Our adventure begins by picking you up at our offices in downtown San Miguel de Allende and driving you out to San Agustin Gonzales where we will visit one of the households and collect chicken eggs. We will then go to a pen with goats and if possible, you will be able to milk a few goats. After the ranch activities, the cooks will teach you to make tortillas and fresh salsa which we will eat for breakfast.
We then take you to Boca de la Cañada where your guide will give you a 10 min riding class. Any questions you may have after the class are promptly answered and you are then paired with your horse by our 4th generation cowboys, please note that these horses all take kids as young at 2 years old and people up to 85, they are all very tame and extremely well behaved. Once everyone’s stirrups are adjusted, we are off on our adventure.
We start by riding along the base of the canyon and have various opportunities to cross the river where you may get your feet wet, depending on the season, and you can give your horse a drink of water if they are thirsty. Throughout the ride there are several opportunities to gallop if you feel inclined to try, if not, a cowboy will stay behind and walk with those who would rather take it easy.
