Outlawtrails

Welcome to Outlaw Trails

We create and operate unique horse riding adventures in the Americas.

Our treks are authentic bespoke horse riding holidays, non-commercial expeditions, horse pack trips or long-rides which are designed for private groups – families and friends, universities, old West enthusiasts, corporate(s), charities and the military. These get you out there. Think a combination of Teddy Roosevelt panache, Ernest Hemingway fearlessness and Indiana Jones adventure – a heady mix.

If you’re interested in saddling a horse and exploring magnificent, pristine, off-beat country your way, call us. We look forward to riding with you…

Why bespoke?

Why be the same? We like originality and prefer something different. That’s how we travel. Handcrafted – personal. Your vision, our expertise.

Investigating possibilities

Accessing the most interesting places and remote outposts, peerless personal contacts allow us to offer proper non-commercial, authentic trips, geared for those seeking unique travel experiences. These are bespoke riding holidays – not in the guide books, travel magazines, off the shelf  nor are they tweaked from someone else’s brochure. This is breath-taking exploratory travel, delivering you a close to the bone vacation or in range terminology: “the Real McCoy”.

Handcrafting

Choose the region where you want to ride, when you wish to travel, with whom, for how long and what you’d like tailored in. If you have a theme in mind, please call. To confirm an engagement we/our suppliers always require deposits. Next we’ll discuss the facts, ask for your input and refine any elements. After scoping the remit carefully and establishing an itinerary, we secure your approval.  Then we talk to your party members and diligently ensure their needs can be properly balanced. Private, tailored, original, epic, inspiring…

What’s Happening?

August 10, 2011 – we’ve just relaunched today, so much going on behind the scenes.

Social Media

Tweets on Twitter and a Facebook page in the making – check them, like them (if you will!)

Telephone number - to come in October, (delayed due to office move) but service from the one listed onsite.

Partners

August 16, 2011 – the legendary R. Soles boutique in Chelsea, London will be our ‘partner’ for high quality and designer Western Boots, by Judy Rothschild. This is a real coup, a first. No-one has ever linked before! We are thrilled at O/T – the IT magic will follow shortly…

August 19, 2011 – ‘partner’ for all outdoor camp equipment will be our great friends in Tunbridge Wells, the Packyourbags Store. Best brands, terrific prices, big knowledge and top quality service to match!

More partners to come – we’re waiting for the corporate wheels to turn and say ‘yes’…

Please check in again – more updates to follow… it’s been slow due to the run-out of the summer break and an IT glitch

Events

There is nothing  inked in the diary for the Company or Simon just now.

We hope to be out and about – maybe a few horse shows, perhaps in the Autumn some travel expos’s/events and Simon may be doing  few book signings and talks on the epic ’99 expedition ride.

Please check in again later.

If you are an event planner, or need a speaker for an evening/event, please call us.
