Listen as your guide tells you about the park's history and New York City's famous residents and pass by several filming locations. See well-known attractions including Wollman Rink, the Central Park Carousel, Central Park Zoo, and more.

Keep your camera ready as you stop to explore some of the most photographed locations in Central Park. Make a quick stop at the Balto Statue by Frederick Roth before moving on to Bethesda Fountain.
