An amazing location, temples over 4000 years old and all reachable on horseback. Non riders are also welcome.
