Swimming with horses – Being with Horses
If you want to experience man, animal and nature in harmony, you will experience a wonderful time in Buccoo at the “Swim & Trail” near Veronika and Lennon with their “Being with Horses” Team.
Due to her German roots Veronika is now and then also present in our media with this project. Her inspiring life story has now also been documented in the great book “In der Ferne scheint das Glück” *. Its history is impressively described, including the founding of “Healing with Horses”, the therapeutic part of the facility. When purchasing the book via our partner link * we will invest all proceeds in the purchase of halfters and hand them over to the herd during our next visit to Tobago.
“Being with Horses” offers tourists the opportunity to gain an insight into the facility and take a ride on the beach and in the (!) sea with the therapy horses.
Forget the sad sight of horses from other holiday areas that have not been adequately cared for and kept in an appropriate manner. Enjoy the partnership and respectful treatment of the animals here.
After a warm welcome the animals are introduced including their respective history. Then the animals choose the partner you want to spend the tour with – a great experience. After a short but sufficient introduction, which is absolutely sufficient even for people without any riding experience – we slowly walk through the village to the beach. Small circles of trees on the beach create a great feeling between rider and horse and offer great photo motifs (each tour is accompanied by a photographer who offers the photos on CD at a fair price at the end). After the ride through the surf, we head to the highlight – the “swimming” on the horse. Let yourself be infected by the energy and joy of the animals! Finally, there are delicious palm fronds as rewarding snacks and a refreshing shower for your new four-legged friend.
