Saddle baptism – Children and Youth

A very first approach with horses, but tailored for children!

The experience includes a brief groundwork phase where the foundations are laid for the creation of a bond and rapport between horse and rider, followed by getting into the saddle! Accompanied by a ground instructor, saddle activities will vary based on the readiness of the budding rider! It could range from a simple ride in the arena to a short exploration of the countryside around the stable.

This experience is subject to favorable weather conditions and ground conditions

Diacceroni ExperiencesExcellentDiacceroni Experiences4.9 Based on 296 reviews fromSee all reviews review us onSimona O.Simona O. ★★★★★ C'è una vasta scelta di esperienze che si possono vivere durante la vacanza, tra tutte noi abbiamo scelto la passeggiata a cavallo.È stata un'esperienza molto positiva grazie alla simpatia e professionalità di Airin.I cavalli sono molto docili e hanno tanto spazio per potersi muovere liberamente.La posizione degli agriturismi è spettacolare e si è completamente immersi nella natura.Da qui si possono facilmente raggiungere importanti città.Lo staff è molto disponibile e svolge il suo lavoro alla perfezione.È stata una vacanza indimenticabile e da rifare sicuramente.Response from the ownerCiao Simona,siamo commossi dalle tue bellissime parole di apprezzamento!Ti ringraziamo di cuore, ci fa davvero piacere sapere che siete stati bene in nostra compagnia e vi aspettiamo di nuovo, magari per provare un corso di pasta fresca o una caccia al tartufo 😉Un caloroso abbraccio da parte di tutto lo Staff 🤗 M. M.M. M. ★★★★★ Briilaint stay with Airin, Hassane and Kumar! We enjoyed pony riding and a one hour ride through Tuscany Feelds on the black horse Enzo! Our Kids have had fun!Response from the ownerThank you so much for the outstanding review! Francesca C.Francesca C. ★★★★★ Posto bellissimo e personale super accogliente e disponibile! Oggi siamo stati qui per una bellissima esperienza di caccia al tartufo, Elia ci ha trasmesso tutta la sua passione , insieme alla sua cagnolina Nura sono una coppia fantastica, esperienza super consigliata da fare!

Molto soddisfatta di aver scelto Agriturismo Diacceroni per questa giornata!Response from the ownerGrazie mille per questa bellissima recensione! Elia è uno dei nostri migliori membri dello staff, ci fa piacere che abbiate condiviso questa esperienza con lui. Tornate presto, vi aspettiamo!! Kiranjeet K.Kiranjeet K. ★★★★☆ My husband and I did the pasta class on our anniversary visit to Tuscany and it was absolutely amazing - definitely worth the price paid!There was only 1 other couple in the class, so it felt very personal and intimate rather than having a big group in the class. Our instructor was absolutely amazing - she was passionate, well informed, and fun, sharing a lot of knowledge and interesting facts with us and helping us out when needed. Everything was super clean and hygienicWe made multiple types of pasta, exploring different shapes and styles and then we were able to enjoy these pastas on the terrace in the Tuscan hills with beautiful views (it does end up being too much pasta to eat for 2 people but you can take it away if you don't want to eat it there). As vegetarians, we were well catered too as well. And to top it all off, we had profiteroles and ice cream for dessert!The only reason I haven't given 5* here is because one of the vegetarian sauces (a white nutty pesto sauce) didn't taste very nice at all - a green pesto or an arrabbiata might have been a better replacement!Would totally recommend this to anyone looking for an amazing pasta cooking class experience!Response from the ownerDear Kiranjeet,thank you for your kind words!We are happy to have made your anniversary so special and we are sure you will treasure all the secrets our teacher told you to prepare a delicious pasta!We hope you will be able to visit us soon for other exciting activities!Warm greetings from Tuscany!🌞 Carlo A.Carlo A. ★★★★★ Il corso di pasta fresca è stato bellissimo!!!

Aanvankelijk wel een beetje sceptisch (is this a tourist trap ;-))want we boekten dit een beetje lastminute dus weinig tijd gehad om de recensies te lezen van voorgangers. We verbleven ook op een uurtje rijden maar het was de rit zeker waard!!!Het personeel is supervriendelijk op een ongedwongen manier. Verwelkoming met koffie op een prachtig terras met uitzicht over de vallei. Ilenia leerde ons eerst hoe een goeie pasta deeg te maken. De uitleg was helder en veel ruimte voor vragen en interactie. Een glaasje prosecco erbij en dan zelf aan de slag met het maken van het deeg, het uitrollen en de verschillende pastavormen zelf maken met je handen als voornaamste instrument. Ilenia kwam helpen en bijsturen waar nodig. Steeds geduldig en vriendelijk. Ze kent haar vak!Het restaurant voorzag zelf drie heerlijke bijpassende sauzen: de eerste boter en salie voor bij de ravioli (divine), dan een eerlijke tomatensaus en als laatste een smaakvolle vlees/ragu saus. We konden zo onze eigen pasta opeten, vergezeld van een heerlijk glaasje wijn! Bediening was top! Dus over heel de lijn het geld waard. We gaan zeker thuis aan de slag (we kregen namelijk een certificaat) om onze vrienden te imponeren! EEN AANRADER! Anna en Rozanna, België.Response from the ownerDear Anna e Rozanna,thank you very much for your loving words! It is important for us to make our guests feel at home and teaching you the art of making pasta is a mission for our teachers! Ilenia is professional, funny and caring. Everybody loves her 😍We are sure you will make a delicious pasta at home and you will surprise your friends with your ability!Warm greetings from Tuscany! 🌞 Inga J.Inga J. ★★★★★ Beautiful place and great pizza course 👌Response from the ownerDear Inga,thank you !Now you will be able to make your own pizza at home and cook it for your family and friends like a skilful "Pizzaiola"!We will wait for you again at Agriturismo Diacceroni!

Vi aspettiamo presto!Un abbraccio da tutto lo Staff 🤗 luise N.luise N. ★★★★★ Mine 2 hesteglade piger har haft den bedste ferie i deres liv fordi de fik lov at hjælpe til i stalden og med at passe hestene. De tilbragte alle vågne timer i den stald og Airin har lært dem så meget om ridning og heste generelt. Selv i sin pause tog hun ridebøger frem og viste dem hvordan hestens muskler fungerer. De vil altid huske den uge og vi kommer helt sikkert igen og besøger dem. TAK 🥰Response from the ownerThank you so much for this outstanding review! Kumar and Hassane are two fundamental elements of our amazing staff, we are glad you had such a good experience with them, and we look forward to hosting you again soon !!! Thomas K.Thomas K. ★★★★★ Wir haben einige der Angebote von Diacceroni ausprobiert: Pasta- und Pizzakurs, Kräuterkunde und Reitstunden.Ilenia hat uns viele gute Tipps für den perfekten Pastateig gegeben und das Highlight war dann die Verkostung der selbst geformten Nudelteile auf der Sonnenterrasse mit perfekt abgestimmten Saucen. Die Ravioli in Salbeibutter waren der Hammer 🤩.Auch die Reitstunden bei Airin können wir wärmstens weiterempfehlen. Sie hat unsere Größte in den ersten Tagen sehr gezielt auf dem Reitplatz trainiert und der krönende Abschluss war dann der Ausritt durch die umliegenden Hügel. Auch wenn es nur 5 Reitstunden waren, hat sie mehr gelernt als sonst beim Reiten in der Gruppe.Abschließend möchte ich noch die allgemeine Herzlichkeit und Gastfreundlichkeit aller Diacceroni Mitarbeiter hervorheben, wir haben uns sehr wohl bei euch gefühlt! Vielen Dank für eine perfekte Urlaubswoche!Response from the ownerDear Thomas,Thank you so much for your outstanding review! We are very glad to hear that you enjoyed our cooking masterclasses, horse riding lessons, and herbal laboratory!We look forward to hosting you again soon! 🤩 Cristina M.Cristina M. ★★★★☆ Posizione strepitosa e buoni servizi. Il team della scuderia è molto professionale e disponibile, ti senti subito “a casa”. Eccellenti gli istruttori di equitazione. Però….. poveri cavalli!!! Nei paddock sotto il sole cocente, senza nemmeno una tettoia e senza abbeveratoi !!!!Response from the ownerCara Cristina,Grazie di cuore per la tua valutazione positiva! Siamo felici che tu abbia percepito lo spirito di amicizia e familiarità che ci caratterizza qui all'Agriturismo Diacceroni. I nostri cavalli sono affidati alle cure del mitico Stefano, che si assicura costantemente che siano accuditi e curati al meglio.Cordiali saluti,Agriturismo Diacceroni.Grazie per la tua valutazione positiva! Ci fa piacere che hai sentito lo spirito di amicizia e familiarità presente qui, all'agriturismo Diacceroni! js_loader
