Carriage ride during Christmas light display A very comfortable ride throughout Mt. Dora in the evening to see the Christmas lights display. Marisa was our driver and was a lovely young lady full of good will and cheer, offering to take our pictures to keep the memory. . Perfect for the holiday. The town was lite up with displays and music. Definitely put you in the holiday spirit. The carriage was also decorated and very safe. It’s a beautiful town to visit any time of the year, but Christmas is definitely special. Thank you for an enjoyable experience.

Very Nice Very nice. $30/ person + tip. Went all around Mt Dora. It would have been much nicer had the carriage been towed by horses instead of battery driven, but I also understand the additional cost of using horses.

Fantastic This is fantastic way to see and learn about the town of Mount Dora. The narration is great and our driver Brian helped by pointing out the areas being explained . The ride is very comfortable and moves at the prefect speed for site seeing . The stop at Lake Dora for photos was a great way to end the tour.

Wonderful What a great time we had! Charming carriage, nice and knowledgeable tour guide/driver Colleen. Exploring the beauty of downtown Mount Dora was great. Florida is so much more than white sandy beaches and swamps. Florida has a rich history that few get to know and experience.

Wonderfully fun ride for Halloween. The carriage was decorated for the season with spooky scary Halloween flare, with Halloween music playing and an eerie but fun nighttime tour through historic Mount Dora. A lot of fun and highly recommended for any seasonal celebration or non-seasonless celebration and thank you Colleen to our wonderful driver. Highly recommended.

We booked the Historic Carriage Ride and loved it! Colleen was so sweet, and very knowledgeable about the history of Mt. Dora. She narrated the tour herself, and we could really tell how much she loves the area. Absolutely worth the money!
