Had an awesome experience riding with Rio Grande Stables! Went on the 2 hour ride with Shelby, who was very knowledgeable about the area and the horses. Very pretty ride with great views. You can tell the horses are taken care of very well and very well trained. Highly recommend! Wish we would have had time to take another ride!

We had a great time with our wrangler. Nobody in our family knew how to ride and this was a really fun intro to horseback riding and experiencing the high desert. Would definitely recommend this place.

Rio Grande stables took us on an amazing ride. The horses were well trained and friendly. My family of four loved every minute of our morning ride. I felt safe and comfortable with our wranglers- Shelby and James squared. They were friendly and knowledgeable about the area. They made sure we were comfortable and having a good time. Shelby also gave a great lunch recommendation for burgers and shakes at Wild Cat Den. We ran into Shelby again!

The two hour morning trail ride was a highlight of our time in Taos for our family of 4. Our guides were friendly and fun, horses were great, and the scenery was beautiful. We plan to book again!

It was absolutely perfect from the reserving, to the pre-ride explanation, and Shelby’s personality and interaction with us. Of course, you can’t beat the scenery! We’re so happy we did it.

My family and I had such an amazing experience! We drove up and were greeted kindly by Shelby and Javier and you could tell right away they were both genuine and kind. We were the only ones for that session which turned out to be so amazing and peaceful! The views around the area were breathtaking taking too! All of us connected well with our horses and my mule! Hands down, the best horseback riding experience we have had! I would highly recommend for anyone and everyone! Thank you Rio Grand Stables!

I broke my ankle while hiking last weekend and EMS was able to get a lovely mule named Lady from Rio Grande Stables to give me a ride out. Lady was lovely and I'm not sure I would have gotten out of the gorge without her. Incredibly smooth ride, more comfortable than the ambulance ride! I'm forever indebted to Lady and the Rio Grande Stables. I can't wait to return for a ride when my ankle is better. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
