Horse Drawn Carriage NYC: Central Park Private Tours

View From Sheep Meadow

A horse drawn carriage NYC is the old-fashioned spelling of the same product as a horse carriage: animals in harness, wheels, coachman. Central Park Carriages Official runs that vehicle as a private Central Park tour, not as a novelty ride down Broadway.

What “horse drawn” guarantees

It guarantees a horse team, not a fake motor carriage. It does not guarantee Bow Bridge unless you booked a package that lists it. Use the 45 Min Elite Best Deal Tour or 1 Hour Park and City Tour for the fuller drawn-carriage circuit. Use the Christmas carriage tour when the draw is holiday lights.
