INCREDIBLE.

Incredible experience, I would repeat it many times; Yun (the guide) was excellent with us, everything was very organized and fun, the included food was delicious, 100000% recommended to get to know a side of San Miguel de Allende that many do not know.

Adventurous Horseback Riding in the Mexican Canyon

We had the most amazing day with Coyote Canyon Adventures. My husband, son (age 13) and I were blissed out from it for days. The tour guide Rodrigo makes you feel confident about riding the horses and learning to gallop (which we all tried for the first time). The horses are beautiful and well-cared for. The many cowboys who accompanied us took great care to make sure we were safe and entertained with history about the beautiful canyon and many songs! And then we had a homemade lunch at a house nearby. It was magical. Would highly recommend.

Easy horseback riding with beautiful views (+food!) )

Loved it! Easy horses and guides that gave very clear instructions (June was so helpful), beautiful views, great food afterwards. Wear long sleeves and bring sunscreen (maybe a GoPro too). Definitely recommend to riders of all skill levels

Fun adventure for all ages!!!

Half day horseback riding with Coyote Canyon was one of the highlights of our trip to San Miguel! We had my Mom (age 80) and two teenagers (aged 15 and 12) and everyone was paired up with a great horse. Coyote Canyon went out of their way to make sure everyone was safe and well supervised: we had a total of 8 cowboys for our group of 10 guests, plus a bunch of silly dogs who made for great entertainment along the way. We rode through beautiful and quite technical terrain: lots of great photos and amazing views along the canyon! The lunch afterwards was hosted at a rustic local hacienda on a nearby farm featuring delicious and very traditional Mexican fare: all of the vegetables were grown on the property. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a local ecotourism adventure!!! Thank you Coyote Canyon!

Best trip experience I’ve been had !

It was the most incredible experience ever! I went solo and still had the best time - it’s a true 2.5 hour horseback ride and it felt amazing to go all the way up the canyon and back down and how incredible the horses and instructors were. Frederico was incredible and took so many photos and videos of everyone while also teaching us new things about San Miguel. Would do this again a million times!

Half-day Horseback riding

Went with my family on a half day horseback riding experience. This is our 2nd time making a booking with Coyote Canyon Adventures as we had such a great time last year on their Sunset horaeback ride. This is a longer experience that we did, and you have the option to gallop with the horse! Was my 1st time galloping and never felt unsafe. They are extremely kind, professional, safe, and friendly people! If you are considering going horseback riding in the San Miguel area I highly recommend Coyote Canyon Adventures!
