5.00John our driver was very knowledgeable of the park. Magnolia was a lovely well behaved horse and it was good to know that she is taken good care of. The trip was shortened slightly as it became too hot for the horse but we didn’t mind at all. Really pleased they think about the horse’s welfare.
Fantastic guide and experience

5.00We had such an enjoyable ride with our driver Adam and our horse Jersey. Adam was very nice and fantastic about contacting us to let us know exactly where to meet him. He even sent a picture of the carriage so we would know which was his. He was very knowledgeable about the park, answered all our questions, stopped and took pictures of us as a family, and let our girls feed Jersey some carrots. It was a very peaceful and pleasant experience. I would recommend it if you don’t have time to walk around Central Park. We hit all the highlights we were wanting to see.
