Wonderful trip. Riding through the farm and along the river was great. Carla was incredible. She was very knowledgeable, pointing out plants and animals, while sharing stories. We even got to see a family of Howler monkeys, which was fun. It was beautiful and peaceful, but the best part was Carla. It was my daughter’s first time riding. Carla was very patient and careful to make sure my daughter was ok. She coached her through the whole ride and assured her she would dismount her own horse and walk along side my daughter’s horse if she felt uncomfortable. My daughter, however, quickly felt comfortable and wanted the ride to last even longer. She absolutely loved it! It is definitely a memory she will not soon forget, thank you Carla!

Horseback riding with Miguel was so much fun! He took us all around the jungle and was an excellent tour guide! The horses we big, beautiful, and well trained. Clara, the owner, was very responsive and flexible with our booking time

Memorable trip! We had a mixed group - kid, youth, adults, mostly beginners and a seasoned rider. Carla, Rudy and Mary took good care of us and really made sure we’d be safe and comfortable, and they are wonderful conversationalists. Love how they paired us with the horses and loved the trail+views. Will be back and plan to do other tours with them when family/friends from abroad visit.

Second time taking my kids on this horse farm ride (ages 13 and 4). It was a beautiful trip. We took a ride by the river and through a field of cows. A few howler monkeys were in the trees as we were riding by. Great experience both times. It is a slow paced ride and the tour guide Mrs. Carla is the sweetest most pleasant person to have. She is very knowledgeable about the area and surroundings. She knows her horses well. I would definitely go again when my youngest is a little older to be able to ride his own horse.

St Leonards is great. We did the Xunantunich horseback tour with guide Elio. The horses are happy and healthy, and super safe! Did not spook at all. Elio is hilarious and really knows his stuff. I forgot bug spray and he had some extra for us. We got a lot of great information about the Mayan ruins. Absolutely worth it to have the tour! The ruins themselves are great but the added layer of information is so worth it. Thank you St Leonards, Carla and Elio for being the best!
