Amazing guide with tons of fun facts - The guide was amazing and so knowledgeable. He knew every question we asked and had lots of interesting fun facts about the city. Central Park was beautiful and peaceful at night. The carriage cushions were so comfortable and the blankets warmed us up completely and were a very nice addition.

Night time trip - Firstly thank you to Top Hat NY our flight was cancelled less then 24hrs to our carriage ride but they kindly moved the day for us with no issue.
We arrived at the meeting point to what was a damp night in NY we where meet by our driver Paris who once checked in introduced us to Simba who had his rain coat on to keep the worst of the weather off….
Paris and Simba set off and explained what buildings within Central Park where when they were built and any interesting facts also pointing out where films had been made some famous and some not so much, we got photo opportunities along the way and overall had a great carriage ride.

Relaxing and peaceful! - This was a very nice ride for a family, and I think it would be very romantic for a couple. Overall,, we did enjoy it and we especially liked interacting with the horse before and after the ride. We also appreciated the rider for waiting for us as we were running behind. He was patiently waiting and ready for us when we arrived. Due to rushing we did not get coffee, chai or wine, which I think would have enhanced the experience and relaxation after a long day in time square! Nevertheless, it was fine! It's all what you make it and if I had the chance, I would do it again.

Disappointed and frustrated - A hour before our appointment I received a phone call that all rides were suspended due to heat. Which I understand. What I don’t understand is why my money was taken ….$250 and it’s gonna take 3 days for a refund. If they knew at 11 am all rides were suspended then they should t have continued to book for the day. We planned our evening around that ride…..you only visit NYC for a limited amount of time….do t waste my time or money! Be upfront and honest on your bookings!
