Park and The City Reservations Central Park
Take in the sights and sounds of New York City in a carriage ride in Central Park and beyond. You’ll be driven around in the comfort of your own carriage, passing the world by at a leisurely pace, seeing all that the park has to offer.
But it doesn’t stop there.
Once you’ve exhausted the park, your NYC horse and carriage will leave the park and head southwards on the world famous 5th Avenue. You’ve seen it in the movies, now you can experience it in your own life.
The circular tour lasts for up to an hour (depending on traffic) and takes in some of the most well-known sights in New York. Perhaps you know the Wolmann ice skating rink – not necessarily by name, but you will know it when you see it. It’s been featured in movies like Home Alone 2, Serendipity, Love Story, Night at the Museum, Limitless, and more besides.
You see the carousel featured in Face/Off (John Travolta not included), Sheep Meadow (famed for protests, rallies, and concerts in the 1960s), Literary Walk with its statues of famous writers, and Chess & Checkers House (as seen in Independence Day).
You’ll also pass by the Central Park Dairy, Zoo, and the Plaza Hotel. As you head into the city, you’ll see the Tiffany store, Trump Tower, and St Patrick’s Cathedral. Look out for Sax Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Plaza and ice skating (Home Alone 2 again and Elf), Magnolia Bakery, and Radio City Music Hall.
Round it all off with a view of the LOVE sculpture, and you’ll have had one of the greatest tours in New York – our Central Park carriage rides don’t have to just stay in the park!
We’d enjoy showing you around the city we call home, and you’ll find that this tour is available Monday through Saturday starting from 8:30pm each day. On Sundays the tours start at 6:30pm. Book Park & City Reservations online to make sure you get the chance to experience the city that never sleeps from the comfort of a horse and carriage.
