Eleven years ago, I came to Egypt by chance and stumbled upon three horses on a beach in heart-breaking condition. I couldn’t walk away. I rescued them and built a small stable in Dahab, determined to give them the life they deserved.






I’m Emma, founder of Ride Egypt.
Step by step, I researched how to care for working horses in Egypt, learning and growing as I went. My little stable of three became nine, and as my herd grew, so did my knowledge of the equestrian travel world. With every new adventure across Egypt – from the deserts to the Nile, from temples to the Red Sea – Ride Egypt began to take shape, inspired by the places I explored and the horses I loved.
Today, 12 years later, my herd has grown to 45 beautiful, well-loved Arabian horses. They are the soul of Ride Egypt, full of zest for life, trust, and power. To ride them is to feel freedom: the wind rushing past, their hooves dancing beneath you, their happy nickers carrying across the sunshine. They are not just our partners on the journey, they are your hosts, welcoming you into their home, and ours.
Each of our holidays is personally designed and guided by myself and my team, combining Egypt’s world-famous wonders with hidden treasures, authentic encounters, and unforgettable moments in the saddle.
From the moment you arrive until the moment you leave, we welcome you not just as a guest, but as part of our tribe.
Come as a guest. Leave as a friend.
The Team
