Carriage ride at FQ?

Has anyone been on the carriage ride at FQ? I would like to know the price and if it was worth it. Also, do you need to make reservations? Thanks!

Off the top of my head, I'd say call 407-WDW-PLAY. Also check All Ears.net and see if they have some info there.

I watched it go by several times but didn't ride it. It's located at Riverside and goes thru French Quarter and back to Riverside along the river. Sorry, don't remember the price but there was a line. Try allearsnet.com.

Re: Carriage ride at FQ?

It's been a couple years since we used it, but it was soooo nice. I for some reason don't rememeber what we paid, but we didn't make a ressie for it. I believe the carrages start at Riverside. There were two carrages right outside of Boatwrights. We just went up to one of them and away we went. Like I said, very nice.

The only carriage ride I've ever taken was at the Gateway Arch in St. Louis.

Yep Allyson pretty much summed it up with allearsnet.com! Here's a picture we were just there, but opted to ride the surrey bike instead of the carriage ride!

That seems very reasonably priced to me! Perhaps I can talk my men into doing this while we are there!!
