The Experience
Some rides feel like gifts.
Your carriage, yours alone — no strangers, no sharing. Just your group and the glow of the lights for forty unhurried minutes.
Rockefeller Center. The Plaza. Central Park at dusk. The route where the city feels its most romantic.
Cashmere blankets, carriage bells in the quiet. A private ride designed for the cold and the magic.

"I booked the Proposal Ride for my girlfriend — she said YES! The team was incredible in coordinating the perfect surprise at Bow Bridge. Every single detail was perfect. Couldn't recommend this more."
