Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

One of the very picturesque places in Nuwara eliya. The place is very peaceful and does not attract much tourists. You can enjoy ponney ride here and get a good view of the mountains nearby. A good place to spend a couple of hours.

I am not sure, wether this is the right place for writing a comment.
In front of the Royal Turf Club you can get some horse riding. It’s a real rip off, the course is shorter than they tell. And they are charging much more than agreed to make some money on their own, which they are not passing to the owner. Coincidentally we met the owner and there was a big argue about it. All in all it’s not a good experience.

I would prefer if we could get to ride Horses based on a package( 3 different rates and roots) and guides to accompany too. As I never want to ride ponies, and other half breeds... I know as this was soon after there racing season and they could be high on certain vitamins :) you know what I mean... Hopefully looking forward to doing this next time ...

Not sure if this is the right place to review but my whole fammily had a horse riding session near the turf club. Bargaining is the name of the game ! Please don't agree to the prices they say. Whatever they can be negotiated.
