Our tour guide, Josh, was very knowledgeable about the tour, horses, and history of the area. He would stop intermittently to make sure everyone was still comfortable on their horse and asked if we had any questions. It was an amazing experience to get ride a horse through the Smokey Mountains. We’ll definitely be going back!!!

Husband was afraid prior to ride and only been on a horse once before our ride. He now can stop talking about how much he enjoyed the ride and how impressed he was with Scout. The scenery was lovely. Only wish was that we could have taken photos along the trail. Overall, great experience.

Hi Donna, so happy your husband enjoyed it as well as you. Next time, just ask your guide if you could stop to take pictures. That's definitely part of the program for you.

Great trail ride with wonderfully trained and beautiful horses. Our guides were very informative, friendly and concerned for our safety. The safety video was very informative and funny. Great way to teach about riding safety. Thanks for a great day! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!
