We had the best time on the tour. Our driver/tour guide was very knowledgeable and had a great personality. The bus was comfortable and there were opportunities to use the restroom along the way. The scenery was gorgeous. We got to meet and pet many horses as well as several barn cats and a dog. The highlight of the trip was feeding peppermint candies to the horses. We would definitely do this tour again if in the area. Well worth the money and time! At the end of the tour we were allowed to pick a horseshoe to take home for a souvenir. This will be a trip that my family will talk about for a long time!

Our guide was courteous, professional, and knowledgeable. More importantly, he was so much fun! He added so many personal experiences about his time working with the farms and people in the area. He really made it an educational and super fun time. Highly recommend!

Sean was great. There was a mix up where Sean was not supposed to be working and he came in anyways. He was kind, funny, and very knowledgeable. His passion shined through the tour--he clearly loves his job and the horses that are a part of it. It is always so nice seeing people so happy doing what they love. We visited different farms, learned about horses, pet horses/fed the horses peppermints ( the best part :)) I'd definitely recommend this to others. You definitely won't be disappointed. Even with the mix up and working on Christmas Eve, he was not rude or unpleasant (in fact, he was the opposite). Thanks for everything!
