Couldn’t see near as good since we did it at night, but the guide was great and the personal carriage was much better than the large horse drawn carriages with 20 people. 5 star

Relaxed taking in it charm of the manicured park as nature and wildlife was shown the peacocks were quite interesting the beautiful flowers I had a genuinely kind young lady share some of the details. As I was thinking, stepping in the past, as the future move so forward, it was nice to relax and be cared for and learn.

Checking into the event was easy. Questions prior to the event were addressed and answered in a timely manner. We met our horse, MacIntosh and driver Nakita…..they were a great match!! The carriage was a bit tight for a party of 5, but we managed. Nakita was a local and very knowledgeable about the area. I would highly recommend the tour!!!

The cart was so dirty, and the front desk staff was so rude. I had to argue to get one of their only cart. But the woman who took us was nice. But I would recommend everyone to go with tally ho tours as there hoarse carriage is so beautiful
