Horseback riding was memorable. But the entire experience was extremely disorganized and low-quality. The website where I booked the experience scheduled us for 10:30AM and implied that we were going to meet in Atlanta and be driven by bus to the horseback riding and wine tasting. But 1 day before the booking, I received a grammatically incorrect email message telling me to go to Dillard GA at 1 PM instead. It was a struggle to get in touch with someone to confirm that this new information was indeed correct.
The wine tasting only offered 4 wine samples. Every wine tasting I've ever been to has offered more than 4 wine samples, usually involves walking through vineyards, and usually offers snacks to eat with the wines.
Also, a lot of the instructions that I received were sent to me at the last minute and by text message. Communication did not seem clear, professional, or organized. It honestly felt like a teenager in a basement was throwing everything together at the last minute and text messaging me incoherent details.
After horseback riding and wine tasting the next day, Dante text messaged me to meet him at the "Burger King in Clayton" for our "light lunch." He didn't give me an address or specify what the lunch would entail. When we arrived at the Burger King, he told us to follow him by car to the hiking location. When we arrived for the hike, he pulled homemade snacks out of his backpack for "lunch" that he had presumably made himself. He told us we could wash our hands in the local river.
