Destination 2: Tanque Verde Ranch

I had the pleasure of visiting this amazing dude ranch in Tuscon, Arizona named Tanque Verde. There is something for everyone! If you love the desert or horses or eating delicious foods this is the place to go! I know that horseback riding is not for everyone but its okay because this ranch has so many more things to offer! One of my personal favorites is the mountain biking through the saguaro cactus infested desert. As mentioned before, the food here is amazing as well; with frequent cowboy cookouts outdoors for dinner with live country music. To get back on the topic of horseback riding, there are lessons from children to older adults. There are a wide variety of lessons available, including an entire program dedicated to younger children. The lessons range from hour walking rides, loping rides, or if chosen, professional, private lessons. Having a private lesson will give you so much more information on how to handle a horse and is great for those who need to gain a higher comfort level with a horse. After long days of adventure, there are also several things to do to relax. With amazing and comfortable rooms that make you feel at home, it is easy to relax. Water coloring is a professional artist is an easy way to unwind in the afternoons. This is one of my favorite activities as well because of how fun it is for all ages. Finally, massages and indoor and outdoor pools and hot tubs are available for all. The two pictures listed below are, in order, a view near the horse stables, and an image of the horses lined up by one of the pancake breakfasts. The website of​ this spectacular getaway is listed below, I hope you have a chance to visit, enjoy!
