A Must-Do Event

elaine_t, Nov 2023
We only scheduled for 1 hour tour, however afterwards, we regretted not scheduling for 2 hours. There were 4 of us so we had 2 pedicabs and both of our guides were so nice and so awesome!

Always learning new things!

I can not say enough about Moussa and how great he was!!! He was so kind and informative and SO HELPFUL with taking our photos and making sure we didn’t miss anything on this tour! I CANNOT say enough good things about him! HIGHLY RECOMMEND

The way to Tour Central Park!

Lynn_G, Jun 2023
Moussa was an amazing guide! We didn’t expect all the photos he took along the tour of us! We loved it - so much information and the we saw all of Central Park - and if we didn’t it sure felt that way!

So much fun

Brittany_B, Apr 2023
Our guide Bill was awesome! It was my myself, husband and two sons (10, 4) who have never been to NY. Jumping in the pedicab and driving down the street to Central Park was fun! Once we got into Central Park it was nice to have Bill give us all of the historical facts about certain landmarks. He also took family photos for us. Overall great experience I recommend to anyone visiting.

Central park tour

Makala_N, Dec 2022
My grandmother and I wanted to see Central park but decided doing a guided tour would be the best option with minimal walking. Our tour guide, Chris, knew so much about the park and the city itself. Chris played music as we strolled through and answered any and all questions we may have had. Thank you again for a great tour!

Benny Was Great! Highly Recommend

Nick_W, Nov 2022
Benny did an outstanding job showing us around & giving us some history of Central Park. We’ve been to NYC numerous times but has never seen as much of the park as we did on this tour. Highly recommend!!

A perfect afternoon!

Patrick_H, Oct 2022
Moussa and his team were amazing. They filled us with a ton of history and facts about Central Park and the surrounding area. The entire tour from start to finish was a great balance of riding and stopping to take amazing photos. I would HIGHLY recommend booking this company. They will treat you right and it's worth every penny.

2 hour tour WORTH IT! Do not miss.

Nicole_M, Oct 2022
This was an amazing experience. Moussa was our tour guide, and I would highly recommend. He was fantastic.

Informative and wonderful

Shari_B, Jun 2022

Absolute Great Experience

Chris_Y, May 2022
Bill was great tour guide. Took his time and pointed out so many significant sites along the way. He took tons of pictures for us at iconic places. We really enjoyed the tour, so fun!

Showing my cousin how BIG and beautiful Central Park is! She had a minor foot injury and got to experience Central Park.

Wow

Dina_Z, Jan 2022
Frankie our guide was amazing! He made sure we were comfortable and told us everything about Central Park.

Great ride

david_f, Dec 2021
Went there a few minutes early. Pedicab driver was cleaning the cart. He took us all over Central Park that we wanted to see. He took several photos of us and explained the stuff we were seeing (especially the movie spots). I felt much more comfortable using them than the other ones that are independent.

Very nice guide

Sreekanth_D, Dec 2021
Very courteous guide. He had good knowledge about the park. He explained us about the skyline buildings around the park and also was very respectful

Awesome!!!

David_C, Dec 2021
Good way to use our time in New York! We recommend to all persons that visit New York. We saw all the points of interest in Central Park and took spectacular photos.

Fun way to see Central Park

Carol_D, Nov 2021
This was a fun tour and a great way to see more of Central Park. We happened to be staying at the hotel next to the meeting place so that was perfect. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed our two hours with him. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Natih_S, Oct 2021
We enjoyed riding on the pedicab. Our tour guide was great, explained the central park well. He was about 10mins late but it wasn’t s big deal for us. Just glad we didn’t have to walk all those miles!

Frankie Legs was...

Lindsay_T, Oct 2021
Frankie Legs was incredible! Well worth it to see more of the park in a shorter time. Nice "hop offs".

Worth it, but no restroom at Fancy Apple.

Rebecca_B, Oct 2021
Our guide, Bill, was personable and knowledgeable. The 2 hour ride gave us a chance to see Central Park. Our creaky joints never would have allowed it had we tried to walk it. Only down side to the experience is that the storefront, where the ride begins, did not have a restroom. I hoped that something would be have been available for paying customers.

Frankie Legg - Best Pedicab Operator!

Stephen_H, Oct 2021
Frankie Legg is a crate pedicab operator for Grand Central he gave us an incredible tour full of information and background history

Take the “history” with a grain of salt.

John_C, Sep 2021
Our guide was very nice, but difficult to understand and gave false information about NYC. He believed the English originally settled Manhattan, not the Dutch. Still a pedicab ride is the best way to see the park.

A ride in the park with Bill.

Andrew_B, Sep 2021
Lots of laughs, good stories and pictures of all the famous spots in Central Park. Bill was full of anecdotes and brought us to a number of great photo ops.

Great way to tour Central Park

Ken C, Oct 2019
Our guide was Johnny. It was pouring rain and he took us anyway. Nice and dry inside the pedicab while Johnny drove outside in the rain. Excellent knowledge of the park and he’s and iPhone camera master.

Fantastic Tour!

Ruth_S, Jul 2019
