I'm from Missouri. Went to New York to visit my brother. Reserved the carriage ride as it was a dream of mine to ride in one. - The ride was beautiful! Our horse was gorgeous and the tour was amazing. Im so happy I booked this ride! I was not disappointed.

Wonderful Family Experience - The driver waited for us (after we'd first gone to the wrong corner) and guided us to the right place. He was pleasant, informative, and patient with our grandchildren. Had a nice warm blanket for everyone on a bitter cold day. I'd do it again with this same company.

Memorable and easy - Book it. You won’t regret it. Oliver and Bazooka were lovely. Easy to find, perfect length of time, a couple photo stops, kids got to feed Bazooka too.

Amazing experience! - Our guide, Oliver, was amazing. He was great communicating with us beforehand about where to meet. He was so incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Central Park-we learned so much! We were able to stop multiple times for photos and Oliver took great pics of us. It also was obvious that he cared greatly for our horse, Bazooka, and let my daughter pet him multiple times and even feed him carrots. I would recommend this experience to anyone visiting NYC!

Oliver was our driver and what a lovely polite and knowledgeable guy he was. His faithful horse Bazooka did a wonderful job too. We would highly recommend this company.
