Return To Freedom - Wild Horse Conservation - Lompoc, California

SO impressed! My husband took me here as a surprise adventure for my birthday and we had an amazing afternoon. We did the horse photography safari and had a wonderful time. Neither of us are photographers but I got some great pictures with my cell phone and it was so fun to learn about the horses and all of the rescue work. The tour was comprehensive, well staffed with the NICEST guides, and refreshments were provided mid-way through. I would highly recommend this place and hope to be going back soon. My husband said they were super responsive & friendly when he called multiple times with questions beforehand. Bring a bandana or dust mask if you're sensitive to dust (and it's a windy day), but otherwise they have what you need and you will have an awesome time!!!

Beautiful sanctuary. The horses are well taken care of and just gorgeous. We got to go within the herd, and the horses got so curious and came right up to us! It was a magical experience to be crowded by these majestic animals.

Neda took two horses we adopted (15 and 2 years old) who had stolen our hearts from the 2021 Pancake roundup. She and her crew are amazing, generous, and we love them!

It is amazing to hear about what they are doing for these majestic creatures. The tour was awesome, but if you aren't able to come do a tour, please find other ways you can help them by going to their website.

I had to go to Lompoc to pick something up and since I have lived in So. California all my 72 years but have never been to Lompoc my husband and I decided to make it a two day adventure. I looked online to see what there was to do there and found the Return to Freedom American Wild Horse Sanctuary. I called and made a reservation for a tour. Just driving there was wonderful…beautiful scenery.

When we got there we were greeted by Kelsey and shown a short DVD about the Sanctuary. A great, interesting, informative introduction. Then we were taken to see the horses. I am not really a horse person. I've been on a horse three times in my life and was scared stiff each time. No one was more surprised than I was when I found I loved being surrounded by these magnificent creatures and enjoyed petting them. We even got to see the famous Spirit. My finicky husband was having the time of his life.

I wish I had known about the Wild Horse Sanctuary a long time ago. I will recommend a trip there to everyone I know. And I can't wait to go back again!
