Great experience
The tour was easy to find, the man who gave the tour was very friendly and informative. He made sure we felt comfortable on the horse and it was very peaceful. Definitely worth booking!
Breathtaking private view on Horseshoe Bend by horse riding.
It was a great experience to visit the horseshoe bend AZ by horseback riding. It’s a relax journey and chating the background of the Navajo. Very easy to find the meet up place and friendly guide.
A must do!
This is a MUST do if you’re staying in Page!! incredibly friendly tour guides and horse handlers, with an amazing horseback experience! One of our favorite things we could do, well worth it!
A way to fully experience history of the west.
The location was easy to find (just slightly past the horseshoe bend public parking area by a couple miles or less....you make see a pulloff area with a locked gate, you will be guided to the proper parking area). The guide kept the ride very private and did an incredible job making everything comfortable. She went through how to handle these specific horses and where to be on the trail. The trail and overlook are very private plus super peaceful. I highly recommend this experience !!
WHAT IS THE BEST TIME TO SEE HORSESHOE BEND FOR PHOTOS?
2025-12-09 02:11The best time to see horseshoe bend is up to you and what you’re looking for. The canyon light is beautiful during all parts of the day. It tends to be more yellow, orange, and bright in the morning and more red and magenta in the afternoon.
CAN I BRING A DRONE?
2025-12-09 02:11No. The Navajo Parks and Recreation do not allow drones to be flown in these sensitive areas.
DO I NEED A RESERVATION?
2025-12-09 02:11Yes. It is recommended that you book your tour reservation at least a week in advance due to our commitment to small group sizes. However, we’ll do our best to accommodate same-day bookings.
WILL I GET SAND OR DUST ON ME?
2025-12-09 02:11It's possible that you will get sand or dust on yourself. We will be traveling through the desert and the canyon has a sandy floor - a gust of wind can get dust moving. If you are sensitive to dust you may want to bring a mask/bandanna and sunglasses.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?
2025-12-09 02:11During winter months, we recommend warm clothing. Layering is always a good idea. The summer season can be very warm and a t-shirt and shorts are most common. Closed toe shoes are preferred but sandals are fine too as long as you're comfortable with sand between your toes.

Beautiful ride with a view
I went with my teenage daughter and her friend and we all had an amazing time. The ride is pretty short, but you go to a great view point and get beautiful pictures. The horses were perfect, they clearly know their way around so you don't have to do much to keep them on track. Our guide and his daughter were very knowledgeable and accommodating of our varying skill level. My only disappointment was we had booked the day before for 4 but my mom got hurt and couldn't go, and they said it was too late for a refund.
