  The horses were well trained. It is a long ride which we enjoyed. We did sunset tour which had beautiful views. A wonderful experience! The guides were friendly and helpful and dinner afterwards was a wonderful local treat. I highly recommend for people with some riding experience given the rugged terrain

  The Half Day Trail Riding was a wonderful experience! Three of us did this, and we all enjoyed it tremendously. We did the afternoon tour, and had a fabulous meal after the ride. We were picked up by Victor, exactly on time, and he was a wonderful guide. We enjoyed everything about this experience. My 22-year old granddaughter said that this excursion was the favorite activity she did during our 9 day trip to San Miguel de Allende and Mexico City. The horses were great, and the 3 trail guides (Victor and two Mexican horsemen) were fantastic! Highly recommend!

  Victor our quite was delightful. The cowboys were great also. I loved my sweet horse Apache. All the horses are well trained and cooperative. We were able to gallup a few times which was fun. After the ride we were treated to a wonderful lunch! I highly recommend this experience!

  Everything on this trip ran like a well-oiled machine. Beth picked us up in town where we were staying at an Air BNB rental. We drove out to the Ejido on the Southern outskirts of town and met the horses and cowboys. The horses were well behaved, sure footed and in great physical condition (obviously well cared for). Our family of three adults were joined by another young couple making the excursion. Two out of the 5 had some riding experience and it was one person's first day to get on a horse. No problem for Beth; she provided clear instructions to all and gave extra attention staying closely with the first day rider for comfort and safety. There were four guides riding with our group of five. We travelled through the beautiful high-desert country side climbing and descending and overlooking some of the canyon areas along the Virgen river. It was the dry season when we went, I would like to do it again during or after the rainy season when the desert comes to life and there would be some running water in the arroyos. After the ride we had a delicious and fresh meal prepared by ladies from the Ejido. A great time was had by all.

  The ride was amazing. Both cowboys were great and accommodating with each of our riding skills. Great views and dinner was wonderful. The only downside was that it was the dry season. Would definitely book again.

  Beth is a consummate hostess. The wranglers made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves. They were even kind enough to let me and one cowboy go ahead running as I am experienced rider- and I didn’t ask. The scenery is beautiful and much very good. Will go again

  A terrific experience for our family on many levels. The cowboys and villagers were very welcoming. The ride took us through beautiful countryside with myriad types of foliage and dramatic gorges and scenery. It was also great to ride through the little hamlets and see how families live in ranch and farm country outside of San Miguel. The hearty dinner served after the ride was made with local produce, meats and cheeses and was absolutely delicious. Finally, we were lucky in that we had a great guide accompany us -- a retired gentleman who had a very successful career in the United States and now lives in SMA. He was extremely interesting and informative.

  Very enjoyable- from our pick up driver who also joined the ride to our to cowboys who went along and accommodated all our requests. I have not been on a horse in 30 years and they made it a piece of cake. Food was plentiful and delicious. We really enjoyed all of it. Valerie

  From the time we got picked up to the time we got dropped off, the service was the very best. The trails were 100% legit, the cowboys, the guide and the horses were all exceptional. After the trail ride we were given a buffet style lunch which was very delicious. We had no experience on horses but didn’t need it. Don’t think twice take the tour!!

  From start to end this was a great experience. Beth was easy to talk with and responded quickly. Since I have horses at home and ride a lot I was worried that it might just be a beginner experience, but it exceeded all my expectations - for speed, quality of mounts and all around enjoyable time. We were there with another family that had less experience so they were able to separate us so that we could go on a faster ride. Our guides were great- they checked in with us often about the speed and if we wanted to go faster, but they were safe and took care of their animals. I was also happy to see well-fed and happy horses that knew their job well. The equipment was also of good quality and comfortable for a trail ride.
