ABOUT
Little Red Carriage is a small, privately owned business with that simple image of “just a girl & her horse.”
We're the first NYC horse carriage ride online booking company solely run by women!
We offer quality, memorable tours of Central Park at a high level of customer satisfaction & animal welfare.
While other companies expanded to manage multiple drivers over many carriages, we’re able to keep our attention on you & our horses!
Our Tours
Your driver will provide a fully guided tour including the history of the park, details about all the highlights you pass by, and locations where countless movies took place.
Every ride includes a photo of you in the carriage (on your camera) and an option to feed the horse (while supplies last.)

Our guides know where the “Pigeon Lady” of Home Alone II resides, where Buddy mastered the art of the snowball in Elf, where to find the Fountain everyone thinks was in the TV show Friends, which apartment Lady Gaga was renting, which hotel is the famed Plaza from numerous films, and can point out the real “Ghostbusters Building.”
No trip to New York City is complete without a horse carriage ride through Central Park, which attracts approximately forty million people each year and we’ll show you the park the way it was intended to be seen.
Not a tourist?
Every New Yorker’s gotta do it once! From family outing to girls night out or romantic evening, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!
family FUN Day!
A short Central Park tour with us was the
perfect activity for this family's Sunday Fun Day!
Our rates and maximum passenger allowances are set by New York City.
Rates are per Trip, not per Person.
We can accommodate up to four adults in the carriage.

For large group bookings, please call 1-646-771-2868 or e-mail LittleRedCarriage@gmail.com to accommodate you on a case by case basis.
