We were 30 minutes early but were immediately accommodated. Our driver Pedro was very friendly & informative. We took the 60 min VIP tour & were blessed with a beautiful sunny morning in Central Park. We had 3 photo stops & Pedro took some excellent pics. At the end of the tour I got to reward our beautiful horse Olaf with a carrot. I would highly recommend this relaxing way to enjoy Central Park.

Our horse Toby and his Friend Leo gave us a 45 minute history filled tour of Central Park and it was amazing. I would highly recommend NYC Horse Carriage

I don’t a lot of reviews, but we rented two carriages for our group. It was our first trip to NY, and we had people that were local that also took this tour for the first time. Highly recommend. We did the long route - our tour guides were well versed in the history and anecdotes, the horses well cared far (that was really important), carriages themselves well maintained. We had a blast! Highly recommend.

This was a bucket list item. I have always, ALWAYS wanted to take a guided carriage ride through Central Park, but I always felt silly doing it when I was an actual resident of NYC. Fast forward almost 10 years later, and taking my 8-year-old twins to Central Park for the first time in their young lives provided the perfect opportunity to do it.
Our guide was Toby and our horse was Leo, and they were both fabulous!!! Toby was SO sweet and knowledgeable and kind to our whole family. He showed us where they filmed all the iconic movies in the park and took so many amazing picture of us in the carriage, at Bethesda Fountains, in front of the San Remo, feeding Leo, etc. He was an excellent photographer, and we will probably use one of the photos for our holiday card!
We signed up for the 45-minute ride, which provided two stops and a really expansive tour of the park. It was the perfect amount of time. Toby was such a gentleman and made our kids feel so comfortable (especially my one daughter who is scared of horses - she ended up petting Leo at the end because Toby made her feel so at ease!) Even my very skeptical husband said the tour was wonderful and well worth the money!
It was not cheesy or touristy at all - it was just classic and perfect. I will definitely do it again one day. We got a winter discount (even though it was March) and $130 (plus a nice, well-deserved tip) for four people was well worth the money, in my opinion.

We were only in NYC for a day and a half and knew we had to see Central Park. This carriage tour was wonderful and our driver was very knowledgeable of the park. She was very honest about the fountain not being the one where Friends was filmed while the pedicabs were blaring the theme song. We took the 65 minute tour and felt like we saw as much of the park as possible. Definitely a must on you NYC trip!

I gave this carriage ride as a gift to our nanny and her fiance and they absolutely LOVED it! First of all the gentleman who runs the business and answers the phone was extremely accomodating with me when I had questions about purchasing a ride as a gift- he had incredible customer service. My nanny and her fiance said "it was a magical experience". They loved that they got to learn the history of the park and city, said the gentleman taking them around was super knowledgeable and provided an incredible experience. I now am going to have to buy a ride for myself and husband after their awesome reviews!

Driver Leo and his horse lucky Sam did a wonderful job showing us around Central Park today. We were very impressed with Leo’s knowledge of the park! And Lucky Sam was a sweetheart with my girls! We hope to be back again for another ride. Thanks again Leo!
Krista Heidar
Our carriage driver, Leo and his horse, Lucky Sam, gave us a really great ride. He had just the right amount of information about the park to make it enjoyable. It was one of the highlights of our visit.

We took a carriage ride through Central Park today with Leo and his horse Toby and it was amazing. Normally I don’t book ahead for something like this and I’m so glad I did. Compared to all of the other horses and carriages, this one was the nicest and most professional of the ones I saw.
Leo the guide so great, very knowledgeable about the history of the city, and very friendly. He even offered to take multiple pictures for us along the way. Highly recommend!

Our driver was very personable and very knowledgeable about Central Park and NYC!!! We loved the experience
Mark Jenkins
The communication from NYC Horse Carriage Rides was amazing. Lots of reminders, which I appreciated! When we arrived, our driver, Henry, greeted us and was just amazing from the beginning. He was very informative about the park and its history. BUT he could honestly be a photographer on the side: the man is a genius when it comes to using your phone to take pics. Just phenomenal!! Extremely professional.
The big black horse was named Lady Liberty, and she was the second-largest horse in the fleet but by FAR the prettiest! Just a wonderful experience all around!
Aubrey Kennedy
Absolutely incredible!! Josh was so funny and knowledgeable of the park. This was my favorite part of our NY trip because it was such a fun and friendly environment!
Lloyd Everard
We had a wonderful tour with our driver Josh and Gracie the horse. We arrived 30 minutes early and rather than make us wait Josh started the tour early. He was knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend this tour.

Wonderful experience. We really enjoyed Henry's stories of the city. He was friendly, knew when we needed to take the sights in, giving us space, and the best part was his photography! He got the best pictures of my family in Central Park. Thank you!
