🌟 Hello, everyone! I’m Meghan Brady, the proud founder of the Equestrian Travel Association (ETA). As an avid traveler and equestrian enthusiast, I’ve spent years exploring unique equestrian experiences, and along the way, I’ve met incredible people and discovered amazing places. However, I also encountered some outfitters and ranches that fell short of the high standards of horse care and customer service that our industry deserves.

This inspired me to create the ETA—a platform devoted to promoting excellence in equestrian travel. Our mission is clear: to ensure that every traveler enjoys safe, high-quality experiences while riding and exploring our beautiful country.

The ETA unites equestrian travel providers, outfitters, camps, clinics, ranches, and more, serving as the voice of our industry. We aim to raise public awareness, set uniform standards, and promote the fun and excitement of horseback travel through various media and events.

Join us as we strive to increase the quality of horse care, elevate guest services, and foster networking opportunities among our members. Together, we can raise the bar for equestrian travel and share our passion with the world! 🐴✨

When choosing the perfect riding vacation for your skill level, start by assessing your own riding abilities and experience. Here’s a helpful tip:

**Research and Match Your Skill Level with Destination Options:**

1. **Identify Your Level:** Be honest about your riding proficiency—are you a beginner, intermediate, or advanced rider? Knowing your level will guide your search for suitable destinations.

2. **Read Descriptions Carefully:** Look for vacation packages that clearly state the skill levels they cater to. Reputable riding vacation providers will often specify whether their experiences are designed for beginners, experienced riders, or somewhere in between.

3. **Seek Recommendations:** Sign up to receive the Equestrian Travel Guide newsletter, follow equestrian forums or social media groups to ask for recommendations from fellow riders who have traveled before. They can provide insights into which destinations are best for your skill level.

4. **Consult with Providers:** Don’t hesitate to reach out to tour operators or stables directly. Ask them about their programs and whether they can tailor the experience to match your abilities.

5. **Look for Instructional Options:** Consider vacations that offer lessons or guided rides, especially if you’re looking to improve your skills while enjoying the experience. This can make the trip enjoyable and beneficial for your riding development.

By carefully evaluating these factors, you can ensure that your riding vacation is not only enjoyable but also suitable for your skill level, allowing you to make the most of your equestrian adventure!
