    Unexpectedly fun! At first I thought it was simply gonna be a ride around town and it was starting to feel underwhelming. But the guide soon led us to a more "jungle-like" path with amazing viewpoints! It was a relaxing and calming ride. The horses were docile and seemed well-kept. I appreciated that my guide allowed me to go at my own pace. It was tranquil and I liked it a lot.

    The friendly atmosphere, scenery and tour guide Isaac made it spectacular. It was my hubby and I only so it felt like a private event. Much appreciated and highly recommended for a long ride.

    We had a great time on our trail ride. It was pretty neat to ride thru the streets of Banos and then cross a stream on the trail.
