Best Way to see LA from afar

This was a beautiful horseback tour through a section of Griffith Park. We saw so much iconic LA with the nature of California. Hydrate, wear comfortable clothes and shoes, you cannot carry a bag or water with you. You will get dusty! My horse and my daughter’s horses were so sweet. The cowgirls/tour guides instructed us very well to manage our horse on the trail. They were so helpful! We are both beginner riders and we had a blast. 10/10 would do again in a heartbeat.

Still happy to have done

Positive: the horses were very quiet, the guides nice, the horses who seemed to have a back problem (very dug, too many tourist weights?) Have not worn anyone, we see the real "Hollywood" sign in a little moment To be improved: timing 40 minutes late (+30 minutes before, we waited 1h10!!!), 21 people it's a group too big, the ride makes a round trip would have deserved to make a loop, the enclosure that seems too small for the number of horses.

I recently had a...

I recently had a wonderful solo horseback riding experience that I highly recommend. The ride was well-guided, and the duration felt ideal for enjoying the scenery and the overall adventure. The information provided beforehand was very useful, though I would have appreciated a specific “what to wear” guide to help with preparation. One note for future riders: while the booking stated the ride would start at 9, and I assumed an hour ride meant we would be done by 10, we didn’t finish right about 11. I wasn’t in a rush, but this is worth keeping in mind if you are planning back-to-back activities. All in all, it was a great experience that I would gladly do again! :))

No prior experience of horse riding is required. The staff is professional and gentle and can accommodate for special needs where possible. Scenery is beautiful

Great experience

Had a great time!! My husband and I haven’t ridden horses together before. It was so much fun and easily explained. The horses were calm, so well behaved and clearly well taken care of.

Had a wonderful time!

We came up as part of the LA leg of our California trip. We had an absolutely fantastic time. The staff were wonderful - particularly Cass - and the views were spectacular. Horses really well trained, and the whole ride was well organized and managed. So pleased, we all bought one of the very srylish shirts. Thank you Sunset Ranch!

Once in a lifetime experience

This was Absolutely terrifying. However, I’m so grateful to the attentive staff who was by my side completely the entire time. My hand was literally shaking for about the entire first half, but after working with Lennox, my spirit was completely calm and I forgot I was up there riding at times! It’s something I will never forget. Thank you for this experience Lennox and staff, I’ve been telling everyone about it as I type!!
