Great experience.very freindly.very knowlegable.just make sure you book your ride back.get ready to be inpressed by the culture.
It was an excellent experience, fun, interesting, and unforgettable. We learned to rope, how to train and care for the horse, about the history and culture of the charros, and how to drink tequila. The next day we were invited to a charreada, where the charros, the horses, and the bulls demonstrated their skills and talents.
This was one of the best cultural experiences I’ve ever booked while on vacation! We learned so much about charro culture and history, and it gave me such a deeper insight into Mexico and the Mexican people. The talk was informative, inspiring, funny, and engaging. The lasso lesson and horse-riding was so fun and made me want to continue learning to ride at home. I fell in love with Mexico and the charro way!
If you want to learn and experience authentic Charro culture, book this visit! Marco is a wonderful tour guide, riding teacher and charro himself. I have learned so much from him about the history of charro culture, its code of honor, and its high aesthetic beauty of Charreria. I guarantee after your visit, you will see this sport with a fresh perspective, and bring part of this Mexican culture back home with you. It was not my first experience with horses (since the school where I teach has a strong riding program and I am surrounded with riders and riding teachers), but it was my first time I started to experience the gentleness and especially the mutual trust between the horses and myself (thanks to Marco!). Besides, all those gorgeous hats! Touch them, weight them, ask questions about them. I will leave the answers for you to find out with your visit!
An unforgettable Father's Day We want to thank you for giving us a great Father's Day, especially to Marcos and Manuel, who made this experience truly special for our family. Watching a charreada competition was like fulfilling a dream. Being able to experience this very Mexican tradition up close, feeling the atmosphere, getting to know the horses, and understanding everything behind the charro culture is something we will never forget. We especially loved the explanation about the philosophy, values, and way of life of the charros. It was not just a tourist activity; it was an authentic experience, full of history, pride, and tradition. Thank you very much for the attention, dedication, and for making us feel part of this beautiful culture. A completely recommended experience for those who want to know the true spirit of Mexico and Jalisco.
Very good experience to learn everything about charrería; Marco is a very good guide and passionate about the subject.
This was an amazing experience! We learned about the rich history and origins of Charrería through engaging demonstrations and hands-on activities, including the opportunity to learn how to throw a lasso. We also enjoyed a tequila tasting and were serenaded with traditional music, which made the experience even more memorable. It was a unique, authentic, and wonderful cultural experience that I would highly recommend.
Excellent explanation of the history of charros. Highly recommend. You get a chance to ride horses, use a lasso etc
The experience with Marco (our Charro) was phenomenal. Marco explained to us the history of the charros and taught us all the traditions of this extreme sport with many details, kindness, and charisma. I recommend everyone to visit Entre Charros in Guadalajara for a unique experience!
An amazing experience! I would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to learn about charro history and experiencing it for a day. My instructor was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and courteous. The faculty is well maintained, and everyone was nice.
