Incredible experience. A solid 5 stars. My husband and I were fortunate to partake in a β€œprivate tour” with Elyn- Dublin and Cowboy! Elyn demonstrated extensive knowledge about vineyards, horses, and ensured the trip was enriching and captivating. Regarding the horses, which I was initially apprehensive about due to prior negative encounters elsewhere, Cowboy and Dublin proved to be remarkably well-trained and intelligent. I have never felt safer while horseback riding. I highly recommend paying them a visit; a family-owned business providing exceptional service. We will be back!! Ps with your exprience you get voucher for wine tasting at Danza del Sol, right next doors, where we met Karen, incredible wine expert. Best evening in long time . Thank you

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best for families where adults and older children want to try riding for the first time. The patient guides and gentle horses make this one of the more accessible entry points into horseback riding. Very young toddlers may be too small to ride, and staff handle that gracefully β€” the family experience isn't diminished for those who can't mount up.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

πŸ’‘No prior riding experience needed β€” guides match horses to skill level and pace instruction accordingly
⏰Very young toddlers may be below the minimum size to ride, confirm with the venue beforehand
🎟️A wine tasting voucher at a neighboring vineyard is included β€” adults can use it post-ride
πŸš—Private tours offer a more personalized pace than group rides

β€œDefinitely a highlight of the trip! The horses were well taken care of and we did a trail ride along the vineyards. Even though the vines are dormant for the winter during February and pruned, it was still a great scenic route. We learned about the horses and some history about the vineyards. They match you up by skill level with the horses and are very friendly here.”

β€œMy family and I a great experience riding horses here! None of us had much riding experience and the staff were friendly and patient with us, helping us feel confident. The horses themselves are gentle and well-behaved, the ride is mostly on easy vineyard trails which also gives you an interesting look at what goes into your glass of wine.”
