What more could you want? - It doesn't matter if you have never ridden or a seasoned ride, you will have a great time. The ride is stunning, the horses well trained, and Nikki is a delight. Just do yourself a favor and go. Your only regret will be you didn't go sooner.

Lovely experience - This tour was so much fun. The horses were great and the views were stunning. Nikki did a great job guiding us and helping beginner riders like myself. The location was easy to get to and there was plenty of parking. Recommend a morning time for the summer months!

Wonderful views connecting with nature - We had a great time learning about Lake Sonoma with our guide, Nicki. She knows a lot about the area and put us at ease on the horses, who were very gentle and well-trained. This is definitely a hidden gem!

Amazing views, gentle horses - Seeing Lake Sonoma from horseback is such a treat! Our guide, Nicki, was very knowledgeable about the horses and the area, pointing out plants and birds of interest. The horses are well cared for and know the trails, making it easy to trust them on the steeper parts. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a fun day out in Sonoma County.

An activity not to be missed - What a great horseback ride in a breathtaking landscape ! Our 2 guides were very friendly. They ensure the safety of visitors and above all the good health of the horses despite the heat.
Finally, the road to get to the ranch is incredibly beautiful.

Great wine break! - Nice half day activity to do something different from wine tasting. Besides it being very very hot that day, it was a really nice experience. I haven’t ridden a horse in over 10 years and was a bit nervous but besides a couple scratches from branches it was a lot of fun and I felt safe. Our guide was very friendly and you could tell loved the horses. She was great in selecting which horse went with what person and we had a beautiful walk on a trail around the lake. If I were to do it over again I would pick a winery close by there to go to after grabbing lunch.
