Additional Information

Avail my services for a bargain in the coming month as I am trying to accumulate more reviews. I take pride in being one of the exclusive New York City tour guides licensed to perform Central Park tours, and probably one of the few who peddle their pedicab without any illegal engine assistance. My journey started back in 2004 after earning my degree from a smaller college located on the outskirts of London, although I originated from California. My tours major in covering the history/architecture/movie sets of the park in a factual and intriguing manner. For instance, anybody claiming to show you the Friends’ Fountain is misleading you since it’s located in LA, not Central Park.

Kindly book for at least 2 persons.

I typically meet people at a Starbucks a block south of Central Park so you don't have to go through a gauntlet of pedicab drivers pretending to sell horse carriage rides.

Fantastic Pedicab Tour with Laramie Flick - Laramie gave us a fantastic tour of Central Park. He was so friendly and funny and very knowledgeable about the park. We saw all the main highlights and Laramie provided lots of information about other features / sights too. He gave us time to get the photos that we wanted to take and took some for us too. I was so glad that we had booked Laramie in advance as when we arrived at Central Park there were lots of pedicab drivers all touting for our business and it made the whole experience much more pleasant. If you want a pedicab tour of Central Park book with Laramie. You won’t regret it!

Book it with Laramie!!! He is the best!! Informative, engaging and great sense of humor!! He knows his stuff!!! - HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!Laramie is a great guy and gave us a really excellent quick tour of Central Park. No hard sell. We hadn’t planned on a pedicab tour and didn’t think we had time as we had tickets to the Rockettes in an hour. But he gave us such a great price, $45 pp for a forty five minute tour and customized his tour for us and even guaranteed that he would deliver us the Radio City Music Hall in time for our show!!!and he did!!! That was an extra 10 minutes!!He is incredibly knowledgeable and engaging about the park, its history, celebrities and famous sites. He’s been doing this for over twenty years and he really knows the city and everything about the park. We wish we had time left in our trip to do the 3 hour tour with him and see every single thing in the park but that will have to wait until our next trip to NYC!!!HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!!

Book it - Pleasantly snarky factual tour of Central Park. Absolutely worth it to see a good chunk of the park in a small amount of time.

Modgirl66 - My daughter and myself had the most wonderful & informative pedicab ride round Central Park, Laramie certainly knew his stuff, the evening weather was very pleasant. The Park was buzzing with lots of music wee also saw a beautiful Indian Wedding .. some very famous Scottish Statues as well as American forefathers. We highly recommend Laramie if you are thinking of taken. Pedicab Ride Round the Park .. this guy knows his stuff and you won’t be disappointed. Linda & Amanda

Magical Central Park Tour - I had family visiting me in New York City and was looking for fun things to do. Although I’ve lived in NYC for 20 years Central Park is always a big and wonderful place. I thought a bicycle rickshaw tour would be a nice and fun way to see the Park. Most pedicabs have motors which doesn’t make for a peaceful experience. Then I found Laramie (all muscle) and couldn't have been happier. Laramie does this on the side for fun, exercise and extra money. He was very knowledgeable about Central Park and delights in weird and interesting details about the Park. Did you know there were goat and carriages in Central Park? He has pictures. Did you know the same man modeled for the statue of Shakespeare and 'the Civil War Soldier statue?' We learned so much and I have a new appreciation for the Park.

Best Central Park Pedicab Tour, Period! - Right before the pandemic in early March I went to NYC with my family and only now got around to leaving Laramie a much-deserved review. First of all, my family members are all very different, so finding something we can do together is challenging. I explained this to Laramie and we was brilliant! He involved all of us into conversations and pointed out aspects of Central Park that he knew we would all like. Laramie has a great sense of humor (he also does stand up comedy), and his humor came out in the tour. He is also college educated with a degree in history, and was able to offer a truly high-quality tour that was both fun and educational. My family and I go to NY every year, and we always take a tour in Central Park par our traditions. Laramie offers an experience better than the 7 other cabs I have taken in the past. Fun, informative, engaging, funny, and considerate guy. This is a great way to see the park and learn things that most other tourists miss! Highly recommend him! Also, guys like Laramie live off tips, so if you enjoy your experience, let your tip show it!
