My daughter and I decided rathe last minute to check out Western Destinations on a weekend trip we took in June. I am so happy we did! This was my daughter's favorite activity of the weekend. Even though it was hot, we loved it. We did the trail ride. We had a private trail ride which completely sold it for... More

On holiday in Phoenix from England for 2 weeks, we took a day out to go horseback riding. We were so pleased we made the decision to do something different as this experience was so memorable. Rusty, our guide, was exceptional. He was knowledgable, caring, attentive - and a true cowboy with so much experience from his many lifetime adventures.... More

My boyfriend and I vacationed in the Phoenix area in February. He found Western Destinations on Trip Advisor and signed us up. I was nervous about horse back riding because I had a scary experience as a child. Joe was our guide, and he was excellent! We met him at a restaurant close to the highway and he led us... More

We had a great time at Western destinations in late May. Chris was our guide and picked us up at Chilleans to head back to the ranch (and thank goodness, we never could have found it ourselves). The horseback riding was fun but the time shooting guns, bow and arrow, etc were the hit of the day for sure. Chris... More

I heard about this on Trip Advisor and all the comments were positive. Our family gave it a try and it was an excellent choice. Rich and Rusty were our guides for a family of 5. The youngest being 7 year old twins. The 7 year olds rode their own horses and had a smile on their face the entire... More

We had been planning a trip to see the Grand Canyon for years now. Once we got to Phoenix and researched a few attractions we decided to do the Western Destination tour. We were a party of 6. From the minute Joey picked us up from our Resort until she returned us was a wonderful experience. Rusty, Joey and Jim... More

Just a short ride from Phoenix, it's well worth it. Horse back riding, bow and arrow shooting, horse shoe tossing and firing a 22. An very good BBQ lunch, as well. It was fun and the guide was friendly. We made a reservation for just the two of us expecting to be part of a group, but we had a... More

Western Destinations does a fantastic job of making you feel like a real cowboy/girl for the day. We arrived at Chilleans Steak House off the highway where a truck meets you to follow him back to the ranch. The ride is mostly on a dirt road but it gets you ready for the adventure! Our family saddled up and we... More

I totally recommend this day out for anyone and everyone. Horse back riding in the desert, lassoing, shooting, tomahawk throwing, walking around an old wild west town and the whole time provided with endless interesting facts about the desert, Indians, cacti etc etc. All this with our own personal guide, Zach, who not only was extremely attentive but was great...

My daughter and I went for a ride as part of her 18th birthday trip. We ended up with our own guide, 2 great horses, and it was just the two of us. Rich was our guide who taught my daughter to fire a pistol, shoot a bow and arrow, and took pictures of us while we were riding. Thanks... More
