The 1st and 2nd farms were spectacular. The 3rd, though note as nice gave us more opportunity to pet the horses. The second farm was the most beautiful we had ever seen. It had to be worth several billion.

Sean was amazing!!! He was very knowledgeable, funny and kind. He made the experience both educational and fun! We saw many foals and mares on this tour in addition to the magnificent farms. The tour started as scheduled, the bus was comfortable and air conditioned. We stopped after 2 hours for a bathroom break and then completed the final stop on the tour. The experience overall was fantastic! We would definitely recommend.

I can’t say enough good things about our horse 🐎 tour. We went on our first one today and we absolutely LOVED it, no wonder it has such high ratings. The guide, Shawn Washington, was very knowledgeable and funny as well. He not only helped make things really interesting, but made us laugh and brought humor to the morning. The farms were indescribably beautiful. I was so … glad I got to pet a horse and feed them a peppermint, it made my morning wonderfully wonderful as well as my heart smile. I highly recommend this tour. I had no idea when we went on it that it would bring us so much joy. It created a desire for me to have a horse 🐎 (I don’t know how thrilled my husband is about that,) but for the first time we’ve started talking about it.
