Escola de Equitação de Tavira (Centro Hípico de Tavira)

Escola de Equitação de Tavira, which also uses the name Centro Hípico de Tavira, was founded in 1999 by Vasco Fina Ajuda Júnior. It gives riding and carriage-driving lessons, with theory, arena and countryside practice, to adults and to children from the age of 3. The school also runs rides in the countryside and says it has 20 years of experience of the local routes. It organises children's birthday parties and equestrian baptisms, offers hippotherapy, and has stabling and livery for horses. For people with no riding experience it uses quiet, trained horses. It is open every day: 09:30 to 18:30 in winter and 08:30 to 20:00 in summer.
