Our family of 6 riders was put together with other families and groups for a total about 20-25 riders in the same group, which was quite a lot. There was a lead guide upfront and one in the rear, but so many riders in between that you couldn't hear anything they were talking about as far as a tour goes.. The stables were well-organized and the horses seemed well cared for and well behaved. The staff was all friendly. Biggest complaint was that the "2 hour ride" that we purchased began at 1:00 but we had returned, said our goodbyes and were driving away at 2:30.
