We loved this trip only bad thing was I only booked a hour and wish I had booked longer. I've done a horse and carriage ride but this was a 100 times better. The gentleman that took us out was amazing sorry I've forgotten his name but he dresses as an elf and had us laughing all the way around filling us full of information about the park. He could answer all our questions and made this the best trip we took in New York. The pedicab was clean and comfortable. If you are going to New York this should be top of your list for things to do. If you can take the longer trip you won't be disappointed. If not the hour trip is full of interesting information, great photo stops and loads of fun.
You have to see Central Park by pedicab ! Ask for Vitali...he's terrific! He has a strong British accent which at times was somewhat hard to understand, but we just asked him to repeat his comment and he was so gracious. He gave us such special attention and with my brother, who uses a cane, he was so patient and kind. To our total surprise, he even drove us to a nearby hamburger venue so we did not have to walk. He also gave us explicit directions back to the subway entrance because it was getting dark. We did the 2 hour tour and it was the best choice. Take a light jacket if you go in the fall, because when the sun goes down or behind a cloud, it gets very cold. I had no idea that Central Park was so HUGE. We absolutely loved this tour!
