Central Park Sightseeing Pedicab Tour
Pedicabs have been called many things throughout the years and are widely used around the world as a swift, ecologically friendly means of transportation in small and large cities alike. They were introduced to the United States in 1962 at the Seattle World’s Fair for transportation around the fairgrounds. Many cities caught on to the easy use of cycle-driven taxis and New York City was no exception.
Central Park Sightseeing’s fleet of pedicabs is ready to show you and your family the wonders of Central Park. If your family is diverse in energy and athleticism, finding a tour that comfortably accommodates everyone can be almost impossible. Smaller children find it harder to keep up with adults when walking or biking through the park. People in your family with impairments may find longer walks daunting – particularly in a group setting. Let our pedicabs take you on a tour your entire family can appreciate at the same pace.
Central Park is six miles long and over a mile wide, full of manicured landscapes, bridges, and stunning views. If you are visiting New York City as a group, the park can seem overwhelming to try and tackle. Central Park Sightseeing’s tour guides know how to manage any group of any size, able to show this beautiful outdoor monument to its fullest extent. There is ample time to take pictures since you don’t have to watch where you are driving!
These tours can last from one to two hours in the park, or can be extended to include any neighbourhood in Manhattan. The price of the tour includes the rental of the pedicab, which seats two adults or two adults and one child. This price is guaranteed – if you find a lower price online for your tour, we will refund the difference.
