Great choice if your time is limited in Memphis.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 219 reviews · from $85

Ride calm horses through Shelby Farms, a huge urban park in Memphis. Beginner-friendly, guided, and geared up for about $85.

“Axel was our guide and she was so very kind, helpful and friendly. My friends and I (a group of 3) along with a couple were the only ones on the tour. It felt fairly private which I enjoyed. This was our first time horse back riding and it was an amazing experience. Our horses were tamed and the steps to handle them were easy to follow. We rode for an hour through a forest where we saw deer - which was really neat. Our experience was that much better because of our tour guide Axel!”
