This was well worth the money. 2 hours ride around Central Park to see a lot of filming locations. Would not have been able to see all walking around.
Our drivers were excellent.

We had a wonderful experience with Leo! He was very knowledgeable and made the tour so much fun! The weather was cold & icy but he made sure we were bundled up and reminded us to watch our step at all of the icy locations. Definitely a 5 star tour and if you're lucky enough to end up with Leo, it's more like a 10 star!
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled Leo could make your tour fun and memorable, even in the cold and icy conditions. It’s wonderful to hear you felt well cared for and enjoyed the experience so much!

Johnny Cash and Micheal Jackson were great and yes I know that’s not their real names. Both were very knowledgeable and gave us plenty of time to stop and explore.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you for your review! We’re delighted that “Johnny Cash” and “Michael Jackson” made your tour enjoyable and informative. It’s great to hear you had plenty of time to explore and take in all the sights, sounds like a fun experience!

Great service, on time, very helpful. And they had a nice warm blanket. I had my 91 year old mom with me and our driver took great care of her.
Response from Host, Dec 2025

Stephen_C, Dec 2025
Got to see Times Square. Guide explained the stops and passing bys very well. On our stops, he took pictures of us so we both could be in the pictures. Supplied a blanket since it was cold. His pedicab was decorated for Christmas. Loved that. He was on time and found us easily. Pretty sure his name was Edward. He was Russian, his English was great. Me and the wife were forgetful of his name.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re so glad to hear that Edward made your Central Park pedicab tour special with his helpfulness, thoughtful touches, and festive decorations. It’s great to know you enjoyed the stops, photos, and overall experience. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for another memorable ride!
Lisa_F, Dec 2025
Johnny was fantastic - informative and fun. My 4 star rating was due to the weather we only got a 38 minute tour rather than the full hour. It was a very expensive 35 min ride for $120 plus tip.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you so much for joining us and for sharing your thoughts. We’re delighted to hear that Johnny made the experience enjoyable, even with the unexpected weather cutting things short. We understand how the shortened tour affected the value for you, and we truly appreciate your honesty. We hope we’ll have the chance to welcome you back for the full experience next time under sunnier skies.
Denise_B, Nov 2025
I 100% recommend this tour if you are crunched for time and want to see and learn about this section of Central Park. Our tour guide, Johnny, was absolutely fabulous! He had all kinds of history about the areas we traveled through. He had pictures from the movies that were filmed in the areas and landmarks we visited. It was a great tour. The only negative that we had was that we didn’t book the two hour tour instead of the one hour! If you have the chance, book this tour, and ask for Johnny
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed exploring Central Park and seeing the film spots with Johnny. We agree, his knowledge and enthusiasm really make the tour special. We hope you get a chance to try the longer tour next time and see even more of the park!

Unfortunately our driver never came, a different driver came for another booking and when I told him how long I had been waiting and how late our driver was, he called his boss. They said they couldn't find my booking at first but after going through a lot of information and me supplying my booking reference they finally found it and said because I booked so long in advance and my booking was made in 2024 for a 2025 date, my booking dropped from their system!!! So if the other driver hadn't been so kind to help us, we would have been left there and missed out... And likely been unable to get a refund because when I messaged through viator they said they couldn't find my booking, even though I was contacting them through my booking!
The driver who made the calls ended up taking us for our tour and he was very professional and friendly. He gave us the 2hrs we had paid for even though we had lost about an hour waiting for our original driver and proving we had a booking.
The tour itself was great but I do have a suggestion that they invest in a microphone for the driver and either put speakers in the back where passengers sit or give passengers headphones to hear the drivers. Anytime he wanted to tell us anything he had to turn right around and shout, it was hard to hear him and the person sitting in the other seat couldn't hear him because he was facing the other direction. So even though he had a lot of stuff to say, we missed a lot of it due to this.
I'm giving it a low rating because of the stress it caused and the fact that you shouldn't lose bookings just because a new year has started (we visited in May 2025 and booked over 6 months in advance so we wouldn't miss out)
