carriage rides

Romantic city transport

Carriage rides are excursions in a horse-drawn vehicle, typically offered as tourist attractions or romantic outings.

Cities with historic districts often feature carriage rides through old neighborhoods: We took a carriage ride through Central Park.

The phrase evokes nostalgia for a slower, more elegant era of transportation.
