Best Central Park tour / guide - Our guide Kenny was amazing !!! He was dressed in formal livery wear and a top hat .. He has been guiding for 40 years , and his breath of knowledge was excellent … Ask for him by name and you’ll never regret it …

Fantastic guide!! - You should first request to have Kenneth Mitchell as your guide. He was fantastic!!! So knowledgeable and was a very engaging host. He stopped for lots of picture opportunities and is a great photographer! His horse Lucky was kind enough to pose with us as well. I recommend this duo 100%!

Sunday in Central Park - Adrian shared his knowledge of Central Park and his little anecdotes. Recognizable with his magnificent hat, he was a kind and pleasant guide. The blankets in the carriage were indispensable for us, inhabitants of the tropics 🏝

Good tour, only a few slight issues - We had a good tour, our guide was knoweldgeable, especially about movies filmed in Central Park. The carriage was comfortable. My only issues were that the pickup location was incorrect and it was difficult to locate the operator in the lineup of carriages once we got to the correct location. It also would have been very helpful for the operator to have a speaker so that he would have been easier to hear in the carriage.

Don’t do it - Not worth the money. Should have been 50 min. Was only 30 min. Driver was nice and all. But really only gave facts about movies. Not the park it’s self.

Extremely Disappointed - Unfortunately this tour did not meet our expectations! Our driver never showed up and we were left waiting for over an hour. We tried to contact our driver who did not answer. Finally another driver picked us up after we walked to a different location and took us for a short tour. It was awful! Definitely not we paid for, which was a private tour. I would NOT recommend this company to anyone.

Do not prebook a carriage ride! - We got scammed!! Our ride never showed up. We asked every driver around, NO ONE had a reservation for us and NO ONE did 50 minute rides. There was no phone number or name provided, so we could not make contact. Viator was the only number that texted us and of course we could not call them. We lost $200 and had to pay for a 20 minute ride on site. I was provided a bar code from Viator and every driver said we do not scan those.
