About Us

In the Company of Horses

GallopGo Stables was born from a simple belief: that the bond between horse and rider is one of the most powerful and rewarding connections a person can experience.

Nestled in the heart of Kitisuru Estate, Nairobi, and bordering the breathtaking Karura Forest, GallopGo has grown into one of Kenya’s premier equestrian destinations. From riding lessons and guided trail rides to unforgettable adventures in the Maasai Mara, we create experiences that bring people closer to horses, nature, and themselves.

Every horse in our care is carefully selected, professionally trained, and looked after with the highest standards of welfare. Every rider who walks through our gates — whether a curious six-year-old taking their first lesson or a seasoned equestrian refining their craft — is welcomed with warmth, professionalism, and genuine passion for horsemanship.

We are more than a riding school or a stable. We are a place where confidence is built, friendships are formed, and a lifelong love for horses begins.

Our purpose is simple: to Fuel Your Equestrian Fire.

There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a man. — Winston Churchill

Our Values

Safety & Care

The welfare of our horses and the safety of our riders guide every decision we make at every yard.

Community

We are building Kenya’s most vibrant equestrian community, one stride at a time.

Excellence

From the condition of our tack to the quality of our instruction, we hold ourselves to the highest standard of horsemanship.

We had such an amazing experience at GallopGo Horse Riding School! My daughter and I truly enjoyed every moment of our ride. From the moment we arrived, the customer service was absolutely top-notch- warm, professional, and very welcoming.
The trainers are incredibly friendly, patient, and clearly passionate about what they do. You can tell the staff are well-motivated and genuinely committed to training and ensuring everyone feels comfortable and confident.
We had the pleasure of riding Almasi and Socks — such gentle, well-trained, and friendly horses! They made the experience even more memorable for us.
The ambience is just perfect — calm, peaceful, and noise-free. It’s such a chill environment, making it ideal for both kids and adults to relax and fully enjoy the experience.
I would highly recommend this school to anyone looking to enroll themselves or their children in horse riding. It’s not just a lesson, it’s a beautiful experience worth every moment! 🐎✨

An excellent place to learn horse riding in Nairobi. The trainers are highly skilled, patient, and genuinely passionate about horses, which makes learning both safe and enjoyable. The owners are professional, welcoming, and clearly care about maintaining a high standard for both riders and horses.

The environment is perfect for beginners, while also offering strong guidance and progression for intermediate to advanced riders. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to refine your riding skills, this place delivers on every level.

I highly recommend it — without a doubt one of the best places to learn about horses and horse riding in Nairobi.

Very very nice guy at the stables!!! Super welcoming and friendly. I loved close encounters with giraffes, zebras and other animals) no gallop, but we could trot. Lovely morning experience for a very fair price 🙂
