Thank you Letti! My wife and I had an amazing experience. We did the hour long evening ride the day after New Years. Our horse Sophia was a sweetheart, and our driver Letti was the best! Everything as described. Thoughtful and considerate. Private and romantic. Warm blankets and a great guide. Thank you!

This is something i have wanted to do, but never had the chance it was a delightful experience. Breeze didn't want her photo taken so a little blurry but enjoyed the ride...

We had a great experience with this carriage ride company. They were professional, courteous, and full of information. We stopped at the various highlighted spots in Central Park and the driver took pictures of our group and provided interesting information. Highly recommend them!!!

This was our 3rd ride with NYC Horse Carriage Rides in the last 9 years. They are the best! Every driver we have had has taught us something new about the city we love. Mark was our latest driver and we really enjoyed him!
Joe Plaisance
Troy, our driver, was very knowledgeable and an excellent photographer. “Handsome Jack” was a perfect gentleman who allowed us to hand feed him the treats that we brought with us for the occasion. 10/10 Would definitely ride again and would recommend to anybody who asks.

The carriage ride was fun for the adults and kids. The driver was very personable and gave us lots of great information about the park. He took photos for us, too. The ride was shorter than expected (about 35 min), but we enjoyed it!

A really great experience, all perfect. Our driver was already waiting for us when we arrived and made sure we were comfy and cosy before we set off. Great commentary and several photo opportunities as well as a treat to give the horse at the end. Highly recommend this trip

Arriving at Central Park with snow on the ground was a magical site, this was further made very special by our carriage ride around the moon lit park. Our guide was friendly, informative and respectful of both us and the lovely Sam (the horse). We certainly seen sites we would have surly missed otherwise. We will definitely be repeating this upon our next visit to wonderful New York City

Our carriage ride was so amazing!! The buggy was comfortable fireball 4 of us and we stayed warm with the heavy blankets provided. Henery our Driver was very welcoming, very informative about the history of the park and landmarks and took the most gorgeous pictures of our family! Lady Liberty the horse was so smart and so sweet. I truly enjoyed our time there and would recommend it to anyone! 10/10! Thanks so much for the amazing experience for our family!
Ashley Palermo
We had the best experience with Josh. He was just absolutely amazing and knowledgeable! We got to know about his life and he got to know us! He took beautiful photos of us, horse Starlight was stunning and friendly. Thick blankets are provided bc it was very cold! Couldn’t have asked for a more relaxing ride. Definitely once in a lifetime experience. Kids enjoyed more than I thought even as a local, I seen things I haven’t seen and learned some other fun facts! Thank you an again guys!!! definitely recommend!

We made our annual trip to NYC. We had the purple carriage. Our pictures were awesome. I forgot our drivers name. He was great and didn’t talk a lot. Sometimes we get drivers that talk too much. Overall, very satisfied and would recommend to anyone looking to take the carriage ride in Central Park.

It was a great way to spend a late afternoon early evening in NYC. The driver was very knowledgeable on the history of central park and the surrounding area. Sherman our horse was very cute and patient with us as we made many stops. It was 2 weeks before Christmas and it was very chilly. We were provided with a warm blanket to keep us warm. I learned more about NYC and central park than I could from any history channel show. By the time the ride was over it was dark and we took in all the Christmas lights on our walk back to the hotel. This was a highlight of our trip to New York.
Lorie Chell
Wonderful place and wonderful memories made. And one of the main reasons I love this company is because they don’t take their horses through all of the traffic and craziness during Christmas. We loved our drivers and even the crabby old horse Rudy.
Debbie Lodge
A wonderful, informative and truly magical rude through Central Park. Our driver was so sweet and professional; my daughter and grandson and enjoyed feeding carrots to her horse “Starlight”. Highly recommend this carriage company. My only concern was how difficult it was to find the carriage company. Directions were not terrific….but we found the location in time.
Thank you for a memorable evening
Helen Burton
Fantastic, lovely people with lots of interesting info about Central Park, we all really enjoyed it
Jay Popat
Excellent service from the staff. Explained all the famous view points from the carriage and stopped at some location to take photos.

My brother and his girlfriend visited my wife and I from NC for a NYC holiday tour in mid Dec. Part of the plan included the Central Park carriage ride. In short, it was magical! We loved our driver and our horse named Lady Liberty. She was beautiful. It made our visit extra special! We would highly receommend the ride to others!!!
Alison Griffith
"Handsome Jack" was a wonderful guide, taking the time to point out all the memorable sights and to take wonderful pictures of us.
Carlos Munoz
10/10 would recommend!! Our guide was amazing she had so much information about New York and she was very friendly. She offered to take pictures of us. Very good time !!
Gillian Van Kempen
We had the most incredible experience with the NYC Horse Carriage Rides just before Christmas! Our scenic journey through Central Park was not only breathtaking but also wonderfully informative.
Our driver was friendly and knowledgeable, pointing out familiar and historic landmarks as well as famous movie locations throughout the park. It added a whole new layer of appreciation for the area, and we learned so much along the way.
The holiday atmosphere made the ride even more magical, with the twinkling lights, crisp winter air, and the charm of the carriage itself. It felt like stepping into a scene from a classic New York Christmas movie.
This was truly a highlight of our trip to NYC, and we would recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable, enchanting experience.

We had a wonderful time! Henry was a delight! Lots of knowledge and kept us entertained. Breeze was a sturdy steed with a mind of his own. Tried to wander off while Henry was getting a photo of us at the fountain! Well worth the price! It's as much a "must do" as a gondola in Venice!
David Hyde
We had an amazing time with a very knowledgeable carriage driver. The trip around Central Park was very memorable.
Amy S
Our carriage ride was absolutely amazing and a fantastic way to explore the city with my daughter. Our tour guide was so nice and incredibly patient, giving us time to capture lots of photos throughout the tour. He was also very knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about Central Park along the way. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to enjoy NYC! A truly memorable experience!!!
