Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We did the 20 minute pony ride for our daughters 6th birthday. She had a great experience with her instructor (sorry we can’t remember her name!). She let her hold the rope like reigns and that was a big deal! Something she told me she hoped to do before we got there and without saying anything it magically happened! I would definitely go back for another ride for her because it wasn’t just a ride it was the whole experience of learning and feeling like she was doing a lot of the leading of her pony, Trooper. Thank you Shelby farms stables for making a memorable birthday for our daughter.

For this year’s spring break, I took my 8 yr old granddaughter here for a 30 minute trailride. It was a fair price, nice staff and great looking horses. My granddaughter loved her ride and had a great time with the horses. There are pony rides for the littler ones and you can walk beside the pony to keep your child feeling safe. The people who run it are friendly, professional and help everyone have a good safe experience. Go ride a horse ! Or a pony!

We did the 60 minute trail ride and had a wonderful time. Our guides Kate and Kenzie were helpful and reassuring. Even having limited riding experience I never felt nervous. It was a relaxing time outdoors. The rest of the staff who handled our check in and setup with the horses were also friendly and helpful. I could tell everyone cares about the horses and takes good care of them. We will be back and highly recommend this experience!

Wonderful experience!! The staff were so welcoming and so sweet to my 8 yr. old son. Joan, Ben and Maria were excellent trail guides! A special thank you to Ben and Maria for encouraging my son who was a little uneasy around the horses at first. Joan was very knowledgeable and took use through beautiful parts of Shelby Farms. We cannot wait to go back!!

I took my 6 year old daughter for a pony ride at SF yesterday. She had a fantastic time. The guides were thoughtful regarding her nervousness, and had her comfortable in the saddle quickly. They took excellent Covid-19 precautions, even outdoors. While on the pony trail, we saw 6 deer on the hill above us, which was a fun surprise. I highly recommend this activity with SF Stables. The online booking option is super easy to use.

We had a fantastic time on a pony ride celebrating our daughter’s birthday! 🎉 (We took 8 kids, ages 5-12.) Jess and the team of volunteers made it so interesting and fun! Everyone was new to riding and had a great time. We got wonderful pictures and want to go back again tomorrow! 😂

A great experience! Great for families or couples. Horses are beautiful and clearly well-cared for. We had an amazing guide from Australia who led our tour. There were so many staff members to assist and everything was well-run and organized. Bring a healthy tip for your guide...they are volunteers and rely on the tips they earn.

We took our six year old to do the 20 minute pony ride. Our guide, Sophia, was amazing. She spoke directly to our son and involved him in every step of the process. He was disappointed that the ride was not longer. We will definitely be back.

I took the Shelby Farms 1 1/2 hour trail ride yesterday. Sage was my guide and I rode Ozzie. It was a very relaxing ride. I got lucky and only had the guide so it was basically a private ride. Saw deer, a hawk and some geese on the ride. Sage tried to take some photos for me with her phone but unfortunately they did come out well. I did take some after ride pictures with my phone. Saw their new foal, Cola and took pictures of several of the other horses on the farm with their permission.

I had a wonderful time riding with the stable guide Joan. The forest around the trail is beautiful with sightings of deers, raccoons and other animals. I was lucky to meet a 1-month old baby horse on the farm. Highly recommended!

If staying at a downtown hotel without a vehicle, what would be the recommended way to get to the horse stables ? My daughter wants me to book this when we visit Memphis in April. Thanks!

Uber is going to be your best way to get there.
