Windsor Christmas Horse-Drawn Carriage Rides
Visitors snuggle up for a relaxing journey through the winter landscape of Windsor Great Park in an open-top carriage. The carriage is decorated for the festive season with gold and white berries and twinkling garlands, drawn by a horse sporting antlers. The circular tour travels at a leisurely pace toward scenic spots such as the 18th-century Cow Pond.

Tips & Advice
- Book as early as you can, because trips are limited and only run on a small number of dates during the festive season.
- Bring cash or be ready to pay by bank transfer on the day, as this small firm has no card facilities.
- Keep your phone handy the day before, because they text to confirm the ride is running once they've seen the weather forecast.
- Dress warmly for the open-top carriage, although lap rugs and umbrellas are on board if a shower comes through during your ride.
- Use the Savill Building before or after your ride, since it's free to enter and has a café, gift shop and toilets.
Special Events & Promotions
- Couples planning a proposal can get help arranging it on the ride, with a backup spot inside The Savill Garden if the weather turns.
