My Daughter and I just went for a brunch horse back ride at the Foothills Ranch. There were only 3 people in our group which was wonderful! Other horse back riding tours we have gone on have been with groups of 10+ people and you get lost in the cluster. Foothills Ranch keeps your tours small and intimate! Each ride... More

This whole day was great at Foothills Ranch. We were greeted with smiles and introduced to our wrangler who was funny and informative through the entire ride. We rode some wonderful horses, healthy & patient, I rode 'Larry' and can't say enough about this guys personality. We had a blast! My wife rode 'Maude' who is a critter with much... More

The man who took us on our trail ride was drunk, I believe. He sure smelled of alcohol. The place was enjoyable, with great horses, but all in all I would say it was a negative experience for me and my friends. He was almost on the verge of being unfriendly. Can't really say I would recommend the place. John... More

Greeted right away with a warm and friendly hello. Horses were VERY healthy and that was importance. You can tell they are taken care of. Ride was about an hour depending on how often your horse liked to stop to grab a bite to eat! Told many great stories during the trail. Stopped to take a great picture. Would highly... More

This is a great ranch. It is about an hour from Sedona and an hour from Phoenix. There are several options, from 1 hour rides to all day rides. The guide is very friendly. They know their horses and will find a horse to fit your riding style/experience. They accomodate any size group, so you can have a small, personal... More

The lunch is well forth doing. You ride up to the pines and eat lunch along a beautiful creek. The ride takes about 4 hours total. the wranglers are so nice and really great to talk to. This is a must do in my book. More

Our office booked the ranch for party this summer. If you want to have entertainment, this is the place to go. Our party had cowboys and gals riding in for a shoot out, old time photos, great food, and games. It was fun and relaxing. I highly recommend to others. More
