Moni Provided an Amazing Pedicab Private Tour of Central Park - Moni was a trouper and an amazing guide. We went on a very rainy Spring Day and he rode in the open providing narrative all along the way. He was so positive and upbeat during the whole ride. We got to see the highlights of Central Park and stopped at the 4 stops promised. Would very highly recommend both the tour and Moni as the guide.

Memorable and Fun!! - Very memorable experience from our NY trip. The Beatles songs while going around Central Park made it more impactful! Jon, our guide was very comedic, resourceful and energetic. He went out of his way to assist my mom with mobility issues. We appreciate it!
