We did horseback riding and zip line. The trail ride was great through the pastures and the mountains. The trails were quite steep at some points and the horses were very careful and sure footed. The guide took us to the top of a peak to overlook the area which was amazing. The guide was nice but spoke minimal English,... More

This is a class act outfit where safety comes first, but fun is a very close second. Our guides were just amazing and the tour was so much fun. Orlando was our lead guide and he was simply incredible. I don't typically hand out high level praise, but he deserves it. He had my daughter, who was really scared to... More
