Ride through San Miguel de Allende’s high desert, learn ranch traditions, and enjoy fresh cheese and a home-cooked meal at Rancho Xotolar.

“The most fantastic horseback ride!! Loved every moment! A family run business, wherein a nephew picked us up from our hotel and took us out to the family ranch. There we experienced ranch living and cheese making which later we ate at dinner. The family was very accommodating to my wife’s hip limitation and fear of heights and provided her own guide to make sure she felt safe. Due to rain the previous day, the guides went ahead to ensure the safety of the trails... once we got off and walked for our safety. They also took our phones and made photos/videos so we could relive the experience later. Afterward,…”

After enjoying breakfast we started our riding adventure. Our guide was wonderful and shared a lot of information. The ranchers we had were delightful. The horses were well trained.

Ride through San Miguel de Allende’s countryside, villages, and fields with friendly guides, gentle horses, local snacks, and a cold drink afterward.

“I cannot say enough good things about our ride with Rancho Baile de la Luna. Jeff and Chris were such welcoming and warm hosts, and they were so patient with my husband and myself, as we hadn't ridden horses in quite a while. Our ride through the campo with Jeff and Roberto was wonderful-- the area is so beautiful, and they have carried on a wonderful tradition of giving out lollipops to the local children on the route. You can tell that they love and respect the land and their neighbors so much. Importantly, the horses are clearly very loved and cared for, with wonderful temperaments. This was truly the…”
