Tim was such a fabulous Driver anybody that goes to anyone outside of him would be making the biggest mistake. Not only is he knowledgeable, but he was so accommodating to my disabled mother. He is worth way more than what I paid. Everyone should ask for Tim. Thank you thank youPosted on Google![]()

I won a 60 minute classic pedicab ride through Central Park and that was really exciting! The owner was easy to get a hold of and communicate with so that I could find him at the meeting location. Our pedicab driver was really friendly and knowledgeable and told us so many facts about every stop that we went to. He did stop quite a few times to allow us to get off and see the sites. He only took about two pictures of us though. The rest of the stops he told us to get out for an allotted amount of time to look around so we could take our own pictures. Which is fine, but it was so hot and humid that we were miserable by the fourth stop and I told him we didn’t want to get out anymore. I’m not sure if that’s how pedicabs work? That’s they don’t take all the pictures or that they have you get off often and tell you to come back in 6-7 or 8-12 minutes? And also the sign regarding tips was a bit alarming and it could be offensive to some people because the wording wasn’t very professional. But other than that, I think it’s a great ride for the price and just make sure you have a good tip amount and be prepared to get out often without your driver.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Not what you pay for The driver was very nice but we paid for the deluxe ride and did not get it. When we asked about it, the driver just shook his head, smiled, and said no. The pedi cab was a great way to see Central Park but I would not book this tour again or recommend it.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

We booked the deluxe tour but felt the driver did not really cover the itinerary Our pedicab and driver were waiting when we arrived. Our driver was Dil and he was very pleasant and pointed out several locations throughout the ride but we did feel there were many things he did not point out as well, considering the list of sights on the itinerary and that was somewhat disappointing. We enjoyed the ride and obviously saw so much of Central Park that we wouldn't have seen any other way but we had expected more explanation after reading the ride description.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Bike Tour of Central Park with Farrukh We toured for 2 and a half hours. Our driver was Farrukh. He was brilliant. Lots of knowledge. The tour itself was well done and when we went outside the park to tour the streets, it was even better! I really enjoyed it. So much easier than walking.Posted on Viator![]()

Brilliant and fun way to see Central Park We booked this at the last minute as we had intended just going for a stroll around the park. We are so glad we booked this as we saw way more of the park than we could have by walking. Tim was our guide for the 90 minutes and was so helpful and knowledgeable. He explained everything as we went to various parts of the park and gave us time to take photos along the way. I'd highly recommend this company, Tim was BRILLIANT and it's a great way of seeing lots of different things in the park and find out about the historyPosted on Tripadvisor![]()

Pedicab ride around Central Park NYC Won this on a giveaway competition however I would have happily paid money for the trip. Our guide/driver was lovely and Farouk whom I dealt with to organise trip was amazing from start to finish. Highly recommend these guys ( infact I did to my friend who booked and did experience week before I did and also enjoyed it) thank you once again for the day .

lack of honesty and customer service I booked a one-hour pedicab tour through Central Park for my daughter and me. Our driver was wonderful, and we truly enjoyed the experience—until we returned from taking a quick photo at the “Spiderman Bridge” to find an NYPD officer speaking with our driver and another driver from the same company. Our pedicab had been parked on a muddy path near the Friends Fountain, and the NYPD informed them that pedicabs are not permitted to park there. Not a problem—things happen.However, the situation escalated when the other driver began arguing with the officer while the citation was being written. This extended the stop significantly. My daughter and I ended up sitting in the pedicab for nearly 25 minutes while the citation was processed. I even have time-stamped photos we sent to my husband that confirm the delay. We didn’t complain at the time—it was a beautiful day, and we simply enjoyed the scenery while waiting.Once the officers left, the tour resumed briefly, but then it ended. I mentioned to our driver that the tour had run short by about 20 minutes, but I still tipped generously because I felt bad for him. Later, I called the company’s headquarters expecting a partial refund, as we clearly did not receive the full tour we paid for. I understand the driver likely needed to return for his next tour, but if that was the case, it should have been communicated to us—or the lost time should have been compensated.Unfortunately, the person who answered the phone was dismissive and unprofessional, insisting we received the full tour despite the 25-minute delay. It wasn’t the amount of money that mattered—rather, it was the lack of honesty and customer service. Because of that interaction, I would not use this company again.Posted on Viator![]()

So glad we did this. The... So glad we did this. The guide was knowledgeable about all of the movies that were ever filmed in Central Park and pointed out different scenes and some history and facts. We were comfortable with a provided blanket on a brisk day. We were able to get off at 2-3 stops for a few minutes to walk around and then get back in. Highly recommend to be able to see Central Park in a way that would be difficult to do on your own.Posted on Viator![]()
