Central Park Ride

I took a carriage ride with my 10 year old daughter, my mother, and my mother in law, and we had a wonderful time! Our guide’s name was Honor, and the horse was named Trigger. Honor did an excellent job communicating with me before the ride and was very knowledgeable and friendly throughout our ride. He offered us blankets and stopped a couple times to take pictures. We enjoyed sitting back and enjoying the park, and I would definitely recommend this service.

Viator did not share reservation with Carriage company

Viator did not share my reservation with the provider. Viator did not respond to my messages. I did reach out to the provider and they did accommodate our ride late.

Great Experience

Great communication from Tyson our driver with clear instructions. We booked two carriages as a party of 5 travelling for special birthdays. Only one carriage arrived, Tyson sorted this with no fuss, however the carriage was not the same standard, but the driver was polite and knowledgeable. Asked to ride side by side, unable to for most of the journey. More stopping time required to capture photos of the famous landmarks as too quick and we missed some opportunities. Tyson and our other driver very accommodating with any photos when stopping and took their time and did not rush us. Loved hearing about all the famous landmarks however at times struggled to hear with the language/ accent. Great experience for my sisters and besties special birthdays, Tyson very kind and helpful, just needed more time to take photos.

Operator response

It’s wonderful that you enjoyed learning about the famous landmarks and that the experience contributed to making your sisters' and besties' special birthdays memorable.
