2.00was disappointed that we paid so much for the Central Park tour but didn’t get the full experience due to the marathon the day before. It would have been helpful if the operator had informed us ahead of time about the route changes or limitations. We were really looking forward to seeing the full park, and better communication would have made a big difference.
But I would make sure you're not paying for the flowers and the candy

5.00Just as promised—we loved the guide Ahmet and his horse, Grace. Had a delightful ride with warm blankets in the morning. Stops were great and driver was patient to allow us a few extra minutes at Strawberry Fields/Imagine mosaic as I requested. Highly recommend this experience vs a pedicab!
