Join this unique internship on a popular Game Reserve in the breathtaking Zimbabwe Midlands.
As an Intern you will gain experience in the daily running and management of an African stable, which caters for horse-riding lessons, horse safaris, carriage safaris and the sports of Polo and Polo Crosse.
Interns will assist with leading some of these activities, as well as participating in hands-on work within the stable, and most of the work undertaken will be riding orientated, such as schooling horses, guiding rides, fitness training, lessons and occasional wildlife management exercises on horseback. You'll also have a chance to explore the game reserve on horseback - an opportunity not to be missed!
