The Main Event

If you’re looking for a gift to make little faces light up, these Donkey Rides for Kids are a winner!

Set on a peaceful, family-run farm near Guildford in the Surrey countryside, this experience is all about getting outdoors, and letting children connect with gentle, well-loved animals. The team here are passionate about animal welfare and creating a calm, friendly environment where kids can feel confident and excited from the moment they arrive.

Designed especially for children (sorry grown-ups, this one’s just for them!), the experience begins with meeting their new four-legged friend. These donkeys are known for their kind nature, making them the perfect companions for little ones who may be trying something new for the first time.

Before the ride begins, your child will get involved with grooming and giving their donkey plenty of fuss and attention. It’s a lovely way to build confidence and create that all-important bond, plus it makes the whole experience feel extra special.

Then comes the highlight: a gentle, guided ride around the farm. With a riding hat provided for safety, children can relax and enjoy the journey while taking in the peaceful surroundings. Keep an eye out along the way too, you never know what wildlife might make an appearance!

The whole experience lasts around an hour, making it the perfect length for younger children.

A simple, feel-good experience that little animal lovers will be talking about long after the day is done.
