Pedicab tour Central Park NY

Peter_G, Apr 2024

Had our tour with Jonny Cash... absolutely brilliant. My suggestion if you are going to do a Pedicab tour, book it here. Do not pay on the day to one of the guys at the park, they charge around $8 a minute. Jonny was an excellent tour guide, cannot recommend him highly enough. He took us to all the film and celebrity sights, plenty of time for photos. With Jonny loads of laughs guaranteed.

Great tour

Marcy_F, Mar 2024

Johnnie was the best!! We was so knowledgeable and added his own style of humor. I would do it again!!

Just one correction!

joy_B, Mar 2024

MOSTLY great information! We were thankful for the heavy blanket provided because it was very windy and cold! Johnnie our guide needs to be corrected regarding the rock in Central Park. He told us (twice) that it was sheet rock. It is not sheet rock, but is indeed SCHIST.

Great!

Terry_R, Feb 2024

Our driver, Noah, was delightful We had trouble getting to the pickup spot on time and he waited for us. He did a wonderful job on our Central Park tour.

Pleasant

Dan_B, Feb 2024

Memories made

Sharron_T, Jan 2024

Central Park pedicab tour with Johny

Olga_M, Jan 2024

I took my 8 year old son to New York for the first time and decided to take this pedicab tour in Central Park. I'm so glad I did, it was amazing! Our tour guide Johny was great, very knowledgeable about the history of the park and he made sure to include all the facts that would interest an 8 year old boy (like home alone movie and spider man references). It was a cold January day, but Johny gave us a warm blanket, so we were very warm and cozy. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone who is visiting New York!

THX Great ride

Linda_A, Dec 2023

Our guy was very informative and we had time to get out and take pictures. We very much enjoyed our morning.

Fun and quick tour

Kyndall_M, Dec 2023

Our pedicab was decorated for Christmas and was very cute. Our ride started on time and our driver Johnny was great. He gave us time to get out and explore when we wanted to and was ready to go when we were. There was a little confusion on where the pickup place was, but other than that it was great. I would definitely recommend booking ahead of time and not just getting a random one from the park.

Johnny was an excellent...

Johnny was an excellent tour guide and storyteller - the ride was comfortable and he provided a lap blanket!

Fabulous tour of Central Park

I loved our tour. Our driver was knowledgeable and made sure we were comfortable and well taken off. We came upon an opera singer singing Ava Marie and I cried like a baby at strawberry fields.
