Great tour and great workout! They took lots of pictures of us and we made quite a few stops to really admire some of the Central Park fixtures. Angela was our tour guide. She was very understanding with maintaining a good pace for us and was very energetic. Would recommend for all fitness levels!

I had a blast on this running tour of Central Park. It was so interesting to learn things I didn't know about the park and we saw a wide range of sights. I was nervous about a running tour, but the guides were super chill and accommodated every speed and ability. Ben and Mike were fantastic. Highly recommend!

What a great way to start your day with an educational and enjoyable run through Central Park. Ben and Mike do a nice job of talking about the park and so many of its highlights. Even if you live here, I guarantee you will learn things about the Park you didn’t know. And dogs can be off leash before 9:00 in the Park. So having all the dogs running around was an unexpected bonus. Thanks for the fun time.
