This may be the most difficult review I have written because I cannot do justice to the immeasurable pleasure I received from doing the Dali Trail with Nacho and Dani. It began in the planning stages as a trip of a lifetime with 7 friends. It became a lifetime expertience that has changed us forever - for each of us in a different but very meaningful way. The scenery, leadership, quality and quantity of food and cava was unsurpassed. Safety for all was paramount. The variety of riding experiences was amazing, maybe even more so for our group as in the States we don't have that kind of history behind our culture, buildings and landscapes. Our guide Nacho was so much more than a guide - he was first and foremost concerned for safety, went out of his way to assist everyone in the way they needed it most, and helped every rider become a better horseman -not to mention he kept us laughing with his fun nature and great stories. His assistant, Dani was very gracious, kind and helpful too. They were an amazing pair that made you feel well taken care of. The accomodations were charming and more than adequate and the food and wine were plentiful. The ride surpassed my expectations in every way -and my expectations were very high. The price was very reasonable for all the value recieved. The logistics of this operation require many details and they got them all right -incredible! It was the most amazing riding experience I have ever had and I have had many.The only question I am asking myself as I prepare to depart Barcelona is how soon can I come back?

I really, really, really enjoyed my week in Spain with Panoramatrails!!!! I did the beautiful Barbarossa Pirates trail. The horses are great and very well taken care of! Our horses were all very forward, energetic and surefooted!! I loved them! Denise and Anais were our guides on the trip and they are so nice and wonderful with the horses and with the guests. Rudi joined us for two days as well and we had lots of fun with all three of them!! The places we stayed are very good. Some simple, but always clean! At one place I even had a jacuzzi in my bathroom!! :-) I also enjoyed the food! The picnics, brought by ourselves or prepared by José are great as well. Even Cava or wine was served at the picnicsl! I would recommend this place and these trails to everyone who loves nice horses, beautiful trails, friendly people and good food!! I would love to go there again!!!

We were a cheerful group of 4 riders, including 3 "repeat visitors". The trail was new to all participants and every one of our group marvelled at the challenging terrain. I've been riding for almost 40 years and have seen and experienced a lot and I've ridden all over the world, but nowhere have I ridden through such rocky and steep terrain as on this trail! Unbelievable and a real adventure! On steep downhill climbs the horses were led - safety first! I learned to trust horses more, they can accomplish much more than we dare to imagine!! Extremely sure footed they climbed like mountain goats up and down! The landscape gave us lots to see. The scenery from the cliffs was of lovely bays and we even had the opportunity to picnic in two of those beautiful bays. As we rode through Cadaques in bright sunshine, the hooves of our horses echoed in the streets - a very special place. Our guides were excellent and together with the best horse sense and good management, they contributed to equally good chats and great entertainment - keep it up!! Thanks Denise, Anais, Rudi and all other helpers, caterers and hosts. Not to forget... the horses! See you again soon...

I wanted to thank you and your organisation for a fabulous week !!! Nacho made all the difference with his experience and keeping my girls safe and his good sense of humour, we had a blast ! Also, Jose's well thought lunches and the consideration for Lemonis nut-allergy is really appreciated! All the horses are fantastic, just thinking of the trail and the challenges... What stars!! Beautiful horses... Now being back home we miss them still ;-) Warm regards,

Wendy!

I had a amazing time during this absolutely fabulous trail!

I was the "green one" in the group but every thing exceeded my expectations and I had a blast! Horses were so well trained and sweet, international group was funny and helpful, and of course the trail it self was the most beautiful with changing landscape from poppy fields to seaside and everything between. Most important thing for the successful trail was our great guide Nacho, who made us feel safe by showing great horsemanship and knowledge of human nature :) I really lived my dream!

I'm sure to attend next year again!

KInd regards
