We were in town last night and took a carriage ride! I liked how well the guide treated the horse. It was a fun great experience and our four year old left feeling like a princess

My husband and I had a great time on our 30 minute ride. The driver was very friendly and offered information and recommendations while we rode by buildings, and even let us pet the horse (after asking if we could). It was a great pace to really take in the city and look at the scenery. They even provided blankets in case we got cold. We will definitely be taking another ride the next time we visit.

We used a gift card to take our kids for their birthdays. Both my kids loved it! My daughter thought she was a real life CINDERELLA! It was lovely and we really enjoyed the Christmas lights!

We come for the vibe at old Market and cannot get enough! Every time we are here it is a must that we get a carriage ride. We get the same driver everytime! We request him! If you're in the area go for a ride and request John! Very friendly and professional drivers! I learned a lot about omaha as John has impeccable knowledge about the whole area! Tipped us off to some excellent places to.eat and visit! The horses are some handsome brothers and very well behaved! Loved it!

First ride and I was born here. Linn was an awesome horse. Had a bit of a temperament due to not getting his excercise recently but great horse. Met Cody the other horse as well. The coachman we had was great. Even gave us a little history lesson. I can't remember his name, but he was young 38 yrs old. Will definitely do it again.

My wife and I went on the Cinderella carriage ride for our first anniversary. I expected to be rather bored, but instead it was enjoyable. Parts of the ride were through crowds and traffic, so it was fun to see how the old market works. Parts of the ride were really peaceful and romantic.
