"Karen did a great job! We toured 3 different farms. Watched Thoroughbreds breeze at a training track, went to the Arabian farm and went to the breeding farm. Karen was great at providing information about Ocala as we went from farm to farm. Each farm took about 20min to get to, but she was great at passing the time. Highly recommend the tour!"
"Great experience. Loved getting "up close and personal" with the beautiful horses. Tour guide was great--so personable and was very knowledgeable about not only horses and the farms but also the entire Ocala area. Would recommend it highly."
"We had a great time and I highly recommend the tour for any horse lover particularly if they are unfamiliar with the Ocala area. There were So many beautiful and serene farms to see. I enjoyed seeing the various farms and being close to so many beautiful animals. It helps you appreciate how much hard work and passion is needed to care for and train these magnificent animals. I learned a lot and found corrections to horse facts I THOUGHT I KNEW. Thank you for a wonderful morning Karen. The Scredons"
"This was a fantastic tour! The tour guide was warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. She made the tour interesting and fun with many facts about the horses, horse farms, and even the history of the city of Ocala itself. It was a nice blend of viewing farms from the van and of actually walking on the farms themselves. Interacting with and feeding the horses were highlights of the trip. Getting to see the landscapes was breathtaking. I would highly recommend doing this tour; it was worth every penny and then some."
"Went on our tour on Thursday, April 27 with Marie as our guide. Visited the World Equestrian Center, The Ocala Breeding Sales, drove through farm land, stopping at an Arabian Farm. Marie was very knowledgeable about the Horse Industry in Ocala, and horses in general. It was a pleasant day! I gave it 4 stars because the van was quite full, our spouses were in the back row and could not hear a thing Marie said over the air conditioning blowing! They missed a lot of what made the tour so special, gaining information about the different aspects of the Horse Industry as we drove from one destination to another!"
