Your Guest Ranch for Horse Riding Holidays in Djerba island
Services we offerWe are Djerba Zitouna Stables
Welcome to Zitouna Stables – Riding in Harmony on Djerba!
Come and discover an unforgettable horseback riding holiday on the beautiful island of Djerba.
At Zitouna Stables, our small, family-run ranch, everything revolves around horse welfare, respect, and connection. Our Berber and Berber-Arabian stallions live as socially as possible on sandy paddocks and are cared for with attention and love. They are kind, well-trained, and reliable, yet also forward-going, responsive, and a joy to ride.
Our riding holidays are exclusively designed for experienced riders. Together, we explore Djerba’s wide, open landscapes, enjoying a forward pace whenever the terrain allows. Safety, control, and respect for our horses always come first. For us, riding is not about racing or chasing speed, but about enjoying the ride in harmony with our horses and the beautiful surroundings.
You can choose a program that focuses on riding and exploring the island on horseback. For those who wish to deepen their experience, we also offer optional groundwork, horsemanship, and lessons in the style of Centered Riding, helping you improve your balance, breathing, and seat while strengthening your communication with the horse.
Whether you come for the freedom of long rides, the connection with our horses, or the opportunity to develop your horsemanship, we aim to create a personal and memorable experience in small groups.
Come and experience the beauty of Djerba, the joy of riding, and the special bond between horse and rider.
Welcome to Zitouna Stables – where experienced riders and happy horses come together in harmony.
