★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 1,074 reviews · 50 minutes (approx.) Our pick

Take a private horse-drawn carriage through Central Park for about 50 minutes. Your driver points out Wollman Rink, Bethesda Fountain, Cherry Hill, Strawberry Fields, and movie locations, with photo stops and carrots for the horse. Guides such as Matt and Oscar are praised for their park stories. Blankets are provided, but dress warmly.

“Our driver seemed rushed. He asked us to come early. It was not a problem, so we came early. We started our ride and about half way into the ride he pulled over and said “You can take pictures here. You have 5 minutes”. There were no other stops. When we resumed the ride, we were passing other carriages and the other drivers were glaring at us. When we ended the ride, the next booking was standing there waiting. We asked for one more photo and the driver obliged. There were no carrots for the horse as advertised. Again, it all seemed very rushed. The carriage was nice and our…”

Let a private guide such as Luke, Melissa, Kobe, Shayne, or Charlie handle Maui’s winding Road to Hana while you choose the pace. Expect waterfalls, taro fields, black-sand beaches, Hana town, local food stops, and cultural stories in an air-conditioned SUV. The route can adapt to weather, mobility, and your group’s interests.

“This tour was not what we expected or what was described. It stated that snacks, water and soda were included. Not once were we offered any of these items. It rained the majority of the day. We understand that we cannot control the weather. However, our tour guide seemed to use the rain as an excuse to skip most of the stops on the tour. We did not stop at the Arboretum, Ke'anae Point, Pua'a Ka'a State Park, Hana Gold Cacoa Plantation, or Koki Beach. The itinerary stated shopping and exploring in Hana. We only ate lunch there. There was not an option to stop and see any waterfalls up…”
