Great tour of Central Park and excellent tour guide.

Business and drivers professional from the starf. Another driver stopped, even with passengers, while we were waiting ensuring we were picked up before continuing on the ride he had. Toured the entire park. Took the 2-hour tour with Noah. He provided us with important information and pointed out all of the points of interest. He answered questions about the park and New York in general. Highly recommend this company and you are fortunate if Noah is your driver.

Wonderful tour guides

We had a wonderful 2 hour pedi ride. Abdul was wonderful! It was so nice being driven around in the shade and not having to walk.

Great option for Central Park

A good tour of the main areas of the park, with a bit of history thrown in. Meant I didn’t wander aimlessly in the heat, definitely recommended.
