Horse Capital Tours
Florida provides you with the most unique opportunity … swim with the Manatees in the morning followed by a tour of the world famous Grandview Clydesdales.
Some tours encourage interaction with the horses. However, most are working farms and will not allow — for your safety — touching or feeding the horses. Be sure to ask before doing. These are not “petting zoos.”
Many of the farms themselves have no restrictions against children. Check the individual tour listing for exact age ranges.
Although many tours are “kid-friendly,” think carefully before bringing your children to a working horse farm. Keep in mind, kids without an express interest in horses may find the tours boring –no petting, no running, no loud talking– or they may be exposed to information that may not be age-appropriate, such as, the details of horse breeding.
