Horse-Drawn Carriage Rides
in Central Park

59th Street Central Park South
(between 5th & 6th Avenues,
across from The Plaza Hotel)
"Hansom Cab" Rides
Give your weary feet a rest and take a romantic Horse & Buggy ride
through Central Park one of
the most popular ways to see the most famous park in the world.
We've enjoyed several carriage rides over the years,
usually
during the Spring and Fall months, when the weather is more temperate.
Most of these beautiful horses
are born and bred in Amish
Country, PA.

Outside Central Park
Carriage rides are usually not permitted outside Central Park,
however, it's up to the individual carriage drivers to make exceptions.
We've seen carriages in the Theater District and
Times Square at night, so it's worth asking, but don't count on it.

Carriage Ride Hours
Sun-Thu 11am-midnight,
Fri-Sat 11am-1am
NOTE: No reservations are necessary.
Year-Round Rides
Hansom Cab Rides are available year-round although fewer carriages
run during January
(when it's cold) and August (when it's sizzling outside).
Rule of thumb is if it's "one degree above
90" or "one degree below 20", they
don't operate. FYI,
during the chilly winter months, blankets are available.
Where to Find the Carriages
The carriages can be found lined
up along Central Park South at
59th Street (between 5th & 6th Avenues), at the southern end of Central
Park, across from the Plaza Hotel.
Carriage Ride Policies
Carriages seat up to 4 people per ride. Pets are allowed. Gift Certificates
are also available.
Carriage Ride Prices
Rides are approximately $35 for
a 20-minute ride and $85 for a one-hour tour through
Central Park. Longer rides are negotiable. Prices may vary (and are subject
to change), so be sure to ask prior to boarding
the carriage.
