Texas Border Tours offers some of the most exceptional off-the-beaten-path experiences. Try the horseback trail rides if you are seeking something enjoyable, daring, or adventurous. The well-trained horses have accumulated hundreds of trail ride hours over the past few years and can accommodate riders of all levels, from beginners to seasoned pros. Riding these horses through the trails is a unique and unforgettable experience you won't find anywhere else. Many clients find it nostalgic and rejuvenating. It's not just a peaceful ride to the border; it's also an adrenaline-pumping adventure that takes you through some of South Texas' lesser-known areas that are not easily accessible via major roads. They offer more than just horseback trail rides. Their services also include guided ATV tours, where you can explore the local terrain and ride along the border fence until you reach the Rio Grande River. You can choose between a one- or two-hour tour, offering a unique opportunity to cruise on an ATV along a section of the border wall constructed in 2006. This exclusive business concept has been popular among reporters and news outlets, allowing them an up-close experience with the border wall.
