After their excursion, riders and enthusiasts of all things equine can continue their path of discovery by visiting one of the many local talaberterías, or saddle makers, where craftsmen hand-stitch the saddles made to measure in the old tradition, or visit the ranch of the "Dancing Horses" at the Cuadra la Esperanza in Tlajomulco, Jalisco.
