Snaffle Travel

Fantastic experience: We recently had a wonderful time in Portugal. Our aim was to have a holiday that incorporated horse riding and allowed us to embrace local culture. Quinta de Falcao did not disappoint being even more than we had expected. Rui, his family and staff were welcoming and helpful. It was a privilege to be able to ride the horses; we enjoyed our lessons and trail rides Thank you Tania for all your recommendations and advice. We are already looking at further holidays with Snaffle Travel

Fantastic experience: I have travelled several times with Snaffle Travel and my recent trip to Aachen Germany and Paris. Cruise to south of France was incredible. Great friendships and great memories ❤️ enjoyed the guided tours of towns we explored. Hop on bus in Paris. Beautiful restaurants and delicious food. Learning the history and culture of each area we visited. Excellent accommodation choices and everything organised and planned.

Fantastic experience: If you have always wanted to attend an international equestrian competition, like the Aachen Horse Show, or enjoy an idyllic riding holiday in Ireland, Snaffle Travel are experts in facilitating your adventure. I’ve just returned from the Aachen Horse Show and a riding holiday in Ireland at Castle Leslie. The communication of information and confirmation of arrangements was prompt and first class. The competition, courses and venue at Aachen easily earns the best horse show in the world. So many of the classes had us on the edge of our seats with excitement. The arrangements made by Snaffle, hotel, transportation, horse show tickets and seating, walking tours, group gatherings made the trip easy. The added dimension of meeting other horse enthusiasts from around the world added camaraderie and warmth. Everyday was full and varied with free time and options for the activities I wanted to watch. Castle Leslie was an outstanding riding holiday destination. The accommodation was like a slice of another time, quiet, gorgeous, with brilliant service and choices in food and drink. I have been spoiled now for the quality of the food. The riding, beautiful. Lovely tree lined lanes, open grassy hills overlooking the lake and castle. Snaffle organized a program of riding that suited me, a mix of lessons and hacking. Small groups, qualified instructors and guides, reliable horses, well suited to their jobs made the riding enjoyable. I was very sad leave and return to the real world. I highly recommend Snaffle Travel.

Fantastic experience: Just back from our wonderful trip which was planned and organised by Tania at Snaffle Travel. It was tailor made to suit our style of travel. The accommodation and locations were spectacular. The planning and follow up provided by Snaffle Travel was second to none ! This was our 3rd trip organised by Snaffle Travel and each have been completely different and the service provided by Snaffle Travel has been spot on. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend the services provided by Tania.

Fantastic experience: Fabulous itinerary allowing as much free time as was wanted. Accomodation was spot on (Tania stated, tried and true) Tania and Linda were very informative in their own right. Linda, being an international dressage judge was such a mentor to me whetting my appetite for more high level dressage judging and masterclasses. The stadium seating provided was as good as it gets to have uninterrupted up close views of the riders in all disciplines. Other niceties were to have day trips just to break up the itinerary for those who wanted some more historical culture, like myself.

Fantastic experience: Aachen tour 2023 what can I say it was fantastic! Tania & Linda were the best! They kept you informed, made sure everything was ok and ensured you knew what was happening & when. They were so friendly & informative nothing was too much trouble. The group were all friendly and we had so much fun. I would not hesitate to recommend Tania and Snaffle Travel, they gave me the holiday of a lifetime.

Fantastic experience: My trip to CHIO Aachen was fantastic and I loved every minute of it. Right from the start our flight where good, our accomodation very comfy and our brekky was plentiful and yummy. Our seats at the venue where incredible and the tours of old town and trip over the border into Holland was all top notch and well planned. Tania is a superb host and thinks of every little detail to help make your trip super special and unforgettable. She also worked with us and helped plan and book our trip to other countries in Europe after Aachen. I have no hesitation in recommending Snaffle Travel to anyone and looking forward in doing another trip in the future.

Fantastic experience: Tania was so very thorough in every part of the process, giving us informed options for each of our stops in Europe and the UK. Her knowledge was great, communication was of the highest standard and she always followed through on any promises she made. Will definitely be using Snaffle Travel for our next overseas holiday.

Fantastic experience: I had a great time at Badminton Horse Trials and Royal Windsor Horse Show. Tania had organised a smooth running itinery with lots to see and do. She was very knowlegeable and accommodating to everyones needs. I would definitely travel with Snaffle Travel again.

Fantastic experience: Loved the experience at the Badminton Horse trials that was on my bucket list. There was so much to see and do as well organised by Snaffle travel for us. In a short time we sampled so much of the country that I would never do on my own.

Fantastic experience: I traveled to WEG in Tryon, North Carolina with Snaffle Travel in 2018 and could not have had a better trip. Tania had so many extra excursions organised for us that we got to see so much more than just the horse events. All our ticketing & transportation was handled beautifully, and even a hurricane didn't slow her down :)

Fantastic experience: Snaffle Travel was very easy to deal with and made Traveling easy. Everything was looked after, from time of boking until trip was finalised. I have done two trips to Aachen with add-ons and both were excellent. Great Accommodation, food, people and fabulous horses. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I went to Badminton with Snaffle Travel in 2016 and then to WEG in 2018. Both trips were wonderful experiences. Both times they also organised extra travel for me, and did a superb job. The itineraries were very well thought out. As a solo traveller, the small groups were inclusive and welcoming, terrific people, and Tanya was wonderful at meeting everyone’s needs. I highly recommend Snaffle Travel
