    This review is strictly concerning customer service. We did a horse ride with this company 3-4…read moreyears ago and had a great time. We were in Galveston this year for our annual marriage retreat and wanted to do the private sunset ride. I did all the online stuff which was confusing in and of itself. I received a email with info but that made sure I knew it was not the actual reservation. I tried to call the only phone number provided multiple times. I left messages. I was never able to get ahold of anyone and received no call back. Sadly, we did not ride this year.

    Horrible horrible experience. DO NOT BOOK WITH THEM. I got off my long flight got some rest. I was…read moreso excited to do the sunset ride so we got an uber followed the instructions and headed to the horses. We get there and the directions given were not clear I walked miles down the beach until we found the horses. Immediately the woman says she hates her job while I'm signing my waver the guy has a smart mouth I simply asked if we could go fast instead of being nice he got a huge attitude and said "I don't want to be here anyway so you can do it my way or leave" I said I was fine walking but after all that he goes talks to the lady and comes back and says we smell like we smoked so we can't ride! Mind you I have medical conditions I do not smoke or drink alcohol. I was simply judged by my looks I felt and they were just so rude. They kept my big deposit and left us stranded. I waited outside in the unknown for an uber for two hours. Worst horseback experience of my life and I have been on atleast 30 rides. DO NOT BOOK THEM THEY WANT YOUR DEPOSIT THATS IT I PROMISE.

    Booked a 1 hour trail ride for my 40th birthday. I also booked an equestrian experience for my…read moreparents who are a little older and didn't want to ride. The ranch and ride was so much fun, being outdoors with the beautiful horses. It was my first time riding- felt nervous but excited- and the team made me feel at ease. I received a mini walkthrough on how to guide the horse to go forward, stop, and turn. My guide was Matt who made my first visit (but not last!) great - told great stories, and shared about various animal/plant activity along the trail. Great activity for a birthday and the hour flew by. Be sure to buy the treats at the end bc the horses sooooo love those, and tip your guide! Such a memorable experience! Thank you!!

    Came here for the first time for a trail ride with a group of strangers, for a solo date on a…read moreSaturday afternoon. I missed the exit to turn into to get to the ranch, I may have missed the sign on the road, but my GPS eventually got me there, lol Upon arrival there's plenty of parking. The email has super specific instructions for your arrival. Including arriving 30 minutes before your ride time. I got there about 20 minutes beforehand and that was plenty of time. If you come with a group belive entire party has to be present to check in together. $68 bucks for a group ride rate per person. If you miss the email or forget all of the steps just look for the check in desk and they will go over everything. You must wear a helmet to ride, for your protection. And they offer free bandanas to protect your hair (and for sanitary reasons) from the helmet, that was nice. They match up the horse with each individual, I think based on height and weight. That takes about 15 min to get everyone matched and saddled up for the ride. The trail is covered by trees in the forrest, but it's still hot out in the elements, so be sure to hydrate before and after. Pro's -Quality time to get to know your horse before and after the ride - zero riding experience required, but does help -staff for most part friendly, willing to take pics for you in and off the horse - children, and special needs folks are welcome Cons - possible emergencies will cut your ride short - riding instruction only given to the front of the large group not the back - ride may not start on time, so give yourself extra cushion time if you make time sensitive plans after. Tip not required, bur encouraged. Overall a fun experience. But may do a private ride in future to get more detailed and intimate instructions. Enjoy!
