Experience a tour around the island, carriage-style. The carriage tours are the most favored way to explore the island as well as the most authentic, as it is one of the oldest horse and buggy services offered. The carriage tours first began providing tours of the island in 1869 when the first city carriage license was issued. Today, guests can experience the sightseeing tour in a horse-drawn carriage and visit the landmarks on the island.
