Very Informative! - Our tour guide was knowledgeable. The horses were friendly. It was raining and chilly but were given blankets. The coach stopped a few times so we had plenty of picture opportunities as well as being able to pet the horses, Chief & Roy. 10/10!

A stunning park - Stanley Park is a beautiful park in Vancouver. It is huge, so walking all of it may be tricky. If you can afford to, the Horse Drawn tour is a treat. Gentle giant horses pull your trolley around and you have a wonderful guide to tell you all about it. Ours was Carolyn and she did a fabulous job. The views along the track are amazing and you stop off at the Totel Poles to take a closer look. Visit the park via public bus if you don't have a car or can't afford the Hop on/off bus tour.

Great first stop at Stanley Park for newcomers particularly. - Great way to get a feel for the Park & its history in a very special way. Hal was fabulous with the horse team and as a guide. Lots of history shared. Stop briefly at totem poles.

Amazing Overall Experience - It was an amazing experience! The tour guides were both informative and entertaining, and Bud and Bill, the little horses, were fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the insights shared along the way. The added touch of blankets made the experience even more thoughtful. Overall, a 10/10 experience that I highly recommend!

Awesome - Great way to see some areas of the park. Our tour guide did a great job. She also knew how to control the horses. A few times the two horses wanted to gallop, but our tour guide was in control

Good - The ride was fun, the guide was informative and fun, loved hearing about the history and the horses. Wish we had more time at the totems, 7 minutes was not enough to visit the totems and the gift shop for hot chocolate.

A Cozy and Informative Way to See Stanley Park on a Rainy Day - Despite the rain, our visit to Stanley Park was a treat, thanks to the one-hour guided tour with the horse-drawn carriage. With a roof overhead and cozy blankets, we stayed warm and dry the whole time. Our guide was fantastic – full of insights about the park and Vancouver’s history, and the horses’ story added an extra charm to the experience. We stopped at the Totem poles, with time to get off for photos, which was a nice touch. At $60 per person, it felt like good value for a unique, informative, and scenic tour. By the time we wrapped up, the rain had cleared, making it a lovely way to explore Stanley Park’s western end. Highly recommend, especially if you’re looking for something relaxed and memorable.
