First New York Experience - Our first experience in New York City. Was a pleasant way to 'see' Central Park. But we think to really see the park you need to spend a fair amount of time there.

Great Experience!!! - The operator (Honor) was incredible!!! Very knowledgeable, professional and pleasant!!! His knowledge of Central Park and of New York in general was very impressive. The carriage was beautiful and very clean. The horse looked healthy well taken care of. There were less expensive options available, but my wife and I are happy the we selected this carriage to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I would highly recommend this service. Can’t wait to do it again.

Perfect for a family ride around the park! - We had such a good time on this carriage ride. We had 3 adults and 2 6 year olds and we all fit comfortably. Our guide was very knowledgeable and had fluffy blankets for us to use in the cold. Would definitely book again!

Pleasant way to experience part of Central Park - A little kitsch.... But very good way to see a little of Central Park without getting tired. The coachman shows us some places where celebrities live or have passed through. Interesting but not the most important thing to do in New York.

A joyful way to experience Central Park, with Murphy - It’s got to be done. You know it’s expensive, but it’s bordering on a bucket list thing to do on a New York City visit - well I think so. So relaxing, sitting back in your carriage as Pat ambles along the winding roads and Murphy the horse takes a steady pace through the park. A friendly driver, a friendly horse - a lovey thing to do for a couple on a sunny summer afternoon.

Pricy, but….once in a lifetime, Christmas Day trip round Central Park! - This was well worth it! The trip round the park was very casual and relaxing. Our driver was a little late, but got in touch and let us know. It was hard to know which carriage was ours, but we worked it out! Plenty of sights pointed out by our carriage driver. Highly recommend!

Tour guide didn’t say much and we couldn’t hear him and sun shade was not able to go down. Guide appeared unmotivated. - Poor guided tour, couldn’t hear the guide and he appeared to lack any motivation or interest on our tour. We learned nothing and it was a waste.
