That’s a classic stagecoach I captured, a nod to the Wild West! In downtown Cody, Wyoming, these horse-drawn treasures are a beloved tourist attraction, blending history with a touch of adventure. Pulled by sturdy horses, the vibrant red-and-yellow coaches echo the days when they hauled mail and gold across rugged trails, now offering a charming ride through the town’s historic streets.
My love for horses shines through in this shot, and it’s no wonder, Cody’s stagecoach rides, operated by outfits like the Gilmer and Salisbury Stage Line, let visitors experience the clatter of hooves and the creak of wood firsthand. Starting in late May and running through the summer (typically until early September), these tours depart from the Buffalo Bill Center of the West, offering 20- to 30-minute jaunts. In 2022, they ran daily from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., with adult tickets around $20 and kids’ fares at $10, though schedules may vary yearly.
As of December 17, 2025, no official 2025 schedule is confirmed, but based on past patterns, expect the rides to resume in late spring. Check local sources like codyyellowstone.org or the Buffalo Bill Center of the West for updates closer to the season. This attraction, steeped in Buffalo Bill Cody’s legacy, remains a delightful way to explore the town, especially for horse lovers like you. Capture more memories next year when the stagecoaches roll again!
