Description

Go on a horseback riding adventure with some real cowboys!! You'll go back in time to the 1800s on this trail ride that takes you into incredible hills and cactus filled deserts. Then have an amazing time with the western activities....learn how to shoot an arrow.... throw an axe... and try your hand at roping a steel calf. It's all in a day's work on the ranch! The lunch includes a hamburger, hot dog or grilled chicken, beans, corn on the cob, chips, dessert and unlimited soft drinks. NOTE: There are two outfitter locations mentioned in the listing. We go to ONE of those, depending on availability and season. Please note that during the hot summer months, this tour may be slightly different than described above.

Wild West revisited

A fantastic time we had from start to finish . Mike who picked us up from our hotel and took us to the ranch was very informative and a good driver. The staff at the ranch were very helpful and knowledgeable. Kendare took us out on the horses which were lovely well mannered and well looked after. Kendare’s knowledge of the area was vast . We finished off with great food cooked on the bbq and free beers! , plenty of it and very tasty . We did pistol shooting , axe throwing and bow and arrows . The old town is a fantastic reminder of the old Wild West with so much attention to detail . We throughly had the best time a tick off my bucket list and highly recommend it to anyone

Back in the saddle again -

We have been on horses 3 times in our lives…prom weekend and twice here and LOVED this experience! Oh, did I mention we are 73 years old?!? Our skeptic friends loved it as well! Bill, our guide was so hysterical and knowledgeable. The horses are on autopilot so sit back and enjoy the gorgeous scenery! The cowboy games were a hoot and lunch was fine. This is worth every penny and not worth giving it a second thought whether or not to do it. Make this memory!!

It's terrific!!! Our guide was true cowboy. Very knowledgeable about everything in the area. There's even ancient drawings and remains of Indian houses dating back about 900 yrs. The food was also amazing!!

Amazing scenery and a lot of fun!

We absolutely loved our Day in the Old West. Rusty took us out for a morning ride. He was extremely knowledgeable of the desert and life in Arizona. Very entertaining with the Wild West games. We would highly recommend a trip there. Great for families too.

Great Western Experience

Our group did a horseback ride, cowboy town activities, lunch and trap shooting. We had a blast! Everyone was very accommodating and really looked after our every needs, to make sure we were safe and enjoying ourselves. the scenery in the desert mountains is beautiful, the horses were well-behaved, and our wrangler, Aaron was very good. Lunch outdoors was simple, but good. We threw axes, horseshoes, and ropes. We shot bow and arrow, and revolvers in the shooting gallery. We even shot some clay birds on the trap range. A truly western experience that we all very much enjoyed. We're going to do it again soon.
