I was shocked to read some of the comments on here and can only think they were not riding with Omar's. I rode here 3 times during my holiday, alone in the desert with young Ali Baba, and it was excellent, with absolutely no inappropriate behaviour. Ok, at 58 maybe not to be expected, but I did experience it on... More

4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 February 2012

only one reason why not for 5 stars was that some security things were not on that level what I demand: helmet and boots. Of course I´v got a helmet right away when I asked. Second thing was "free tee" in beduin tent what wasn´t free after riding..have to pay anyway. But very nice guide & horses ü!

I booked a 2hr horse ride with Omar riding club and pleasantly surprised especially after reading a couple of the negative reviews. I explained to the guide, that as a first time rider, I was very nervous and would need guidance and was reasurred he would do so, which he did and did not experience any inappropriate behaviour towards me...

The guides are rude, and are perverts.There is only one stable, and all the agents use this one, so be aware. Guide tounched one of our members inappropriately. We complained, and were told the guide will be fired. We paid 100EP each for the trip. The horses were not kept well.

i have ridden at a few stables in sharm and have found the best to be Nabq Heights riding stables. I wasn't keen on Omar riding club as I thought the staff were inexpereienced when it came to caring for the horses and it was a one pace ride no matter how well you could ride.

I have just returned from my holiday and wanted to write a review on these stables right away to warn others with a conscience to stay clear of these stables. We booked the riding trip through our hotel (Sea Club Resort), I have horses of my own and whilst I was expecting these horses to be lot leaner due to... More

I have ridden at Omar Riding Club a number of times now. Having had horses for 40 years, I appreciate the difference between thin and unfit and lean and fit. Theses horses are a much finer and leaner build than our horses because they are bred to do a different job and work hard in extreme heat, just look at... More

My boyfriend and i went to Sharm el sheik and it was fantastic. We did a couple of excursions and Omar Riding Club was definatly the best by far! My boyfriend had never been on a horse before but he was soon galloping through the desert into the sunset!. The scenery was amazing like nothing youve ever seen. We also... More
