Brian_L, May 2023
Great trip. Driver was prompt and efficient. We were met by Cat and Orion as our wranglers. Well kept ranch grounds. Horses were very easy to handle. Trail ride was a little more than ninety minutes. Beautiful scenery you can't see from Vegas. Great ranch dinner, my wife chose chicken, fire grilled bone in thighs, mine was a ribeye steak. The whole trip was very well orchestrated. Thanks for a great experience.
Great ride and best dinner.
David_O, May 2023
Great team of wranglers and cook who made it so relaxing and fun. As a non-rider the horses were very gentle and were no problem for me. The duration was also perfect. Long enough to leave me a little sore today but not crippled. The steak dinner was amazing. Best and cheapest huge steak you can get in Vegas in my opinion. Potatoes corn beans and salad to go with. We could not finish it and now have lunch for today. Strongly recommend this adventure.
Therapeutic evening in the great outdoors.
Ronald_S, May 2023
Get away from the hustle of the city in the beatiful and peaceful outdoors using transportation from a bygone erra The staff were all first rate, capable and considerate. The food was also first rate.
Just what I needed

Stephanie_F, May 2023
Lovely scenery to enjoy on a lovely and serene horse back experience. Horses are very well trained along with experienced instructors. Suitable for all - even inexperienced riders. Fantastic food at the end of the Rudd and masses of it. Would thoroughly recommend this experience.
Outstanding Horseback Trip with great views

A truly wonderful trip for us.
Michaela_L, May 2023
Of our 10 days in the Vegas area this was the highlight. The whole evening was simply wonderful. The wranglers were fantastic and very patient with all the riders as we grasped how to communicate with our allocated horse and the wranglers clearly knew the personalities of all the horses in the heard so were able to manage the trek very efficiently and allocate the character of the horse to the experience of the rider. I haven’t ridden a horse for over 30 years and even back then I wasn’t particularly “good” at it. . My horse was Soco, and what an absolute star he was ! , The trek terrain is uneven and you really are trekking the canyon terrain, not man made concrete paths, but this is no problem to these horses who take it all in their stride. The supper back at the ranch was lovely, and very generous portions so don’t eat too much before the trip. Being back to nature with the trek was the best and even better was that it wasn’t an overly commercialised money making evening. We’ve been on some trips in Vegas where your not allowed to take photos of your own you have to buy theirs etc etc but there was none of this at all, the wranglers used our own mobile phones to take photos and the provision of the saddle bag also meant you could take your phone with you on the ride to take photos when it was safe to do so . I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this experience, it was amazing.
MUST TRY
Diana_N, May 2023
Riding through the canyon was so much fun. It's so breath taking watching the sunset. The food at the end was very flavorful. Koa was such a sweetheart. Very friendly. Making cowboy smores was also pretty cool. Overall would recommend to anyone looking for more out of Vegas. You won't regret it.
Escape the Vegas Strip Hustle!
Patricia_D, May 2023
This was a nice relaxing ride through Red Rock Canyon. The guides were very friendly and helpful. After the ride we were treated to a huge steak and several sides. A campfire followed with a new way to make s'mores.
This is a must do while in Vegas
David_S, May 2023
The whole outfit of wranglers were outstanding which made this experience so very exciting and fun. The steak was HUGE and cooked to perfection as was the rest of the meal.
Absolutely incredible ride. WOW.
Sue_W, May 2023
This is the second time we have done this ride and I’m sure it won’t be the last. It is a true WOW experience. The views are incredible, the horses are foot perfect, the cowboys/girls are so helpful and the food is out of this world. Best steak we had all week. Genuinely. Thanks to all.
Fabulous
Tom_M, May 2023

Marisol_M, May 2023
The view was amazing and our guides were a lot of fun to talk to. Definitely will remember this trip for a long time!
If you are undecided just do it. You won’t regret it.
Michelle_B, May 2023
Such a great group of cowgirls and cowboys! Koa was funny and very friendly. Alberto cooked up a delicious meal and Kat was always checking on if my knees were okay. I was in a newer saddle and it was broken in yet….it was fine then but today…well my tush hurts a bit. Overall I’d do this again and again.
We loved it! Highly recommend!
Vivian_V, May 2023
This horseback trail ride takes place in the beautiful red rock canyon just outside of Las Vegas. The staff are fantastic and knowledgeable, able to help those who need a little more instruction, and keep everyone safe and on track. The dinner was wonderful, large portions, and included dessert. We had an amazing time! Definitely recommend! Thanks to Cindy, Koa, Kat, and Tony for a beautiful and fun experience!
Magical
Katherine_F, Apr 2023
A magical and relaxing experience. The staff were lovely and you could see how passionate they were about the area. All the horses were well trained and gentle. It's obvious they were loved and taken care off. The meal was one of the nicest meals I had in Vegas. I would recommend this to anyone who wants time away from the noise of the strip and who wishes to experience a truly magical trip
Great tour but getting there was an issue.
Jason_T, Apr 2023
The excursion was great! Food was fantastic and the cowboys/girls were friendly. The ride there, not so much. The pick up driver was rude. He was an hour late with no update until we called them. Upon drop off, he gave us an attitude about traffic and made us feel bad for being dropped off at our hotel. We ended getting out of the bus mid strip. The tour was great, but your driver needs better customer service skills.

A night to remember
Michelle_R, Apr 2023
The weather was absolutely perfect, sunny, no clouds, no wind, perfect temperature. The staff was beautiful, courteous, polite, informative and very professional. The horses were calm and easy to handle, and cute, duh lol. But my cowboy hat absolutely goes off to the chef who ended the night with an amazing prime rib dinner, every bite was incredibly delicious, I cant believe I ate it all. My only tiny disappointment was not having creamer for the coffee, but I can deal, pickle. The overall experience was top notch. Thank you for the memories!!
Best way to spend an evening in Vegas!
Samantha_K, Apr 2023
The ride was fantastic-easy and comfortable-amazing views-and great wranglers. You all do a great job!
Howdy partners
Richard_B, Apr 2023
From being picked up to drop off the entire experience was first class. Cowboys and cowgirls very experienced couldn’t do enough to make it a memorable day, and to top it off one of the biggest bbq steaks we have ever had cooked our way
