Highly Recommend - I highly recommend this event. The ride started a few minutes, ~10mins, late however we were notified in plenty of time and it didn’t cause any challenges. Our driver, Oozy and horse Michelle were phenomenal. Oozy was very knowledgeable of the park and shared a lot of information that we were not aware of.
Michelle, the horse was gentle and enjoyed the carrots that we hand feed her.
This carriage ride has been something that I have wanted to do for years …and was everything that I had imagined. It was a little cold however the blanket over our laps provided that added comfort that we needed.

Perfect Ride! - My daughter and I had the loveliest time on our carriage ride with Muhammed. We found him easily upon arriving. He made sure we were cozy during our ride, providing a blanket. And he made sure to point out all of the special sites along the way. He also did a great job taking photos of us together at some special spots. It was such a great time!!

A Perfect Afternoon - This was fantastic. The perfect way to spend an afternoon in Central Park. We were blessed to have Nico and his “business partner” Victor as our escorts. We were given directions and confirmation via text messages and Nico was waiting for us exactly where he said he would be. The weather was perfect but there was a blanket available if we got cold. We clipped clopped around Central Park and Nico would stop and point out places of interest. He stopped on a couple of occasions to allow us to have a walk around (a replica of the Friends fountain, the Dakota building and the Imagine memorial to John Lennon in Strawberry Fields) and he was happy to oblige and take as many photographs as we liked. It was just perfect. Thank you Nico and Victor for helping us create a very special memory.

A little different than expected, but still worth it! - Our guide Mohammed was great! Very nice, and knowledgeable. This just wasn’t what I expected. The carriage ride has to take a specific path so you don’t get to see all the iconic spots up close and personal like the carousel, the ice rink, or the boat house on the ride but you can afterwards. Our guide however was awesome- took us to iconic spots and took pictures of lots of great spots of us. He also pointed out all kinds of iconic spots just outside the park that we didn’t realize were there. Overall it was fun and we enjoyed it, I just thought we would see things up close a little more from the booking description but some are just a pass by view instead.
