Walt Disney World Carriage Rides

Carriage Rides

What could be more magical than a carriage ride through some of Walt Disney World‘s finest resort areas? At Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter Resort, and Port Orleans Riverside Resort, guests can take a carriage or wagon ride, and during the holiday season, they can even take a sleigh ride! Each carriage, wagon, and sleigh are guided by two majestic horses through beautiful but different scenery. These rides are just some of the many fun activities guests can enjoy on their non-park days at Walt Disney World.
