Skip to content The complete Central Park loop and the heart of Midtown Manhattan in a single ride. Sixty minutes in the park, thirty down Fifth Avenue and through Times Square, and nobody gets out. Ninety minutes at $3 a minute — $270 for the pedicab, whether one of you rides or three.
The quiet north end of the park and the crowds of Fifth Avenue, back to back, without changing anything but the scenery.
Ninety minutes covers ground that would take most of a day on foot — and you stay seated for all of it.
Ninety minutes is $270 for the pedicab. No charge per person, no tax, no added fees, nothing at the end.
The park, the buildings and the movie locations, told to you the whole way.
Your driver points these out and tells you the story as we ride past them. Nothing here is a scheduled stop.

The first hour is the complete 6.1-mile Central Park loop — the south end, the Reservoir, Harlem Meer at the very north and the west drive back down. Then the pedicab leaves the park at the Plaza Hotel and rides Fifth Avenue south through Midtown, crosses to Times Square and runs down Broadway to Herald Square and the Empire State Building, before returning north past Bryant Park and Radio City. Electric assist is what makes both halves fit inside ninety minutes.
Guests on the Midtown half of the ride.
Everything below is seen from your seat. Nothing is a timed stop and nobody gets out. In the park the pedicab simply keeps rolling; in Midtown we stop at red lights like every other vehicle, and your driver keeps talking through it.
What comes with the ride, at no extra charge:
One continuous ride: the park drives first, then Fifth Avenue south, Times Square, Broadway down to 34th Street and back up Sixth.
The complete 6.1-mile park drive: Grand Army Plaza, Gapstow Bridge, the zoo and Balto, the Met, the Reservoir, Harlem Meer at the north end, the Great Hill, Belvedere Castle, Strawberry Fields and Sheep Meadow — including the northern half most visitors never see.
Out of the park at the Plaza Hotel and south past Trump Tower and St. Patrick’s Cathedral, then west along 49th Street past Rockefeller Center. Fifth runs one way south, so the landmarks arrive one after another.
South down Seventh Avenue straight through Times Square, then onto Broadway past the theatre district. You ride through the middle of it rather than looking at it from a distance.
Broadway down to 34th Street for Herald Square, Macy’s and the Empire State Building — the southern turn of the ride.
North past Bryant Park, the New York Public Library and Radio City Music Hall, picking up everything the ride down did not.
Out at Columbus Circle, where the park begins again.
Most of our riders are first-time visitors who want to see New York without spending the day walking it. With experienced drivers, comfortable electric pedicabs and a rate posted in plain sight, we make every ride a straightforward one. Central Park + Midtown is the most ground we cover in a single ride: the complete park loop, Fifth Avenue, the Empire State Building and Times Square, without you leaving your seat.
✔ The complete Central Park loop ✔ The heart of Midtown ✔ Nobody gets out ✔ Ninety minutes, one posted rate
Both rides are private, priced per pedicab and charged by the minute. Neither one asks you to get out and walk. You stay seated and keep moving, except when traffic, safety or park conditions require stopping. The only real difference is how far we go.

Pedicab fares in New York City are set by the minute, and ours is $3 a minute — posted on the cab, the same for one guest or three. Nothing is added at the end: no per-person fee, no fuel charge, no booking fee. A longer 120-minute ride that adds the Midtown streets below 34th is being road-tested right now; ask your driver if you want it. Routes may vary with traffic, park closures, events and weather.
No. It is the price for the whole pedicab. One person pays $270 and three people pay $270. New York City law does not allow a pedicab to charge extra for additional passengers, and we do not.
By the minute, which is how the city requires pedicabs to charge. Our posted rate is $3.00 per minute and every minute costs the same. Ninety minutes comes to $270. Nothing is added at the end.
There are no scheduled stops and nobody gets out — that is what lets the park and Midtown both fit into ninety minutes. In Central Park the pedicab simply keeps rolling. In Midtown we stop at red lights like every other vehicle on the avenue; that is traffic, not a tour stop, and your driver keeps talking through it.
Yes, and that is rather the point. The park half is quiet, green and almost carless; the Midtown half is loud, bright and full of people. Riding straight from one into the other is what makes this tour worth taking. If you want only the calm, book our Full Central Park Loop instead.
Many guests think so. Times Square and the Empire State Building are lit after dark and the avenues photograph beautifully. The park is greener by day. Both work — pick the one that matches what you most want to see.
Three adults, comfortably. Larger groups ride in two or more pedicabs travelling together, and each pedicab is the same $270 for the ninety minutes.
It starts at Grand Army Plaza by The Plaza Hotel and finishes on Central Park South by Columbus Circle. The two are a few minutes’ walk apart.
Our pedicabs have covers for light rain. In heavy rain we will move you to another time or refund you in full — Midtown in a downpour is not the ride you booked.
