Gracious and knowledgeable, Houston-native-turned-Nevadan Marty Wright made us feel right at home among her beloved wild horses.
Well, they’re not hers, per se – as she says, “these horses belong to no one, but they belong to everyone”. But when you hear the passion and familiarity with which she speaks of them, you can’t help but feel like they’re her babies in a way; she is certainly imbued with a sense of responsibility for them.

My sister and I signed up for a tour with Marty Wright, “Wild Horses carry me away”. We met her early one morning in September 2024 and had the thrill of a lifetime. She drove us all over in her jeep for hours from one herd of horses up and over mountains to the next herd. She knows the herds and many of the horses by name and families. She brought us to watch stallions up on their hind feet almost dancing with each other. Marty said they were playing, almost like puppies do. If they were out to hurt each other that would have already happened by now. Marty really loves these “Wild horses”, and it shows. The horses live in this land and now they have become wild urban horses because the city grew up around them. It brakes my heart because where do they go?? Thankfully Marty is watching out for them and she shares that with her passengers. I highly recommend booking a tour with Marty. Our day with Marty is one to remember. I was thrilled to get so many up close photos of the mustangs in action. I can’t thank Marty enough for giving my sister and I a full action packed day.
