Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

If there was no star that would be this service. Dean never showed up regardless of confirming the booking a week and a day before. His excuse was he forgot. Never use this unreliable service!!! Absolute disgrace as I always wanted a horse on my big day

We took a carriage ride as part of a relatives 70th birthday. What a glorious way to see the city!
The carriage comfortably fit 5 adults and the two with walking sticks, were able to get themselves in/out without too much trouble.
We rode down St Kilda road with the sunshine through the tree lined streets then through part of the gardens - it was very special and topped off a great day.
The staff were very helpful and friendly - so were the horses! We had Tim and Dennis - funny we can remember the horses names not the people!
While this is not something you would do every day - it was very special and fun. It was also amazing the people that stop to wave to you as you ride by

Thoroughly enjoyed our ride in carriage through the city with Dean and his two beautiful Grey horses. A nice experience to be in open air And hear the horses hoofs trotting.
Highly recommended. Thank you very much

Have been for several carriage rides around Melbourne with Jaime and Dean from Unique Carriage Hire. Took my cousin, visiting from Scotland on a ride from Flinders St. to Crown Casino. Was so lovely and my cousin said he felt like Royalty with so many people waving to us. Have been 3 or 4 times with friends both during the day and at night.Was dropped off at Regent Theatre to see a show, which was a novel way to arrive. Friends loved seeing the city all lit up at night and felt very special. During the day was a fabulous way to see the city landmarks and beautiful gardens. Thank you so much, Jaime and Dean. Can't wait to do it again. Your horses are gorgeous and your presentation is perfect.

From the first time I cold called Dean he was nothing but helpful. I went on to buy some horses and equipment after meeting him and taking part his wonderful operation in the city. Dean, his family and staff know how to do business and how to look after people.

We recently went on the city and garden tour and the whole family loved it! Jaime (the driver) was very friendly, and happily answered 100s of questions my girls had for her! Such a great way to see the city, especially with young kids. Horses were so well taken care of, happy and relaxed! Loved the experience and we will definitely be doing it again!
