Cultural Education

“This season of Equitrekking is our most diverse yet. From riding with the Bedouin in the Middle East and through vineyards in Uruguay to visiting spice markets in Istanbul and pristine parks in the USA, we cover the globe and introduce viewers to the world’s most exotic and accessible destinations,” said Darley.

“With local people as our guides, viewers are let in on a more personal take on travel and world cultures.”

On a two-episode journey through the Middle Eastern country of Jordan, Darley rides with the Bedouin in the spectacular Wadi Rum Desert, explores magical Petra, hikes Jordan’s version of the Grand Canyon, snorkels in the Red Sea and floats in the Dead Sea.

In the well-preserved Roman city of Jerash, Darley tries NASCAR’s ancient counterpart, dressing in Roman garb and hopping a ride on a horse drawn chariot.

To gain insight into the history and characteristics of the Arabian breed, Equitrekking gains exclusive access to the Royal Stables, where Darley interviews HRH Princess Alia on an insider’s tour.
