My friend and I were on a cross-country road trip, and were excited to find Windwalker on the internet. We are both experienced riders, and were looking for an advanced trail ride with well-cared for horses. We called the woman Shelly who books the rides about 10 different times, and she was very patient and helpful as she worked with our ever-changing plans and our financial constraints. She reminded us that we needed to be ready for a summer morning ride no later than 7am for the type of ride we were planning to do, which was helpful because he had not considered how hot it would get for the horses later in the day. Initially, we were worried about the price, but when our horses arrived with competition-grade tack, new shoes, and a healthy appearance, we knew our money was being well-spent on the upkeep of some tremendously athletic Arabians.
I appreciated that our guide Joseph was punctual, professional, and willing to lend half-chaps along with the standard equipment. Joseph was very knowledgeable about the local landscape, and he was able to answer every science question that I, a teacher, could fire at him. I appreciated his connections with each of his horses, and it was indicative of the overall high quality of horsemanship and care that are hallmarks of Windwalker. We enjoyed our walk-trot-canter ride, and were especially grateful for Joseph's willingness to stop for photo and video opportunities. I hope to be back in the are again to experience the desert as only Windwalker can facilitate. THANK YOU!
