My daughter found Mo’s online and we called to get information. Mo was very informative when we talked. He gave us instructions on how the day of the ride would look. When we arrived, Mo instructed us to the exact location on his ranch. My daughter has had lots of horse riding experience but Mo trained her in how to handle his horses. This was like nothing we have ever experienced. We had an incredible time! Mo spent well beyond the time we booked just having fun with us, teaching us, and telling stories. He praised my daughter for how great she was doing and she learned more about riding in a couple of hours than she did in years of training! Mo played music, took videos, and showed us a wonderful time! If you want to ride horses, learn about horses, have a great time, and make a new friend, Mo’s is the place to go!
I was looking for horseback riding near Birmingham and came across Mo’s Carriages and Trail Rides. I called to get more info and reserved a day to go riding with a group of friends for my birthday. The owner requests that you call the day of hours before your reservation to confirm your ride, which I did. I had a group of seven including myself. The GPS took us all to a cabin building on a ranch in Clanton. Someone gave us directions to drive further down a dirt road to the actual trails. We met Moses (“Mo”) who was finishing up a ride from another group. He assigned us to our horses and helped each of us saddle up. He even had boots for those who needed proper shoes. My friends and I had a GREAT time! Moses was friendly, had a great personality, and captured lots of video footage and photos for us. He coached us as we were riding the horses and told us stories. He led the group in a “Happy Birthday” song for me and was a wonderful host. He guided us on how to handle the reigns when going up the hill and down the hill and leading the horses. We galloped and rode probably four miles on the trail. The horses were very well trained and are used to people. They fell in line and knew their places in the pack. It was a wonderful and memorable experience. My friends and I would love to do it again. I highly recommend Mo’s. The only thing is we needed a quick horse lesson before the trail ride because we were all beginners and relatively new to handling horses. But five stars for the experience, the owner’s friendliness, and how he showed us a great time. I had a great birthday. Thank you so much!
I had an incredible time embarking on my first horseback ride at MO’s Carriages and Trail Rides. Moses, our guide, was exceptionally reassuring, ensuring my group and I felt completely comfortable and well-cared for. His guidance was top-notch, putting us at ease. The horses were wonderfully trained and calm. I even got to feed Daisy, my horse, which helped me feel more relaxed on the journey. I’m delighted to have crossed horseback riding off my bucket list and eagerly anticipate doing it again.
Oh my goodness what a great afternoon we had! My wife and I were visiting Birmingham from Michigan to celebrate a wedding anniversary. I knew she liked horses and we set up a ride with Mo. It was a beautiful day and Mo selected perfect horses for us. He even loaned us some boots! Mo gave me some extra tips (I’m pretty inexperienced) and I was surprised at how natural it felt after a bit. We got customized 80s music (I’m also old) and it was a real hoot riding. We even got to gallop. Major was a friendly and very well trained horse. I know it’s crazy, but I could see myself getting a horse—it was that much fun and they are such wonderful animals. Mo was simply fantastic and a top notch host.
This was a great date. My girlfriend and I went horseback riding for the very first time. We chose the hour long ride. The guide, Moses, made us feel very comfortable as he told us about the training and taming of his horses and showed us everything possible you can do to make them buck and they responded calmly or not at all. The horses were clean. The trail was great, not all flat making it an easy ride. It really helps with getting over your fear of riding horses if you have any. The way they handle the trail really makes you appreciate their smartness. Moses talks with you and ride along with you if needed making you comfortable as can be. He’s willing to let you be as free as you’d like if you’re willing to ride faster and get that experience that you’re craving. The horses are very obedient and calm. It was a great experience and we can’t wait to go back.
