Peyton was a wonderful... - Peyton was a wonderful tour guide and we had a great time riding horses and seeing the views of Zion. Located just a few miles from Zion entrance. We did the 8am tour and it was great, not too hot. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to ride horses with great views.

A great day for a horseback ride! - It was a perfect sunny February day - Carli was our guide and she was amazing - attentive - fun - concerned about our comfort - all around great! We loved the ride through the canyon with all the beautiful scenery around us - the gorgeous rocks and ridges, all of it! We rode to a slot canyon, tied the horses up, and hiked through the slot canyon, taking pictures all the while. Upon finishing in the slot canyon, we got back on the patiently waiting horses and rode back. All in all, a great day and a great way to experience Zion National Park.
