    This experience will be one of my most favorite memories of our vacation. Our guide, Johnathan was the best! I'm not an experienced rider, but felt safe and sound with him and my lovely mare Sheeba. Put this at the top of your bucket list, you won't regret it. Shout out to Doc and Bug for their hilarious antics 😆
