This was a really great tour, i haven't been on a horse in the last 15 years and thought i'd give it a try again, and it was absolutely worth it. I was quickly given a refresher and on we went. The ride to the ruins was so scenic and very fun. On the way there the local wildlife was pointed out to us, and when we arrived at the ruins we got an in depth Tour that left no information to be desired for. We were also told about local plants as well while we were there. And then after the tour the ride back was just as enjoyable. We went a bit faster on the way back, after out guide asked if we wanted to. Sue (guide) stayed close to me during that to make sure i stayed on the horse, as i was the least expirienced horse rider of the group, and gave me helpful tips and gentle reminders.
10/10 would recommend this tour

AMAZING TIME!!
My boyfriend and I had such an amazing time. We were able to ride along the river, see some beautiful sights, and we even saw some monkeys! Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and nice. We later went to Xunantunich with our tour guide, Carla, and we learned so much about the history of these gorgeous ruins. Carla is an amazing guide. We could listen to her talk all day. She's very passionate and will make sure you have a great time!

We will remember this the rest of our lives!
Wonderful experience for the price! The Wranglers are top notch, extremely knowledgeable. If you have never ridden a horse before, this is the perfect place to start! They match each horse to the person’s size, age, weight and experience. The scenery riding to the ruins is peaceful, beautiful, full of wildlife and easy. Even the owner walked alongside us, the entire time, giving us valuable information about what we were seeing. Once we arrived at the Ruins, we had her as our licensed tour guide. She is Mayan and is extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of the Mayan people! Highly recommend this tour!

Best experience
This experience was definitely a highlight of our trip to Belize. Carla, our guide was wonderful in showing my kids how to ride and she was ver knowledgeable. She share information about the site in a way that was very relatable to all of us. I highly recommend their services. Carla was able to draw my introverted son out to ask questions and she made my daughter who is not the biggest animal person throughly enjoy the experience.

Great value for the money! Great company!
We had a wonderful experience with St. Leonard's Easy to find. We arrived before the others in our party and were met by Rod and Mark- who spent 20 minutes or so entertaining and informing the four of us in our family (16 year old and 14 year old). They were very kind and we learned a lot. When everyone else arrived, we were given horses commensurate with our abilities, helmets and lots of water!
The 8 riders were accompanied by 3 guides- so we were always safe and entertained.
Other than me, no one else in my family had experience with horses and my wife was apprehensive. At the end of the tour, my family was so happy with the horses and the experience, way beyond our expectations.
The tour at Xunatunich was excellent- Carla was very informative. She took good care of all of us, making sure we were always resupplied with water.
We didn't get to see any monkeys- but they had been in the area.
I would say, a great ride if you are looking for a safe, easy ride to the ruins. The horses look to be in great shape and are well cared for. Choose a different tour if you are into a bigger riding experience. The Xunatunich tour was excellent.

Keeping everyone safe also means keeping happy horses who are well fed, watered and groomed!! Happy horses make happy trails and we are so glad you enjoyed the horses as well as Xunantunich.
