Central Park

The Central Park Mall is a famous destination, having appeared in countless movies and television programs. It's also the only straightaway in the park!

Cleopatra's Needle

The oldest artifact in the park! At over 2,000 years old, a relic of Ancient Egypt has taken permanent residence in Central Park. Immediately behind you will be the Metropolitan Museum of Art!

5 minutes • Admission Ticket Free

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir

A giant body of water in the middle of the park, overlooked by skyscrapers. One of the top spots for photos in the whole park!

This mosaic memorial to the former Beatles star John Lennon is located just a stone's throw away from the location where the artist died. A serene location where you can often find musicians playing away!

Reviews

Fun tour

Michael_S, 01-10-2022

Good experience. Fun for my daughter and I. Not too strenuous but a working knowledge of how to ride a bike is necessary. Saw parts of the park we couldn’t on foot.

Great tour guide

Jenny_S, 15-06-2022

The tour guide was fabulous and made it well worth it. Loved all the history we learned and the sites we saw

Great way to enjoy Central Park.

Great way to see Central Park and get exercise at the same time!
Guide was interesting and personable.

Good ride overall! Come earlier. Cafe as a bonus!

Pros:
- Quick 2+ hours ride in Central Park with a nice morning weather (we did the 10 am one)
- Short line, fast check-in if you purchased your tickets online (we did via TripAdvisor and just showed one barcode from Apple Wallet for 3 tickets)
- Highlights overview with the guide
- Good for saving time
- Great location, very close to the Central Park and as a bonus right next to a cute and tasty Cafe Serafina - we went there for lunch right after the ride.

Cons:
- Not organized gear pickup guidance, nobody really will help you unless you ask.
- Nobody tells you upfront that you don’t need a helmet unless you’re under 14 y.o. We were wondering around looking for helmets and thought that everyone must wear one until we asked an employee.
- Nowhere in the instructions it says that you have to come ahead of time (but you do need at least 10 min to check-in, try and get a bike, helmets for kids, find your guide)
- No way to see/choose in advance your guide. Our guide had a very thick French accent that was quite hard to understand, even though I’m bilingual and have been living in the states for more than a decade.
- The guide has no microphone, so it’s hard to hear what they say sometimes.
- If you have older or not very fit family members, they will be behind the pack. Sometimes the guide turns at unexpected point and the ones who behind might not see the signal. Stay close together as much as you can and keep an eye on the guide’s trajectory.
- Sometimes it’s hard to distinguish who’s from your group. I wish they had some colorful stuff or bikes that easy to spot.
- All bikes look the same, I wish they all had numbers, so it’s easy to find yours after each sightseeing stop.

Definitely recommend!

We loved seeing different parts of Central Park that we never would have stumbled upon on our own. Thank you for the “rules of biking Central Park” upfront, and for the information throughout. We definitely recommend keeping the groups small, and similarly aged.
