NEW HORSE & NEW CAMP ~ African horseback adventure

[@magicaltrails]

And what is it with Simon's leg? I swear he has a perfect leg position ALL THE TIME--regardless of different saddles, galloping, whatever. It just never changes. He is superhuman LOL.

[@amyprestonn]

the location, the people, the filming, the editing, the animals and the horses. just wow. massive kudos to everyone involved, so beautiful and such a fantastic video meg!

[@elphick.event.ponies]

So lovely, thanks very much!

[@ashleapelger5358]

​@@elphick.event.ponies that horse had what's called birdcatcher spots

[@esthers.9185]

The Sunscreen War of 2024 between you and Simon has me in fits of giggles. So fun to see you all joking around in addition to witnessing such wonderous scenery and wildlife. Big thanks to you, the Horizon Horseback team, and Pete for all this great footage!

[@elphick.event.ponies]

Thanks so much! I was laughing watching it back 😂

[@Katy.Lou.K]

The sun cream 😂😂😂😂 I love love love these vlogs with Simon. I do miss Hobbs and Han tho! Love from California🏔️🌲🌧️🩵

[@kincsototbagi4705]

It’s such a breath of fresh air to see horses being treated right! They are well-muscled and taken care of, knowing how to carry themselves. I am also very catious with riding in foreign countries, but this looks fab!❤

[@AnnabelleTheDark]

With all this EPIC photage it really felt like you took us with you on this journey! And I for one really needed it, sitting at home with a broken knee not being able to ride my horses for at least 4 months. You really deserved this oportunity and thank you for sharing it with us

[@elphick.event.ponies]

So kind of you, thank you! Hoping your knee gets better soon ❤

[@suzannechance5876]

Nice job Pete!

[@jessicahigdon3962]

Great video Meg. Awesome filming Pete. What an epic adventure.

[@Mollytheequestrian]

[@Mollytheequestrian]

OMG dream came true on Sunday Meg! When i walked off from meeting you at the equine show, I literally cried! I love you so much Meg!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤ and my mum got some AMAZING photos of us talking! Thank so much!!!! ( by the way I was the one in the blue ariat gilet, you probably won’t remember because you had ssooooooooooooooooo many people meeting you! )

[@murieldrewery8773]

Whoa 😮love the views from the sky. It looks amazing the canter along the herd of zebra. Beautiful! ❤

[@rebeccaatkinson6411]

Now I have to start saving $$ . This is on my bucket list !! I bet Simon wants to take that Steed home with him !!

[@colleenw8756]

What an honour and privilege to see these animals in the wild. Tho my joints hurt me anyway, how I wish......😮

[@sparkle.-buggg3610]

Utterly fantastic living the dream and the way the little mare just followed you incredible thanks guys ❤

[@VIPEqTHud]

I love Africa so much. Glad you had such a fab trip. If you ever need music for an atmospheric remix, - Johnnie Clegg is Fab. The chorus from scatterings of africa would work really well

[@rachaelkirby3467]

I went to the equine show today saw Freddy steel, amazing stunt rider, met Geoff billington and Georgia from Lillipet. Amazing day. X

[@rachaelkirby3467]

I went to the equine show today on the Sunday also and saw a talk with Meg and Charlotte dujardan, both amazing people. I had a question for Meg but unfortunately didn’t get chance to ask her so I have messaged her on messenger if you get chance to reply I’d appreciate it. Thanks Rachael kirby

[@Strideway_WithHarperr]

met Megan, Charlotte dujardin, Kieran, and that’s it we mostly were in machara 😂

[@sarahcooper3378]

Again, what a fabulous experience. I thought the bay Simon was on, at the begining of this vlog, was a superb horse. She really stood out to me. Looking forward to the best vlog.

[@horsecare.skincare]

Well done, Horizon for whomever noticed the sore back and let that horse stay behind! Sounds like they put the horses first, which is awesome to see!!

[@juliabanes204]

LOL yup, we ride with longer stirrups! @Horizon - thanks for taking care of these jokesters and showing them the beauty in our country!

[@elphick.event.ponies]

Such a stunning country

[@juliabanes204]

@@elphick.event.ponies thank you! Hopefully you didn't get too much loadshedding while you were here! Out of the many things i will say about SA, is our ability to turn things into a joke and make a good laugh!

[@ShaneGilbert-cx4th]

I addmeryou ALL for sharing your journey, AND a BIG thank you to Pete for ALL his filming .TAKE CARE ALL. 😄😄😄😄👍👍👍👍 AND a BIG thank you to ALL the staff .

The lodges are beautiful. What a fabulous experience for you all

[@PixiesPoniesEvents]

Oh wow! These South African vlogs have been awesome. I have loved them all 😎🐴🦄💜

[@debbieredmon5063]

Some gorgeous footage! Thanks Pete! It must be the best way to go on safari. The animals are not as worried having horses around and I think it must give you the best perspective. Loving this whole series!

[@valerieboyce7644]

Wow...fantastic video. Next best thing to being there! Thank you so much for taking us along.❤

[@indiapearce3173]

Omg love these African videos they are so amazing and I hope you enjoyed your time there looks absolutely amazing with all of the views you can see ❤❤😮🎉 and al of those animals ❤

[@beccalu04]

Such a special video… I’m loving this series so so much, especially with the three of you, you all get on so well. Having me smiling and giggling the whole way through ❤ this is definitely the dream one day!!

[@LindaBell-444]

The scenery is just… wow.

[@katrinajoyce6658]

What an amazing experience that must be, it almost looked as though uz were going to walk under it like a bridge lol an the zebra’s basically galloping along side, what a great video Meg & Pete xx

[@DeborahLunt-r7k]

Loved it, I especially loves the loose horse and how she'd go off on her own in the bushes like a naughty child, so cute

[@chellsmia]

What an amazing trip been great following your time at Horizon Horseback thank you for sharing your amazing time there

[@elphick.event.ponies]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@vanessarogers7546]

The whole video is incredible, but I think watching Desert Rose freely galloping with everyone was magical.

[@sun1one1]

Love that landscape!

[@sheblyne]

Thank you so much for taking us all along for the ride. The quality of these vlogs has been nothing short of outstanding!

[@biggothepiggo]

I love how you take the time to bond with every horse you meet, whether it's on a trip or during vlogmas or whatever. It's so lovely! Never change! (And of course this was epic and so meaningful to me as I am headed there in the fall).

[@elphick.event.ponies]

So kind, thank you ❤️

[@abbebladon]

I don’t know who your videographer is but he deserves a pay rise 😂😉😂 totally jealous, what a totally phenomenal experience xxx

[@GraniteLensMedia]

Oh he definitely deserves a pay rise. Come on Meg!

[@abbebladon]

@@GraniteLensMedia I hoped you’d see this Pete! 😂 awesome job! What an experience, no Petes Eats though 😢 Those drone shots of the Zebra galloping along side the riders WAS INSANE!

[@GraniteLensMedia]

@@abbebladon Thanks! The awesome drone shots are down to Dr Tanya Baber, she aced them! Food was so good I couldn't wait for the cameras 😂

So cute isn’t he 🥹

[@magicaltrails]

So fabulous! I just don't know how you were able to return to regular life after that. It just seems like a fantasy! The drone footage is simply amazing.

[@elphick.event.ponies]

Has been a shock I won’t lie 😂

[@emilywhitehead5336]

What an amazing experience !!! I love that Maddie was running free with you 🩷🩷

[@aleash3907]

Watching desert rose come out of the woods mid canter to rejoin the group was so amazing! I can’t imagine how freeing and unique it must have felt cantering with a loose horse. You must have felt like you were riding with wild horses!

[@carolthorson7854]

A handy lesson you can take into your jumping Meg, horses have eyes and can do it themself, if you let them:)

[@zaktheadventuredog4024]

What an Amazing expericence!!!!! All of it was Awsome , its so good to everyone having a good laugh, lots of fun and food. The horses are incredible! xxxxx

Amazing amazing what a beautiful time you guys are having out there well I know your home now but wow. Meg you and Simon with the sun cream I was pmsl 🤣🤣. And aren’t the sunsets just gorgeous in Africa I love them. The splashing through the water was so much fun. All the footage on here was ace. I loved my time in Kenya but this riding the horses I would loved to have done that. This has been one of the best vlogs yet.tfs🤗🏇🤗

[@joseroquette917]

Amazing filming Pete, editing and all the animals

[@kippen64]

100 horses would indeed be too many horses. Five horses and a lifestyle that allows me to commit myself to them full time, would be grand.

[@Dusty1Charlie2]

Hiii meggy couldn’t wait for this blog ❤❤❤❤

[@colleenw8756]

Jens horse reminds me of Ben Cartwrights horse. Way back when.

[@GraniteLensMedia]

I think Simon needed a little more sun cream ☀️🤣

[@debbiewhite8981]

Great location epic journey.😊

[@kiaradoesart9682]

Just gotta say that Desert Rose is one SMART looking girl oml (Maddie is gorgeous too though- I love bays hehe) You had a lot of fun with the technology clearly! 🤭Beautiful shots! ETA: You were very correct to be wary of the buffalo!! Them and hippos are the ones to be careful of, even more than rhino or big cats 😨 ETA2: 50:35 cracked me up, you're both evil 😂

[@vezhopkins714]

wow so many animals glad you talked about the horse welfare side to, would have liked it if you highlighted a rescue shelter there to but all the horses at that place look lovely

So beautiful. Fun to see you all having such a blast. As someone they love, wondering about the mozzies or other bugs - do you get bitten by stuff?

[@elphick.event.ponies]

Shockingly I hardly got bitten out there, and I’m normally a target. I think I had maybe three bites in the two weeks we were there!
