There’s just something about a carriage ride. It feels fancy—whimsical and dignified all at once. It’s a transportation method that exists in the twenty-first century only by the power of nostalgia. Touring a new city by car? How plebeian! By foot? Barbarian! No, we’ll have nothing but the plushiest seats, the most ornate carriage, and the friendliest, least smelly mule you can find, thank you.
Previously relegated to the realms of the French Quarter and Marigny, the nation’s oldest carriage company, Royal Carriages, is crossing the Lake to Covington, adding a layer of enchantment to the Downtown Historic District.
Thirty minute tours will highlight Northshore hotspots including: the Tammany Trace, Covington Cemetery #1, Bogue Falaya Park, The Star Theatre, and The Southern Hotel.
