Had a great tour of Central Park in the winter sunshine with Carly. She was very knowledgeable about some of the more interesting and unusual features of the Park, and was a good listener too! We took in lots of the sights like Belvedere Castle and the Mad Hatters tea party, and even saw the seals and the animal clock in the zoo. Carly set a comfortable pace; get yourself on this tour.

This tour was absolutely fantastic! Carly was lovely and very knowledgeable of the park. Running around Central Park and learning all about it was the best way to end my trip to New York. I would 100% recommend.

The run was the highlight of my stay in New York. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly and the run was at just the right pace. She took lots of photographs and sent them to me on WhatsApp. Highly recommended.

This was one of my best run ever! Emily was just fantastic! I had the most fantastic run with Emily who picked me up at my hotel and run in my proposed pace and told me lots of interesting and fun facts about NY and Central Park. And had me back at my hotel on the very minute as planned. I am so grateful for the super quick response I got on my e-mail request, even on a weekend and the support and flexibility with booking a time outside ordinary schedule. This exceeded and surpassed all my expectations! I will highly recommend this experience to all runners, beginners or athletes. I can just assume that this is the same all over the world. I will for sure book another run where ever I am in the world. Amazing to book a buddy in a city where you are alone. I am sure you will not regret the experience - just book it!
