Loved it!! Love that the driver gave us the option to either have a guided tour of Victoria, or we could choose to just sit and talk. We opted for the tour and I am so glad we did! Our driver was super knowledgeable and provided a lot of information about Victoria. Highly recommend

Our driver was friendly and knowledgeable! We learned a lot about local history. From ages 11 through 71, everyone raved about the carriage ride!!!

Izzy the rider, was super nice and told us the whole story of Victoria. Izzy was patient and lovely, as was Moon her horse. We had a great night tour. I will definitely recommend

The guide showed us so much about Victoria and it’s history. It’s such a good experience. Thank you!

Our delightful tour guide, Hannah, shared fun and fascinating stories about almost everything we passed, at the same time as expertly jockeying an ancient Percheron and carriage through busy streets. Very impressive and a very entertaining ride overall.

Great experience. 45 min trip was awesome. Jack the horse and his beautiful driver (cant remember her name. Sorry) were wonderful
