Our group was 4 women celebrating my sister’s birthday. We had a wonderful time! Perfect weather and a fun driver (Mario). The horse, 3 Socks, was very sweet. Mario was on time, had great historical info about NYC and Central Park and stopped to take good pics. The champagne was in red solo cups but we enjoyed the whole experience— red solo cups and all. Ask for Mario! He’s a great driver!
Very Disappointing Experience Despite Refund- PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!! We had booked a horse and carriage ride through Central Park with Top Hat to celebrate my 70th birthday with my sons, which was meant to be a special and memorable occasion. Unfortunately, the carriage never showed up for our scheduled booking at the pre arranged Tripadvisor specified meeting location (we were there early and waited 1hr). PLEASE BE AWARE- there is no company rep or Top Hat desk / physical meeting point and nobody at that location knew anything about Top Hat as a company. In the end I asked for a refund and while I do appreciate that a full refund was given promptly, it didn’t make up for the disappointment of the experience itself. This was a one-time celebration, and having it fall through with no ride was extremely upsetting. In fairness, Top Hat offered another ride post refund request but timings didn’t work given our itinerary (and tbh no guarantee that it wouldn’t just happen again). I understand that issues can happen, but better communication / contingency planning and an official meeting location/check in point with allocated rep would have gone a long way(this was supposed to be a VIP ride after all and for the price I paid for the experience, I would have expected VIP service). Sadly, the missed experience overshadowed what should have been a joyful milestone. In summary, and fair warning to all- be VERY careful and think very hard before pre booking with Top Hat!! With all aforementioned issues, I would hate for your trip to be tainted like my experience. If you still want to take a horse and carriage ride, there are plenty of cash only vendors ready to take your money and provide that trip (it just may not live up to that dainty and picturesque VIP experience you have in your mind or that I hoped Top Hat would have provided).
Dear Karen McCorrie, We are so sorry to hear your 70th birthday celebration in Central Park didn't go as planned with Top Hat NY. We apologize for the mix-up with the reservation time - it seems there was confusion between 5:15pm and 7:15pm. We understand how disappointing it is to miss an experience you were looking forward to, especially on a special occasion like a 70th birthday. The lack of a clear meeting point and communication didn't meet our standards, and for that, we apologize. We'd like to make it right with a complimentary horse carriage ride on us, for you and your family. Please DM us or call us directly to schedule it at a time that works for you. Sincerely, Top Hat NY Team
This was part of our 20th wedding anniversary trip to NYC, and Mario made the champagne horse-drawn carriage BEYOND MEMORABLE! :-D He was very charismatic and has so much knowledge about the park and the surrounding neighborhoods. He also has a knack for taking great photos - and knows the BEST spots! The champagne was delightful, too! The hubs and I would book this tour again (even if we weren't celebrating a special occasion...it was that magnificent)!
We paid for the champagne tour because 3 years ago we did the same tour and had a magical experience in Cebtral Park following our anniversary dinner. This year, was disappointing. The attention to detail was lacking. We were shown a bottle of warm champagne and two red solo cups on the seat in front of us. The first time the driver was super attentive, opened the champagne, poured it into plastic champagne cups, and placed the bottle in an ice bucket. We ended up not opening the champagne because warm champagne is not worth drinking. We ended up taking the champagne home, but I could have purchased a bottle of champagne for much less on my own to take home. The idea was to enjoy it on the tour. I will think twice before I book another carriage tour in Central Park.
Very nice scenery and great driver. He was very accommodating because we were late to the pick up point. Very resourceful for us.
Awesome Carriage ride Omer was driver the BEST!! Ever Champagne ride thru park 👍 Very informative very thoughtful the best
Xmas present for my son and daughter in law and they both enjoyed it. Maybe champagne could have been better
Interesting facts given about the park and surrounding area. Had a very nice time.got to get out and do a little site seeing at one point.
