We have half-day, full day and overnight horseback riding excursions available, as well as night rides downtown and weeklong trails from Guanajuato to San Miguel. Our expert cowboy guides lead you safely through working cattle ranches, into Coyote Canyon, through its river, over its plains, across its gorges, and down its sheer cliffs, all the while sharing with you their in-depth knowledge of the native flora and fauna. Their horseback riding excursions are exciting and rugged yet can also be tailored for families with small children or for seniors who would prefer a slower pace.We also offer hot air balloon flights, four-wheeler adventures (ATVs), rappelling, hot springs, archaeological tours, sky diving, ultralight flights, canyoneering and much more! « less

We range from ages 4 to 65. Several had never ridden a horse before. I was thinking "around the corral". Instead, after clear instruction, we mounted up - and to my amazement our horses were wonderful and we had good assistance and attention from a NUMBER(!) of Mexican cowboys working for Coyote Canyon.The cowboys who trained these horses and the...

Rodrigo was our guide, and organized a fantastic horseback ride for our four children, aged 5-8, and ourselves (we were two families). He does a bit of helpful instruction on how to ride at the outset, and then ride itself - about 2.5 hours total, with a break of about 30 minutes - was glorious. The kids utterly enjoyed it,... More

Outstanding selection of things to do in and around SMA. The ultralite flights over SMA are a great way to see the town, and Albert Coffey's guided tour of the Pyramid of the Virgin is as good as it gets--as a trained anthropologist who worked on the excavation, he knows the site intimately, and unless your Spanish is superb, the...

This company offers inexpensive memorable activities that you cannot afford to miss. I highly recommend the half-day horse ride down the canyon to anybody. My 68 year mother managed no problems and my girlfriend who has never ridden a horse. More

We were picked up in the center of town by Rodrigo and driven out to the ranch, probably a 45 minute trip. Once there, we bought cowboy hats (as advised, they did make the pictures better) and we set up with horses. The Mustang-Quarter Horses were a little small for my liking at only about 13 hands, but they were... More

Albert Coffee is the perfect guide to an incredible place. He participated in the initial excavation with the archeologist assigned to canada de la virgin pyramids. Coyote Canyon Adventures will pick you up in town, take you to the sight with informal conversation along the way and proceed to immerse you in the mesoamerican culture. Albert is personable, very knowledgable,... More

Our tour guide Albert who is an American Archeologist uncovering Otomi pyramids was awesome. He gave us insights into a land we never knew existed. The tour was exhilirating, fun, and romantic. Great vibes and a great home cooked meal using only locally grown food to top it all off. When you get there the cowboys pick a horse for... More

A truly extraordinary adventure! I went on the overnight ride and loved every minute. The scenery breathtakingly beautiful and the tour extremely well oganized. The Coyote Canyon Adventures team of wrangers were straight out of the times of the old wild west.... they are not actors, in fact they are the real deal ... no acting here! They are highly... More
