★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 6 hours (approx.) Top rated

Ride rescue horses through Los Dinamos with a Mexican charro family, cross streams, enjoy tacos, and trade CDMX streets for pine forest trails.

“What an experience! We rode on forest trails through a park and had an amazing lunch at a family restaurant. Our guide Luis picked us up, got us tamales and tyalocos for breakfast and took super good care of us. The master churro (Orellia) was a ham! Good guys, good horses, great food. My only issues were that I expected more of an open mountain ride (as seen in pictures from other horse tours in the area), whereas this was on trails through the woods. I would also say that the terrain was much more gnarly than I expected for new horseback riders. But the horses handled everything well and…”

“If I could give this tour 100 stars I would. This was hands-down my favorite experience while visiting Mexico City. Luis picked us up at our hotel and took us to his uncles home where we saddled up and rode through town to the mountains. The views from the mountains were beautiful. Uncle Aurelio is a true charro and taught us how to handle the horse and walked alongside us the entire way. I don’t have too much experience riding horses, but I felt completely comfortable on the horse even with the language barrier between us. We tied up the horses and walked to a beautiful spring side town where…”

Escape Mexico City for La Marquesa’s ziplines, ATVs, horseback riding, forest views, and round-trip transport in a half-day adventure.

“One of the best kept secrets in Mexico is an understatement. I have been to six countries and my girlfriend has been to fifteen, and we both agree that this was the single best travel experience we have ever had. The trip offered a very smooth and safe pickup option right from our hotel with great communication on timing, which is a huge asset as the venue is far out in the country and would be difficult to otherwise get to. On our drive, our guide Alberto spoke very good English! He made pleasant conversation with us and provided unique insight into the history and cultural background of Mexico City…”
