5.00Our experience at Brazos Bluffs Ranch was wonderful, and I would love to come back and do it again! The staff was helpful, friendly, knowledgeable, and safety conscience. They explained everything clearly, and they made sure everyone was comfortable. We were encouraged to "unplug" so to speak because they took pictures of us during the ride. We were allowed to take photos if we wanted, but I was having such a good time, I didn't even think about my camera. The horses are beautiful and well behaved. I would love to do the Sunset ride next. Shout out to Brooke and Ruthie for being amazing!

5.00I had such a great ride. A wonderful ranch property with a very good trail and the trail boss was good with all. I got to ride a sweet Tennessee Walker which was good for my 78 year old back. Up and fown hills thru woods and terrific bluff views of the river! They take pics and send to your phone....great idea. I cannot wait to go again! They are open year round! I cant seem to get my photos on here....sorry.

5.00The best ride back on a horse - guide was attentive and answer any questions you had as well as made you feel comfortable the whole ride if you or others got a little nervous. Views of the Brazos River and land was the most beautiful.
Fun afternoon in Waco
