What To Expect
Take a break from the glitz and glam of Las Vegas—and see a different, yet equally colorful, side of Nevada. Start your trip with convenient round-trip transportation from a Las Vegas hotel. Ride out into the Old West before the sun begins its descent.
Do your best cowboy or cowgirl impression as you mount your horse and ride into the Red Rock Canyon. The rust-colored walls and deep gorges are an impressive sight—especially during sunset.
Afterwards, enjoy an authentic Western barbecue next to a campfire. Steak, chicken, fish, or vegetarian options are available, plus sides of salad, cowboy potatoes, and baked beans. Toast to the night with cowboy s’mores.
After several hours out in nature, return to Las Vegas with a full belly.

What a way to get your "Cowboy" on! Loved the Sunset ride with BBQ dinner. My wife and I had an amazingly good time. Yes, it was a trail ride, but it did require some trust in your horse. We cut through some of the most interesting terrain. The trail was especially well thought out and well designed. There were inclines, drops, and it was a pretty rocky path. The horses new the way. We felt very secure and had excellent guides, with helmets available for use. The scenery was gorgeous. We chose the salmon dinner, which was spot on, given a 5 STAR review! We didn't feel at all short changed by the ride or our meal, although this is a pricier tour. It was THE BEST TRAIL RIDING EXPERIENCE, we've ever had. We've been on several over the years, even in Alaska. We can hardly wait to return, and try both the Breakfast ride and the Dinner ride, again. We highly recommend this tour. It was the best time we had while visiting Las Vegas, outside of the Eagles concert, at the Sphere. If you ever wanted to experience the wild west on horseback, this ride is for you. Very impressive setup. Very involved and caring staff. This is a great adventure.

This was the most fun! Our family completely enjoyed it. From the beautiful ride out to the ranch to the roasted marshmallows at the end of the night. This trip did not disappoint. The horses and mules were so sweet and the ride was perfect! Our cowboy meal was delicious with big ole steaks and plenty of good veggies. Thanks for the great night!
From start to finish this was hooves down an amazing adventure. Turning 60 this year, visiting Begas for some fun! Found this sunset ride and was immediately excited to book! They took car to fully inform us of everything each step of the way. The animals were another thing, so many personalities but it was great! The steak dinner after and s'mores too! Everything was superb! I'll be back if I get back to Vegas!
This was a great experience, a great way to see the Red Rock. They chose the horses for you to suit your height etc and gave you the instructions on how to ride the horses if you’ve never been on one before. It’s a steady chilled out ride around the trail. When finished we arrived back for dinner out in the air. Food was soooo good especially the steak, cooked to perfection, then they lit the fire pit for some toasted marshmallows and cookies. Great relaxing way to end the evening. Would highly recommend.
Had an amazing time! It was our first time horse back riding and the experience was absolutely perfect! The horses were so great, calm and knew the trail. Dinner was delicious and the staff were all super friendly, helpful and amazing! Definitely recommend and would do it again.
Thanks for a great evening.
I absolutely loved everything about it from start to finish. They were so helpful and friendly. :) loved my horse Mustang Sally too. lol
Best horseback riding experience ever from the time that you are greeted to when you leave. this is my fourth time riding with them and I totally enjoyed it. Keep them for this s’mores!
Expect great views, great people and amazing food.
The wranglers and chef were extremely helpful and friendly and happy to take time speaking with everyone.
This was an incredible experience, the wranglers were great, really helpful and the views were stunning. A real pinch me moment. I would highly recommend. The food was delicious as well i recommend the steak option best I’ve had for years!
Very good experience for anyone to try. Recommend it highly. Great food and people were so nice to us. Anyone can ride those horse's and mules. They were sweet and easy to ride. The scenery so peaceful and beautiful. Great to get away from the gambling atmosphere.
We loved the whole experience. My kids, 8 and 11 really loved the horses they rode. The dinner was fresh, hot and delicious. Our guides Jim and Love were amazing; attentive to everyones needs.
The most amazing experience from the horses to the riding to the food!! Such a beautiful location, we will be back for sure! Jennifer’s food was superb! Thanks all for an unforgettable experience
This is an amazing experience I’d highly recommend to anyone travelling to vegas. I can’t speak highly enough about the staff they are very friendly, informative and helpful.
I’ve done both the morning and evening trail rides and suggest the sunset, amazing views and lighting and a superb meal at the end of it.
Very beginner friendly. The horses are very good and doing the work for you and are relaxed. You don’t need to have ridden before.
Don’t miss out on this experience, it’s worth every penny. I’ll definitely be returning.
Such a great experience I will be back and I’ll bring my friends the chef was great I got the steak dinner it was delicious
A great trip for something a little different
A short ride away from the strip, the hot and dusty desert awaits, a walking pace ride, long trousers will help prevent chaffing, but not a necessity. No riding experience necessary the wranglers will guide you through it all.
You’ll be given a waiver to read and sign on the bus on the way, helmets are optional, you chose on the waiver.
The coral where you mount and dismount your horse has a lot of horse poop and due to the heat a very pungent smell, so didn’t wear your best trainers.
Overall and amazing experience, the foot was plentiful and tasted amazing, cold soft drinks and water await you at the ranch.
If you get the chance it’s definitely worth a visit
Fantastic night. Very laid back and not rushed. Our ride was about an hour and a half. Leisurely pace as you travel through the canyon. After, our meal ( we chose steak) was one of the most delicious pieces of meat we have ever had. And the steak was enormous. Afterwards we cooked s’mores by a fire pit and I was surprised how much fun it was. All of the employees were so friendly. You could stay as long as you wanted… It was up to you to tell your bus driver when you were done and ready to go home. I would highly recommend this experience.
Wow - the most incredible experience!!
Everything about it was amazing from start to finish - the cowgirls were lovely, the horses and mules so calm and friendly, the ride had the most beautiful scenery ever and to top it off, a lovely bbq dinner followed by marshmallows around the fire pit! I rode Elvis and my partner (who is a complete beginner) rode Millie and they were both so sweet and really looked after us! 10/10 experience, would thoroughly recommend! Thank you again ☺️☺️
Wranglers are very nice and professional! The views we seen were beautiful
The meal (I had Steak) was absolutely delicious!! And cowboy smores are better than the regular!! The roping was alot of fun to attempt. I need more practice but the Wrangler showd alot of patience and laughs!! Shout out to them DEFINITELY recommend this experience!!!
The horseback riding experience was my family’s favorite experience on spring break. The scenery was beautiful and we went over a little bit of difficult terrain. All of the horses were highly competent. The two guides that accompanied us were very professional and had great personalities. My family really enjoyed the time around the campfire, making s’mores afterward and talking to one of the guides as well as other guests..
Took the tour with my grown son and we loved it. The horses were friendly and easy to ride. The guides were knowledgeable and personable. The chef was friendly and very good. Well worth time and money.
Our experience with cowboy trails and JC creators catering was absolutely outstanding from start to finish! We thoroughly enjoyed our scenic, horseback trail ride, followed by a delicious dinner around the campfire. Our wranglers Zane and Hayley were incredibly informative, kind patient and courteous making everyone feel comfortable throughout the ride our four legged partners, dusty and happy, we’re wonderful horses that let us through the peaceful and breathtaking red rock Canyon scenery. The views were spectacular and made for a truly memorable experience! If you’re looking for a unique adventure with beautiful scenery, friendly guides and amazing food, I highly recommend cowboy trails and JC creators!
We had a wonderful experience overall, and I especially want to recognize our shuttle driver, Roy, for making the evening run so smoothly. He was punctual, extremely organized, and did a great job explaining the waiver process, the schedule, and the tour expectations before we started. Since we were the only group that utilized the shuttle that day, he went above and beyond to make sure we felt taken care of and comfortable throughout the experience. His attention to detail and professionalism really stood out.
The chef was also fantastic. She greeted us with a big smile, was very welcoming, and confirmed our meal selections to make sure everything was correct. The food came out beautifully presented and was delicious — a great addition to the tour experience.
The horseback riding trail itself was absolutely beautiful. The ranch has an incredible view of the red rocks, and the trail was a comfortable ride with gentle ups and downs that allowed us to enjoy the scenery from many different angles. The landscape changed throughout the ride, making it feel like we were experiencing multiple views in one trail. The horses and mules were well suited for riders of different ages and experience levels, which made the ride approachable and enjoyable. A special highlight was the ranch dog, who added so much charm to the experience by accompanying the group the entire time.
The tour guides were helpful and attentive. They kept an eye on the group, made sure everyone’s needs were met, waited for slower riders when needed, and even took some really cute photos for participants to remember the day. My only small suggestion would be for the guides to bring a bit more enthusiasm and excitement into the experience. At times, it felt like they were having an off day or weren’t fully engaged with the group. I’m used to tour guides creating an energetic and fun atmosphere, and that extra excitement would have made an already great experience even better. This was not a deal breaker, but it did slightly take away from the overall joy of the ride.
Overall, this is a great package for anyone looking for a unique experience just about a 30-minute drive from Las Vegas. You get beautiful red rock views, a relaxing horseback ride, great food, and a well-organized experience. I would definitely recommend this tour.
We had a great experience, Everything was nice and organized. The food was great and staff was friendly.
Had an absolutely amazing time doing this with Trinity leading us on the way with Whitney following offering help! Could have stayed for hours more and the food by Amber was delicious aswell as fantastic trained horses. After dinner activities were great too with learning you lasso a bull. Tyke and Dusty were also brilliant. Would recommend this to everyone! Best thing we did the entire week in vegas!!
This was a really great activity. Our wranglers (guides) Ella and Riley were fantastic, super knowledgeable and friendly.
Chef, Jennifer made a fantastic dinner: steak, beans, potatoes and homemade cookies. just wonderful.
And of course, the venue was fantastic red rocks at sunset!
You don’t need to worry about the horses because they are tame and know what to do. The views that you will see are outstanding. Rilee (one of the guides) is precious and very knowledgeable having grown up there. The steak dinner and bonfire afterwards were great too. Thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience. We went in the evening and a t-shirt and blue jeans worked perfectly for me. They will give you a saddle bag for you to use for your essentials. I highly recommend this venture.
Horseback riding was such an amazing and memorable experience for me. The breathtaking views at sunset and the trail itself is very scenic w great picture taking moments the entire time! I was on Traveler couldn't of asked for a better horse. Riley was a wonderful tour guide she was in the back with the group. The dinner was delicious. I did get the steak and Jennifer seasoned it perfectly. The smores around the fire and lasso lessons were a wonderful way to end the night!
From start to finish the whole experience was excellent communication was great and staff could not do enough to make us feel all welcome and help us enjoy the experience
It was so wonderful. The food was delicious and so much. The ride was so much fun. The view was spectacular and the staff was so amazing. I definitely recommend this tour.
10/10 experience. Couldn’t recommend it enough!
From start to finish it was a truly special day that we will never forget.
