Ruby's Horseback Adventures Utah Halbtagesritt

The half day we did was from 1pm-5pm. You meet at the adventure desk in the main hotel and then leave in a van for a half hour ride to Losee Canyon where you get your horse and they go over safety and logistics. The ride began at 2pm. The horses are fantastic. They are well-trained horses. Our guide was Gavin. The ride had no historical commentary despite stating on the description that it was one of Butch Cassidy’s hideouts. When I asked Gavin our elevation he said 2500ft. Actually we were at about 7700ft. The ride was pretty silent except for my family talking to each other. Most of the ride is not shaded and on the way back we were pretty exhausted. Our guide provided no interesting facts other than to point out what certain hoodoo formations looked like (ie old lady playing piano). It was not worth the $680 we paid for the five of to ride horses for approximately two hours in the dry heat. Had there been some historical or geographical context it would have been much more interesting.

I'm very sour because my plans were ruined, my time wasted, and my party was manipulated into cancelling our ride. I'm convinced that my guide just didn't want to get wet. It would be better if they just had a policy for the guide to be able to cancel the ride if they don't think the weather is appropriate.

Un peu déçu car on nous a vendu ce tour à cheval sur le parc de bryce canyon... on a fait plus de forêt qu'autre chose c'es dommage. L'expérience était sympa, les chevaux adorables, bémol pour les animateurs au début car n'étant pas super à l'aise avec leur langue, ils n'ont pas vraiment essayé de comprendre mais c'était des directives de sécurité donc les annoncer sans qu'on les comprenne... il y a un problème quand même! Bref heureusement, nous avions déjà fait du cheval en France. A découvrir ou pas.
