Xina Horse Riding School
About
Coaches are patient, professional, and excellent with kids who learn and improve quickly, and the place is incredibly peaceful — a real escape from city noise. Book before you go or you might wait, but the horses are well-trained, the staff are welcoming (Xina even did video recording for one guest), and it's great for training or just an experience ride.

My two kids absolutely love riding at Xina Horse Riding in Nairobi! The coaches are excellent, very patient, professional, and great with children. I've seen my kids learn and improve so quickly thanks to their guidance. The place itself is incredibly peaceful, a perfect escape from the noise of the city. Every visit feels relaxing and enjoyable for the whole family. We truly like it a lot and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a calm, friendly, and well-run horse riding experience.

The place is well located and the staff are very polite and ready to help. There is ample parking. There are several horses available. However, it's advisable to book before going, because sometimes you might find them busy, thereby resulting in long wait times before you ride a horse.
