Beautiful horse ride through Losee canyon near Bryce Canyon national park. My horse Little B was well behaved along with all the others.

The ride was nice but not as advertised. The pictures shown were on top of the canyon and in some wide-open areas as well as through the canyon. It was not a 4-hour ride. The trip started at 1:00 meeting place with a 20–25-minute ride to the horses and then back again to the meeting place. Then it takes about 1/2 hour to get everyone saddled up. So, you may be riding for about 2 hours which is great for most people. The ride is not alongside or through Bryce. It's through Red Canyon which was very pretty but don't expect Bryce. The horses were very good. Our guide Skylar was very nice and had a dry sense of humor. Overall, I would recommend it if you never rode through a Canyon before.

Group of 6 was just right. I really enjoyed the 1/2 day ride. Was well worth it

This is one of the best experiences in my life. Big B was amazing and little B is the best horse ever.
This was worth it.

We rode the Thunder Mountain 4 hour ride today. Our guide Jeff was the best. Very knowledgeable and friendly. The horses were healthy, fit, and well behaved. And I am an equine veterinarian and experienced rider. The views were amazing and the trail excellent. Some technical trail so not suitable for inexperienced riders.

Beautiful scenery, and a great experience for a beginner. The riding instructions were easy to follow and the horses had a mild temperament. Thank you for such a fun time!

Guides told stories and joked around making the ride enjoyable for both the adults and kids. Everyone from check in to guides had great personalities and made it so fun every one wants to go again soon!

We had very enjoyable horseback riding experience. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, the horses were in excellent shape pretty easy to handle. It was a beautiful canyon ride.

The beauty of Red Canyon and the opportunity to share together. The horses were well trained and easy for a beginner.
Nancy_S, Sep 2021
The ride was long and repetitious. Our guide barely spoke to us and largely ignored the riders at the back of the pack.
Christopher_C, Sep 2021
The Cowboys were great and insightful leading our group and Kronk my horse was a smooth easy ride. I had a chance to ride with a Cowboy that just turned 18 with great stories. This kid even shared pictures of his recent rodeo championship in a national high school championship. I say all of this to say that these Cowboys were welcoming wanting a great experience for us just the same as i hoped to experience.
Chushan_H, Jul 2021
It was greatly appreciated. It was a beautiful surprise scenery. Super cowboys knows well on the trails

We went in July at 1:00. Definitely our least favorite experience of our 7 stop RV tour across UT and AZ. The trip is a solid 3 hours and for our family was a long time on a horse. Half the time would have been great. We did trot a few bits if a horse was behind but outside of that was pretty slow hot ride. Our guide was awesome but not our favorite tour.
Lori_T, Jun 2021
Our guide Paige was just terrific. Wonderful peaceful ride through Red Canyon with my family. Horses were beautiful and easy to ride. Highly recommend!

Riding thru the pines with a nice cool breeze then breaking out onto the rim ..I’ve walked the rim a few times but on a horse was just stunning
