Traveler reviews
A very enjoyable experience!
A lovely experience & the horses were so well looked after and monitored by the Central Park ranger if the weather gets to hot or cold. We had a lovely guide who had been doing this for over 40 years and his love of the park and history were excellent, would definitely recommend if you want to see a lot of the park in a short time. A visit to The Tavern on the Green is a must for a nice glass of fizz, cocktail or light lunch at the end , as this is one of the drop off points, also if you want a real treat you could go to the boathouse in Central Park the food is excellent, you won’t be disappointed!
Fantastic carriage in Central Park
Josh the driver was entertaining and informative. Venus, the horse, appeared well cared for and healthy and was so pretty. Instructions to find the carriages were very helpful
Didn’t happen
The trip was cancelled understandably. However We were notified by a third person having arrived to meet the carriage. No one has contacted us. No messages received no apology and the help desk telephone no goes to answer phone
Serious Animal Welfare Concerns
Very sad to see horses being used for carriage rides in the city. I visited during the time when a horse died, and sadly it was not the first one. In hot weather and busy streets, I do not think this is fair for the horses. I would not support this attraction.
Horse carriage ride
The horse carriage ride did not show up and I did not receive a notice that it was canceled until several hours after the event was to take place.
