Skip to content The complete minute-by-minute pedicab guide — 15+ landmarks, from grand fountains to quiet corners, all without a single tiring walk.
Two hours is the sweet spot for exploring Central Park — long enough to see all the highlights, short enough to keep the rest of your day free. This 2-hour Central Park itinerary shows exactly what you can experience by pedicab, from the grand landmarks to the quiet corners.
A realistic route through the park’s greatest hits — your driver tailors it to where you start and the light on the day.
Begin by gliding down the park’s elegant elm-lined promenade, past the statues of famous writers.
Arrive at the grand Angel of the Waters fountain, sweeping staircases and the tiled arcade below.
Continue to Bow Bridge over the Lake — the most romantic and photographed spot in the park.
Pause at the John Lennon memorial, with the historic Dakota building just across the street.
Skirt the wild woods of the Ramble and climb to Belvedere Castle for the best view in the park.
Discover the secret Shakespeare Garden and the Delacorte Theater beside Turtle Pond.
Roll along the east side past the Met and the ancient Egyptian obelisk, Cleopatra’s Needle.
Take in the shimmering Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, with skyline reflections on the water.
Cross to the west side for the open lawns of Sheep Meadow and the glamorous Tavern on the Green.
Finish near Wollman Rink and the park’s southern entrances, right by the skyline.
One hour covers the essentials, but a 2-hour Central Park itinerary lets you go deeper — adding the gardens, the Reservoir and the quieter corners — while still leaving plenty of time for the rest of your day. By pedicab you cover the whole route in comfort, with unlimited photo stops, something that would take most of a day on foot.
