Had a great time on the tour and will even consider staying in this area next time we visit. - Very friendly company and guide. Loved the ride on the beach and through the town and all the horses we got to see. The company was very good at communicating with us in the days before our tour as Hurricane Erin was approaching and we had to reschedule. I would highly recommend this tour and company.
