Rating 5, 0 (6) It provided us with a great tour guide experience in addition to taking incredible photos and videos. Fall foliage is still in its final stages in Central Park and the longer carriage ride gave us the opportunity to see it at a pleasant, leisurely pace. If you're a tourist visiting New York, consider NOT participating in horse carriage rides in Central Park. Horse-drawn carriages were New York City's first mode of transportation and are one of the few remaining historic elements of New York City York.
I contacted Matt to order chocolate-covered roses and strawberries for the trip and also a photographer to commemorate the experience. Explore the park's rich history, iconic filming locations, and major sights while driving in comfort, guided by an expert driver. We took a night tour with an Irish gentleman named John and enjoyed a wonderful trip through Central Park. Carriage rides through Central Park are amazing, a great way to see the park and its surroundings.
You have to do it, it's worth it, but bring cash and pay the driver directly. Kadir pointed out the key places in the park and left us a list of movies that were filmed in and around the park. The bouquet of flowers was beautiful and the photographer was top notch and I received the photos a few hours into my trip. From booking it online to enjoying the ride, VIP Central Park Carriage Tours had excellent service.
