牛仔骑马游

09年3月14日就如他们承诺的一样,很及时地开车来接了我们过去。司机热情友好,去马场的路上坐得很舒服,窗外风景优美,我们是早上去的,沿着马场转了一圈后到达了入口。负责养马放马的员工无微不至,尽职尽责,马儿都养得高大健壮。有点小贵。但总的说来,很棒的体验!

请大家有保留地看那些差评吧,08年2月5号早上我们去了,非常好玩,强烈推荐!

我们早上开始了牛仔骑马游,感觉很棒。我们一行五个女的,年龄跨度从21岁到50多岁都有,其中只有一个人有过真正骑马的经验。工作人员准时来酒店接我们。他们既热心又很有礼貌,很细心地根据我们现有的骑马水平来为我们每个人挑选匹配的马。那些马状况良好。这不是一家四星级的度假村,而是一笔真正物有所值的买卖,画卷一般错落有致的风景,180度全方位拉斯维加斯风光带,不奢华但时间和金钱花在这里却很值。要知道这些小径都没有经过修整,他们带你走的可是漫长的沿岸风光带!景色可真是壮丽。工作人员的服务让我们倍感舒适自在。由于他们不允许游客带钱包和背包,所以你可以带上一个坐垫。棒球帽也是不准带的,因为所有的帽子都必须有系带系在你的下巴上。他们免费提供骑马用的头盔。

网站上说那里弥漫着浓浓的民族气息和西方历史感,营火会上总是能听到诗歌和音乐。事实是那里根本就没有餐后甜点—只有粗鲁的牛仔Hawk坐在营火旁给我们讲述他和他老婆的故事,还有叫我们提问。根本没有诗歌和音乐,只有Hawk在围着营火不停的拿出自己的牛仔帽向大家要钱。而这已经是他第二次要小费了—甚至在骑马游开始之前他就已经开始向大家要小费了。我是用信用卡预订的—那个时候他叫我们所有人站成一排,伸出手向大家要小费。我没有用卡给小费—因为我想等得到服务后再给。我说,哦,你忘记把信用卡还给我了,他就开始粗鲁的跟我开玩笑,而且还不想还回来。我朋友随后给了钱—而我却在另一个地方等着。我朋友把小费放进了他的卡里,他把卡还给我朋友,还说“看看,就是应该这样的…现在去告诉你朋友吧!”那是什么意思?!友好的旅行怎么会是这样的。在剩下的旅行里一直都是这样。他总是粗鲁的和一些人开玩笑,只要人们超出队列5英尺,他就会大吼大叫的让别人回到队列里。停下来照相的时间非常短,而且他也不和旅游团的任何人照相。另外,我的马在向上跑的时候总是跟不上我老公的马,他离我已经有5匹马的距离了。所以我的照片都只是跟马照的,而在我前面还有一个骑着马的陌生人。马总是走一些非常崎岖的路,每小时大概只走一英里。食物还算一般。储存水的冰箱上写着“一美元一瓶水”的标志—尽管我们都以为那是应该包括在旅行里的—实际上是这样的,不过从标志上你不会知道的。提供的咖啡是冲泡的咖啡—太讨厌了。我们在一家等候的酒店等一对还没回来的夫妇就等了20分钟。后来他们打电话来告知了方位,牛仔才去把他们接回来。那对夫妇和队伍骑分散了,至少在10分钟以后我们才见到他们回来。工作人员在组织人员方面根本没有作出任何努力—都是人们自己在努力和别人交流。整个旅程中旅游团跟你往常遇到的旅游团一样—不过那并不是导游的功劳。年轻的那个女孩和巴士司机都是很棒的女士—不过关于热情待客和怎样组织一个旅游团方面每个人都有必要再上一课。Hawk的幽默(如果你喜欢那样讲的话)并不让人喜欢—粗鲁而又让人生气。而他不知羞耻的索要小费的行为更加让人失望。我想下次我会开车去更远一点的地方,试一下另一家农场—或者提前阅读更多的评论。我曾经有过好几次的骑马游的经历,这次的体验不是最好的。他们应该骑到一些更远的地方去看看所有的服务。逃离城市和狭长地带以及做一些其他娱乐真的很棒。我也很乐意这样做,不过如果我可以再去一次的话,我会试一下另一家农场,而且把我的小费留到最后,看看是否值得给。差点忘了…他们不想让你带钱包—所以你可能会把它们遗留在没有上锁的帐篷里—处于半照顾状态。由于我的钱包放在了帐篷里,感觉真的不太安全,有时可能会跟其他人一起回去拿回来,因为我把所有钱都放在里面了!而别人觉得根本无所谓。

Howdy daleg!Thanks for joining us, and thanks for taking the time to share your experience here in tripadvisor. Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew

Howdy Joan!Glad you liked the S'mores! We should mention that Buck is very proud that (barring the occasional Murphy's Law) we use Buck's homemade cookies for the S'mores. It should also be noted that they are so good we keep them under lock and key. :)Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew

Howdy Peter!We agree that our website could use a fresh coat of paint. That's why we are in the process of redesigning the interface. However, while our look may be a bit outdated we've always prided ourselves that our site is content driven. Our home page has a video and pictures that give you an immediate idea of the trails you'll ride. At the top of the Home page are links to the rides we offer where people will find descriptions, lengths of time, and pricing for the rides. It may not look pretty to everyone, but people would be hard pressed to visit our site and not find the information they are looking for... easily.Having said that, we're glad you found us online, and booked your horseback adventure. If you're ever in the area again we hope you'll rejoin us.Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew

Howdy Millie!We're glad you found us, and glad you had such a great time. Most of all we're glad you mentioned our shuttle bus driver Darlene. She's an excellent driver with a great personality, and she is just chockfull of interesting facts. She's another aspect of our service that makes your adventure just that much better.Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew

Howdy Pokey!Thanks for joining us, and thanks for the great review. Because we are a small family owned/run operation we try our best to make sure every aspect of our adventures is as perfect as possible. It's always a joy for us when people let us know we succeeded.Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew

Howdy Meredith!Thanks for joining us, and thanks for the kind words. While we are extremely proud of our WOW ride we don't really mention it often. On our web site we make a point of letting people know this ride is not for everyone. It's a lot of time in the saddle, portions of the trail are challenging, and much of the trail is in the backcountry where you have no contact with society. Of course, for some of us, those are the highlights of the ride, not the negatives. Until next year...Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew

Howdy Jodie!Thanks for joining us for the Sunset BBQ Ride. We're thrilled you had a great time. We're also glad you found the value in this adventure. With one of the best steak dinners in Las Vegas as well as a Cowboy horseback ride, Cowboy entertainment, and S'mores around the campfire under the stars we think this ranks pretty high on the list of 'Dinner and a show' experiences in Las Vegas. Yet, the cost is less than a comparable night out on The Strip. (and we provide transportation)We look forward to your next visit.Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew

Howdy Rachael!First, let us sincerely apologize for not fully preparing you for the weather conditions the night of your ride. While we endeavor to bring our guests the best of experiences, on all levels, we occasionally have missteps. On this occasion, we failed. No excuses! We hope we have an opportunity to serve you again in the future.We'd like to take this opportunity to advise other future guests that the weather in Las Vegas is not as constant as you might think. From week to week, day to day, even hour to hour it can change without warning. It's not uncommon in Las Vegas to be standing under your umbrella in the pouring rain watching a local weatherman on the television in a store window telling you it's warm and sunny out. If you visit us, or any other outdoor vendor near Las Vegas, be sure to dress in layers. You can always take cloths off if you get warm, but if you don't have them to put on when it's cold it can detract from your adventure.Again Rachael, we apologize, and hope to see you again in the future.Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew

Howdy Gary!We had so much fun on Valentine's Day weekend. All of you who participated were so much fun to be with. We're glad you were there to share the adventure with us. We particularly enjoy sharing the adventure with first time riders. As people flip through the reviews here they will see that many of our guests are first time riders or have had limited experience horseback riding. Yet, they all find the experience to be enjoyable. That's because, as you pointed out, we have many well-trained, well-mannered horses with different personalities we can match up with the various riders. And with a knowledgeable and friendly staff to watch over you you're in safe hands with us.As to the liability waiver, it's required by the insurance company. Nothing we can do about that. You'll still have to fill one out next time. ;)Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew

My wedding anniversary is in March and they were willing to let us apply the Valentine's Day Special to our anniversary. Having Valentine's Day so close to your anniversary can go a little deep into ones pocket. So I really appreciated their willingness to work with me.

Howdy Cyndi!Glad you enjoyed the ride!I have to commiserate with you regarding the jackets. Unfortunately for me, the jacket doesn't come in my size either. ;) We're working on making the merchandise available online at our web site. Check there every so often to see if you can find the jacket there in your size.Your Cowboy Trail Rides Crew
