I can't say enough about Shaun. We had an amazing day on a cold, rainy afternoon. Shaun brought us to some amazing horse stables. We were able to learn all about the horses, feed them carrots and get up close and personal. Shaun's enthusiasm about the horses made the day even more special. He treated me and my parents as an old friend. I would recommend this tour without hesitation!

Shaun was our excellent guide - wonderful tour with up close view of horses and beautiful horse farms. Shaun knows the history of the area and horses. An added treat was his recommendation of Red State BBQ and Wallace Station deli. Both delicious!

Wow, that was an awesome 3hrs on Shaun's tour! He is 'it' for knowing the history and ancestry of the horses & horse farms, since it was a big part of his life. He makes ya feel like fam for the tour. It also meant a lot to us to be able to pet the horses, too. My fav part! So if you like a more personal tour with lots of fascinating info, this is it! He also stopped by Red State BBQ so we could buy some food to try. It was excellent! Yum!! We are hoping to go on Shaun's tour again in the Spring when many mamas have their foals. That would be sweet to see all the little ones. Enjoy your tour! We sure did and HIGHLY RECOMMEND it! 😎
