WHAT OUR CARRIAGE RIDES IN CENTRAL PARK ARE LIKE!

Bernard is my NBF

Ok so it’s not cheap, cost us $140 for 40 mins but our guide was good. He could have been telling us anything I suppose but he was very convincing and quite charming. Drove us all round the park and stopped for photo shot. The weather was cold but lovely blue sky, we were well rugged up! We did ask after the welfare of our horse Bernard and was given all the details on allowed working hours and days and also holidays. He looked very fit and well looked after

Well worth it - peace in the middle of NYC

We took an evening tour with an Irish gentleman named John and had a wonderful trip around Central Park. Was a truly romantic start to our festive break. Thoroughly recommend Central Park Carriage Rides - we made an advance booking before we left the UK through American Express Travel. This company made every effort to communicate with us to agree pick-up times etc and make sure we had contact details. Very professional outfit.

Romantic and informative

We had a wonderful ride around Central Park with our driver Kadir and his trusty horse Ted. Kadir pointed out key places in the park and left us with a list of movies that were filmed in and around the park. It was a wonderful way to see the park and learn about the area.
