A must do guided pedicab tour around Central Park

We took the two hour guided pedicab tour around Central Park and it was absolutely amazing. Our guide and driver Johnny was on time to meet us at the pickup point and thankfully waited for us as due to heavy traffic we were late getting there. Johnny was so knowledgeable and very friendly and funny, he stopped at all the places of interest we mentioned and told us lots we didn’t know about the park. Although we were late he still gave us a full 2 hour tour. We would highly recommend this excursion and it was great value for money. A great way to see the park and all its beautiful attractions. 5 star!

Great Way to View Central Park!

This was an excellent way to start our New York getaway. We booked the 1-hour ride, and it was delightful. Our driver was extremely knowledgeable, and we learned a lot about Central Park and its' history. We would highly recommend Experience NYC.
