Questions and Answers
I have ridden with Cave Creek Outfitters – a great bunch of people and really nice horses in a part of the desert with panoramic views. What a smokin’ deal!
Marie,
That’s right. Take as many as you want as long as everyone has a Groupon. Make sure you call plenty ahead of time to make a reservation. Have fun!

Can children participate in this trail ride? If so, do they ride independently or with a parent?
LOL @Wendy I was just about to ask the same question.
Hi Wendy and Samson,
Children can ride alone, but they must be at least 6 or older. There are no “double-rides”, so everyone must ride alone.
Thanks!

I signed up, put my card number in and didn’t get a confirmation. This is my first time purchasing, is that normal?
It takes time for the conformation to come through. Usually about 14-16 hours from my experience…
Hi Tristyn,
Welcome to Groupon! Ray is right, there are a huge amount of orders being processed so just be patient with us. The Groupon isn’t valid for use until the day after the feature, so if you don’t have it by then feel free to email support@groupon.com and they’ll help you.
Enjoy!

Am I to understand that if you buy one goupon for this ride that you can not ride with others that have not bought a groupon? It is a one purchase deal so don’t I get to ride when I want to after making a reservation?
Carla,
Not at all. This purchase gets you on the 2-hour horseback-riding tour, whether it be with those who’ve purchased a Groupon as well or with those who have paid the regular price. I would suggest that you call plenty of time ahead if you have a large group that you’d like to go with.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for your quick response and Yes now I get it!!
Hello! I was wondering if there were any other fees and/or taxes involved, or will this groupon cover everything for the horse ride? Thanks!
Taxes are not included Hiquin and tipping is at the rate of the orginal price!! I read all that in the “fine print”.
Hello Huiqin,
No other fees, this Groupon will get you the ride. We suggest that you tip the Wranglers, they work hard in ensuring that you have a great time and there awesome at it!

You could not ask for a better Outfit to ride with. Cave Creek Outfitters are genuine real horse people who love what they do, are awesome at it, and will make your experience one you will never forget. This is an awesome chance at a ride that will afford you unbelievable scenery, Photo Oppurtunities of the Arizona desert and a real Trail Master at your lead! Don’t miss the chance to ride with them!
Am considering getting 6 certificates for visitors coming to AZ. We would have about a 3-day window for use. If I cannot use it for them, I would not want it. What if the company cannot get us in during our window time?
Is the ride a traditional trail ride or is there room for some galloping and trotting?
Hi Dawn,
I can not guarantee you that you’ll get those dates you’re looking for. Best to call them at 480.471.4635 and ask them if they can get you in for sure before purchasing.
Mariana-
It’s a traditional ride through the scenic Arizona desert, I don’t believe you’ll be doing any galloping.
Enjoy!

Hey folks,
I would love to purchase this for my girlfriend. She is well below the 230 pound weight limit – yay! I however, am about 280. Any idea if they have big boy horses, even if its at a regular price?
Thanks,
Hi Bobby,
I’m sorry to tell you that the weight limit is a firm 230 lbs. The horses vertebrae can’t handle the weight much over that. Keep checking the deals and thanks for the great question!
-Brett, Groupon Staff
What if I buy two tickets and we strap two horses together? Equal distribution across vertebrae? Perhaps rest a sofa across their backs?
Bobby,
Our best bet is horse & buggy. Let me know if you can rent one, maybe the horse could just pull you.
Brett
heh there….just wondering if there would be any option for buying the one hour ride. i’d like to bring my 6 year old daughter, but don’t think she could withstand 2 hours. thanks.
Hi Karen,
I’m sure if you don’t mind paying the $38 for this Groupon, but requesting that it be the one-hour tour instead that it will be fine. You may want to call in and check with Cave Creek Outfitters to be sure.
Have fun,
Brett, Groupon Staff
would the ride in the desert be dusty?
Andy,
You’ll be on trails, so no it won’t be bad at all.
Brett, Groupon
It’s good for any number of people in a group as long as each person has a coupon & not limited to one coupon per group?
