They also told me that interchange for donating him to the rescue that I would get a tax write off. They never had his back evaluated and never sent me the tax write off.

I've been attempt to get the tax write off for a year! Very sad that these rescues do this kinda thing.

At least they didn't show it . The price ($200 pp) was reasonable considering we rode the horses for an hour and a half. We went horseback riding through the Indian Canyon. Beautiful views around the palm trees. I even wanted to get off the horse and hike around LOL. They do ask for your height and weight when you fill out the agreement form. The guides will match you with a horse that is obviously suited for you. I was apparently matched with the grumpy one LOL. Still a cutie pie! I was definitely nervous since it was my first time riding a horse. Our guide was super sweet and very helpful so that helped ease my nervousness a bit and It turned out to be an amazing experience and I'll definitely do it again!

They asked me if she was a barker and I said "no", keeping my fingers crossed. They allowallowed us to go in. It was fantastic! So many different scents and sights for my dog. She was mesmerized. My point to this review is to say the people that run this place are super nice even for someone like myself that didn't ask to go riding. We're going back again in the fall. Oh.. she didn't bark!

Its ok if you are inexperienced or just need a little refresher Jennifer will take the time to educate you to assure you are safe out on the trail. The horses are friendly and very well-mannered. I felt so comfortable out on the trail! You travel along the river and through it with PLENTY of opportunities for photos. If I could give 10 STARS I would! Thank you, Jennifer, for making us feel so welcomed!!

Here, you'll get to know the ins and outs about the responsibility of taking care of the horses and have the opportunity to bond with your horse before taking them out.

Once on the trail, you'll learn about the natural area you're in and great history. Jennifer's pups will be along your riding adventure which adds some great laughter. One of the most amazing parts of the ride was crossing the Colorado River multiple times. I absolutely recommend this experience if given the opportunity. I can't wait until my next adventure with Jennifer, her pups and the beautiful horses.

I get it, maybe they were just wiped out, but still...! Anyway, tonight was pretty nice. We brought our own blankets and chairs along with hot cocoa (coffee for me) and just chilled out.

Every chance I get, I am recommending Ensenada Excursions to anyone going to the Ensenada area!…read moreDuring our Carnival cruise, our excursion to Valle de Guadalupe for wine tasting was the highlight of our entire cruise trip! They are truly a 5 star business because they are THAT AWESOME! We booked the upscale wine tasting package and it was just the best day ever. Our driver, Jose Luis Blanco, was friendly, prompt, and just a nice and sweet guy. He made us feel safe and is just so knowledgeable as he is from Ensenada. It was just my bf and I so it felt like we had our own private driver. We went to three beautiful wineries in Valle de Guadalupe and we did not feel rushed as he patiently waited for us. The wineries weren't too busy since it was in the morning so it felt like our own VIP experience. On our way back to Ensenada he asked us if we wanted to stop for tacos or souvenirs in the downtown Ensenada area before getting back on the ship. He even let us stop at OXXO for snacks! Though we didn't do the taco and souvenir stop though we had plenty of time to do so, it was just so nice and thoughtful that he offered that! He was just the best driver! 20/10! The best part is, we were back on the ship at 3:30pm and the ship leaves at 5:30pm. They will make sure you are back with more than enough time which was my biggest concern! Even if we stopped for tacos and souvenirs, we were still back to the Ensenada area around 3:00pm from our tastings with enough time to do this and be back on the ship on time. Thank you so much to Jesse, Jose Blanco, and the entire team at Ensenada Excursions! I would love to try the massage add-on next time :) If you are looking for a fun, professional, and amazing excursion company, book with Jesse and his team at Ensenada Excursions!!!

They followed up with confirming our visit, pick up locationa and time thru WhatsAp and direct phone numbers. We were picked up at the exact time and location by Gino/Genaro, who had a great van, air conditioned, and very clean. He has been working in the Valle de Guadalupe wine region for years, and knew all the many wineries and was charming and so informative. We all ate lunch at one of our favorite restaurants, the most famous pizza place high up in the forest. We had a wonderful day, and hit a few of the best wineries. My friend and I took a few more friends who had never been up to the wine country before and they were very impressed.
