This experience was amazing. I can’t thank Gareth the driver for a great trip around Central Park. He was full of information and really friendly. Thank you.

I had a super great ride in Central Park. I would go again and stay with the long ride.

The carriage ride through Central Park was lovely. A great way to relax, see the sights, and enjoy a few moments to be able to look around without being in the crush of people. It was a little difficult to locate the correct corner to secure our ride, however, once there, the staff were very kind and helpful. Our driver wasn't very talkative, but provided a few tidbits about the Central Park area. Maybe he was allowing us to experience the sights without a lot of distraction. We took the 45 minute ride. It was the perfect way to see most of Central Park.

Very friendly and informative guide with his horse Julio dressed with this Santa hat for the festive period._br/_ Well organised with plenty carriages arriving and a very short wait time.

There is no one there when you arrive to direct you where to go. No one knew anything about the voucher from viator. They all told us we had to purchase from them in cash. We finally got someone to take us after wondering around the place, the ride was OK at best, our guide didn't speak good English, could not understand a word he said. We didn't get to stop for pictures, he seemed annoyed that we were even riding with him. Total let down for all the money paid for the ride. The blanket they had was dirty, do yourself a favor and stick to the main carriage ride companies, not even sure of the name of the one we took. He dropped us off in the middle of a busy street and picked up 2 people from those taxi bikes, not even getting the full time that we paid for, then got upset we didn't tip him.

The carriage ride was pleasant and the guide was ok, he had a foreign accent and was a little hard for us to understand and to hear him. I do recommend this tour, a must do in NYC.

Unorganied! Although I purchased tickets online, we still had to wait over an hour for a carriage. There were 3 lines- purchased tickets and need to purchase tickets. There were literally hundreds of people in all the lines. No benefit to purchasing ahead of time.

A beautiful park on a wonderful snowy winter day. However, no comments from our driver, no interesting facts on Central Park, nothing to add to what was a nice carriage ride. Would look at other companies to ride with on our next trip to NYC.

A delightful way to be introduced to Central Park. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable about the Park and surrounding architectural landmarks. The staff was cheerful and friendly, volunteering to take pictures for us that actually were very nicely done. The Park is lovely and inspiring. Wonderful to see people relaxing and enjoying this treasured gift to the city of NY.

The tour was described as a ride of 45 minutes with blanket .The tour only lasted 30 min and no blanket was offered ..and it was a chilly afternoon on thanksgiving. The guide was friendly and pointed out certain land marks and buildings. Enjoyed the experience but felt disappointed that it was over very quickly for the price paid .

Great trip, very friendly driver. Recommend a daytime trip instead of night as less to see at night. Overall still great.

The carriage ride itself was great with a great driver who went out of his way to stop and take picture of us and point out landmarks. However, we discovered after we got there that if we had purchased the ride through the driver we would have paid significantly less. Viator charged us 149 for a 40 minute ride but if we had purchased from the driver at the park the cost would only have been 75. I was very disappointed and next time will wait until the day of our trip and save over half on the cost and not use Viator for future events.

We had booked a 40/50 min ride around Central Park and were lucky enough to get Alex and Oscar the horse to take us on what proved to be an informative trip with Alex providing numerous snippets of information on the surroundings buildings and who had lived or did live there and the places within the park where various filmakers had used parts of the park. He was attentive amusing and full of enthusiasm and made the whole experience wonderful.

This tour was really fun and our tour guide Gareth and his house F. Scott were great. The 50 minute tour allowed time see all the highlights of Central park and Gareth did a great job sharing the history and stories about Central Park.

The NYC carriage ride was planned as a birthday gift. When we arrived we were told that half the tour would now be in the city streets due to the NYC marathon. They had blockades in major parts of the park. We specifically wanted to see Strawberry fields but all we could do was get a glimpse of it as we exited the park. Needless to say we were disappointed. When booking your event do some research to see what is happening in the area the day you plan on visiting.

Guide was very hard to understand which hindered the nice ride.
