“Central Park Rickshaw Tour a great way to see an iconic attraction”

My daughter and I visited New York City for the second time in early August. On our last day before leaving we took the bicycle rickshaw tour through Central Park. Our guide Teddy was very knowledgeable about the park, activities in the park, the history of the park and the best sites to see. It was great to see all of the places that I had only seen before in the movies. It was a very warm day too and if I had been walking I might of seen only one or two sites.
Bethesda Terrace and the fountain of the Angel of Water was really beautiful and especially cool to see. The tunnel under the road and into the Mall was beautiful - tiled ceiling and walls and a musical performance going on. I highly recommend this tour if you want to see the daily life of New Yorkers.

Booked via centralparktours.net. Most reasonable, and comprehensive tour I could find online . Turned out to be a v memorable experience with my partner, will definitely do it again.

Ticks all boxes for a good guide - friendly and patient (to take pictures), and very flexible and accomodating to meet customers demands.

“Very professional & personable tour guides!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 23, 2010

I recently booked two Rickshaw tours for myself & family friends. Having lived in NYC , I was very skeptical about taking a tour. However, Teodor from CPT called us a day in advance to confirm our reservations and gave clear instructions on where to meet to begin our tour. Teodor and George were our guides and they were both very polite, professional and informative. They were also flexible about stopping places so that my guests could take pictures and walk through various parts of the park, while other tours are not. I was prepared for a very perfunctory experience but was pleasantly surprised by how personable, witty and well-versed our guides were. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting NYC and for those who think they have seen it all!

“Best way to see Central Park!”

Anytime I go visit NYC from Boston, I always make a point of visiting Central Park. I love the sights and sounds as well as the taste of nature in an otherwise concrete jungle. While I usually like to walk, I thought I would give one of the "rickshaw" tours a shot since my feet were aching. Fortunately, I ended up picking a great tour guide to pedal me around the park for an hour or so. He (Teo?) was extremely personable and entertaining. The short time we spent together was filled with lots of fun facts about Central Park and other things to do/see in NYC. If you ever have the opportunity, then I highly recommend you check out Central Park Tours!

“A great way to see the highlights in Central Park”

Our guide, Martin was friendly and informative. We were too tired to walk and didn't have much time so this was a great way to see some of it. Very fun!
