My family and I had a wonderful time on the horse and carriage ride through Central Park. Niko was very informative and showed us some landmarks throughout our ride. I highly recommend it.

We arrived early, but that wasn’t a problem as our ride soon turned up. It was a nice leisurely way to see the park or should I say part of the park as it is so large. The guide was great telling us about certain things like landmarks and things like that. We stopped about five times to get out and take photos at iconic locations. The views were fantastic as there were no leaves on the trees and it was very cold but did supply us with a blanket as well.

The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. He stopped for quick photo opportunities and took the photos for us on my mobile. The activity was on time and was enjoyable. Our horse Stella was very sweet and well- behaved. Definitely recommend this activity. A great way to see Central Park.
