Choose Between Two Options

  • $35 for a two-hour horseback trail ride for one (up to a $70 value)
  • $64 for a two-hour horseback trail ride for two (up to a $140 value)

Guides help riders pick a horse suited to their experience level before setting out down trails with wide views of saguaros, desert wildlife, the McDowell Mountains, and Camelback Mountain. Beginners learn the basics of horsemanship before starting their journey. Intermediate and more experienced riders can make use of the wranglers’ knowledge to enhance their riding skills, learn about the Sonoran Desert, and explore the history of the west. One 5-year-old can join each group of seven and will get to ride on his or her own horse behind the tour guide.

Macdonald Ranch

There's something timeless about Macdonald Ranch. Maybe it's that visitors can take a guided horseback ride through the desert, pose for an old-time photo, or ride a stagecoach—which in certain cases, might be held up by actors dressed as outlaws. But whatever the reason guests dock their zeppelin at Macdonald Ranch, the staff hopes to treat them to a fun ranch experience. They surround them with music, cowboy shows, and seasonal attractions such as the annual pumpkin festival.

Macdonald Ranch covers 1,300 acres of the scenic Sonoran Desert. Whether on horseback or a hayride, guests can explore the area and view its desert flora, hawks, petrified spurs, and coyotes.

The Groupon Guide to: Victimless Crimes

Everyone wants the thrill of committing a crime, but no one wants the guilt of hurting another person, physically or financially. With that in mind, here are some victimless crimes for you to commit without consequence:

  • Not wearing a seatbelt in your own home
  • Downloading public-domain MP3s of military marching bands performing Sousa’s rousing classics
  • Whispering movie spoilers to a sleeping baby
  • Playing paintball in the Statue of Liberty if you promise to stay late and clean up afterward
  • Yelling “no way!” at a mailbox
  • Coloring outside the lines, baby

What are some victimless crimes that you can commit free of guilt? Find out in today's Groupon Guide.
