I booked a party of 6 for the 1-hour ride on 12/29/17 for a total cost of $317.67. We had a good time overall, especially fording the river. But our group had come from all over the world (as far as Vietnam) and I was disappointed that they wouldn't let us gather our horses for a moment at the beginning or somewhere in the middle of the ride or at the end before dismounting for a group photo. That was our only request, but one lady wrangler said they were "too busy", while the other ("Sharpie") was at least willing to ride up with my camera and take some individual photos of people on their horses with my camera. It's not a group photo, but better than nothing. Also, don't expect any sort of guided tour where they tell you about the area and plants and wildlife and such. It is 10+ horses in a single-file line, so the guides couldn't really address us all at once even if they wanted too. Still, it is a nice quiet walk through a scenic part of the desert.
