Fred was an amazing guide from historical facts, to knowledge of all the trials, to amazing fun and laughter through the whole tour. Highly recommend. Even for those NYC residents who have never ventured into the North Woods (me).

Ann_T

Fred the tour guide was wonderful and knew so many people in the Park and on the tour. We walked a lot and there were some steep parts

Nancy_B

This was a great tour - Fred is a terrific guide, and it was a perfect socially-distanced way to spend the morning. I'm a native New Yorker and was shocked at all the lovely parts of northern Central Park that I was unfamiliar with.

Tom_M

We had an excellent tour of a part of Central Park we have not been through before. Freddie did a super job sharing his knowledge and insights. Exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience the natural beauty of Central Park away from the crowds.

This is a very good tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the park's history and changes that are being consiedered for the future. He had a good knowledge about New York City. He was very considerate to those who were having some trouble with the walking (thers is some uphill/downhill) on this tour. I definitely want to come back & do this again with my husband.

I have lived in New York City for 28 years and have been in Central Park often - but I learned a few new things and saw the park from a different perspective. Fred Pflanzter, our tour guide, did a great job conveying his enthusiasm for the Park. A very good way to spend a couple of hours - highly recommended.
