Omar was a great host. It was my first time riding a horse. I was comfortable after a few minutes into the ride. The elevation does get pretty high. The food was delicious. The little town that we ate in was pretty neat. I would book it again. The forest was lovely. So peaceful. You will not have service.

Amazing! Omar was so kind and his English is great. The men he works with are great animal handlers and we did some steep ascents but we felt so safe. The lunch up at the top of the ride was so good and we brought cash so we could order a beer too. So fun and totally worth the money.

    My partner and I wanted to spend some time in the mountains outside of Mexico City, and this tour was a great way to do so! The horses are well-behaved, the guides are so helpful, and having Omar to teach us about the history of the area was very informative. Have some experience riding horses? Great, you'll have fun trotting and a bit of loping. No experience? You'll still have a blast, walking at your own pace. We highly recommend this tour and will be back!

    A highlight for kids and adults

    Greg_M, Mar 2026
    Riding through the forest and alongside the river was a wonderful experience in total contrast to the traffic and intensity of CDMX less than an hour away. The horses were well trained and the staff super attentive so as new riders we felt comfortable and safe but at the same time able to explore our new skills. Our kids really appreciated this since we've mostly been dragging them to museums and restaurants. We all loved seeing a totally different side of the City.

    A great way to spend a morning!

    10/10 experience

    I had an AMAZING experience, it was my first time riding a horse and I felt very safe. The forest is beautiful very peaceful. I am so glad I booked this experience. Our tour guide recommended dishes to try and it was delicious, the quesadillas (as basic as that sounds) were the best quesadillas I have tried on this trip.

    This is worth it.

    Omar was very friendly...

    Omar was very friendly and we all had a great time. I do feel like we got our money's worth with the included: transportation to/from the destination, lunch, water, and many hours in a cool forest & village. Omar is a local to the area and we enjoyed his stories!

    Great time

    Best horseback riding experience! The forest is absolutely beautiful and the river is captivating! I’m glad I chose this tour!

    Nice break from CDMX

    Jacob_H, Apr 2025
    Such a great experience, especially after many days in the city. Our guide was fantastic, the horseback riding was fun, and the food was fantastic! Great time!

    Best horseback riding experience.

    Robert_H, Apr 2025
    That was the best horseback riding experience I've had. The set up of the trip was fantastic. The tour guide Omar was incredible. We stopped at a restaurant that served me the best meal I've had in Mexico. 10/10 would definitely recommend.

    Highlight of my trip

    Samantha_S, Feb 2025
    This experience was well worth it. Queer friendly and good for all levels of riders. Highly recommend. I was the only one on the tour and felt that they still took the care as if there were many people. The food was great and I was glad to see life outside of the city. The vegan options were great and we got coffee to warm us up from the rain. Was definitely the highlight of my trip to Mexico.

    BEAUTIFUL! A hidden gem!

    Ariel_J, Oct 2024
    I’m so glad we did this! Omar and Tomas were wonderful guides and provided a beautiful, authentic horseback riding experience. The mountains Los Dinamo (I think) is about an hour outside of Centro and is well worth the trip. Omar was so friendly and encouraging! We got a quick riding lesson before heading up the trail to the restaurants. The horses are well-trained and know the trail so driving them was easy. There were some steep portions of the trail but if I can do it, so can you! The mountains are so peaceful and it was a perfect getaway from the main city. The food at the restaurant is TOP TIER! It is a completely different vibe from the main city, it truly feels like a hidden gem! This was one of the last excursions we did in Mexico City and it was truly the perfect way to wrap up this trip. You will not regret it!
