Trusted, experienced and deeply valued
We were incredibly fortunate to get to know Lies Hendriks when she joined Mozambique Horse Safari as a volunteer. She was an absolute pleasure to have with us - an excellent guide, a skilled horsewoman and someone who quickly became a very valued member of our team.
We are delighted to see her launch Soulstride. Having ridden extensively across Africa and spent significant time at a variety of safari operations through Southern Africa, Lies brings a deep understanding of what to look for in a horse riding holiday. We highly recommend booking through her!

Driven by purpose, grounded in care
Working with Lies at Khotso Lodge & Horse Trails was an unforgettable experience that perfectly reflects the spirit behind her work at Soulstride Africa. From the moment she arrived, she brought a rare combination of professionalism, warmth and genuine passion for people, horses and the surrounding community.
She embodies the essence of responsible travel and cultural exchange and it’s clear that her vision with Soulstride Africa is rooted in creating experiences that are not only memorable, but also meaningful and respectful.
I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a guide, host or collaborator. She is dedicated, trustworthy, and deeply inspiring - someone who leaves a lasting impression wherever she goes.
