I always read lots of reviews before I decide to pay money and reserve. This one totally delivered. Shaun is a top notch tour guide with so much knowledge and experience with not only horses but top farms in the area. I had no idea we would get to be so up close and personal with so many highly bred horses & foals. His entertaining stories , willingness to please and access to these wonderful farms sets him apart without a doubt. I am already planning a return trip and will most likely take the tour again!

Our guide Shawn was amazing and made this tour fantastic! It's worth more than the price of admission and it will be the highlight of your trip! Do yourself a favor and take this tour, you'll learn more than you think, you'll laugh more than normal and enjoy horses more than ever! Thank you Shawn Washington for your knowledge, humor and hospitality!

Was a wonderful time. Sean was full of humor, knowledge and knew just where to take us and what we would want to see. I didn't think that we would be able to touch any of the horse but we went to the mares and foals, seen the train facility including an indoor track then to a beautiful place that housed the stallions on another farm. One of the handlers was even kind enough to bring a stallion out for us to see. Everywhere we went the staff was very kind and answered any questions we had. I have horses but I was very impressed. I enjoyed being near almost million dollar horses. Thank you Sean your great!
