We spend our 10th anniversary in New Your City. We wanted to do some memorable things one of which was a Horse Carriage ride in Central Park. Our driver Troy was fabulous, very knowledgeable and took some amazing pictures of us that we will cherish. Troy's house was Rosie, very sweet horse. They are several movies that have been filmed In Central Park and Troy told us about all of them. He was actually in a movie that was filmed in Central Park. Great memories were made.

Matt was a wonderful guide on the carriage. He drove safely with the horse and was sweet to the horse and he also stopped and let us see different landmarks and he was very knowledgeable in explaining lots of stuff to us that we didn’t know. I would recommend him personally to anyone! This is a fun little thing to do, to get to know Central Park in New York City.

This was such a lovely thing to do. We did it on Christmas Day but any day would be lovely. The city is so busy and buzzing, this feels so relaxed and tranquil. A completely different vibe to the rest of the city. Highly recommend. Our guide lived his horses so much and told us how they were kept and looked after aswell as pointing out all the sights. Our children aged 12 and 20 loved it too. Highly recommend.

Our guide was so entertaining & gave lots of information about Central Park & its surroundings. I wish we could have covered more areas of the park though.
