Temecula carriage company

Great people to work with. very friendly

The carriage ride was fantastic. We were fortunate enough to be driven by a wonderful young lady Amelia, and a stunning Clydesdale horse named Floyd. Matt made a special arrangement for us, as it was my wife's birthday and we were just arriving at our hotel. We had a 5pm appointment time. He had the carriage pick us up at the hotel. (Not a regular practice) Super generous and thoughtful from his behalf. The carriage went through the vineyards and through some of the citrus groves before reaching their ranch. We had an opportunity to chill and have some of the provided snacks, but we're given the option to keep on going. We chose to keep going. The ride, the scenery, the conversations with Amelia, were all fantastic. Having a chance to pet and talk to Floyd was really cool as well. This was our first time experiencing anything like this. Overall it more than exceeded our expectations. I told Amelia that we would be back again, and that we would be telling all of our friends that come out to Temecula and have the time to definitely seize the opportunity to take one of these rides. Definitely a 5 star operation. YES would recommend!!!!!!

We had such an amazing time. We came for a weekend get away with my family and I love horses. This was such a great experience - we were able to pet Roy and then go for a ride. We were able to see multiple vineyards and even stop on the way back to get pictures with the sunset & Roy. Our driver (i forgot her name) but she was amazing as well and made the ride that much more enjoyable. This was the perfect little getaway and such an amazing experience. Even the carriage was comfortable as well.

Awesome experience from start to finish! Mark was super accomodating and knowledgeable throughout the experience.

This amazingly generous family goes above and beyond to ensure every experience booked with them is an enjoyable, family fun event for all. We absolutely cannot wait to go back and book another event, this is the first time we did a "Christmas" one and all our kiddos enjoyed themselves. They give you options on so many great things to do as well as many photo opportunities. They are all so welcoming and kind and never make you feel like you're rushed from one thing to another. They do accept tips, which I am absolutely kicking myself for since I didn't have cash on me. Suggestion, maybe put up your Venmo/Zelle/Apple pay info so we can tip that way next time? We would love to keep supporting your family's business!

The S'mores & Jingle Bells Sleigh Rides was a hit! Six of us booked a carriage ride together & had such a nice time! The lights & ride were so festive finishing off with hot cocoa, smores and great conversations around a sweet fire pit! The owner Mark was awesome! He made us feel welcomed & his daughter made us great hot cocoa!

Our family of 11 had an amazing time at the Temecula Carriage Company. We surprised our disabled sister for her birthday with a horse-drawn ride through the vineyards, followed by the grape stomp. We had 4 kids with us and they had a blast! It was a grape stomping family competition and Temecula Carriage Company takes care of it all! We took a picnic dinner, drinks, and ate under a lighted pavilion with plenty of seats in the heart of the vineyards. This company is family owned and they went above and beyond to make sure that we had the best time. They were so kind, generous, and fun! Thank you Temecula Carriage Company for making a memory that we will remember for a long time! We loved it!!!

We had fantastic time touring the vineyards and stomping our grapes Amazing party event and competition

Staff was super friendly! Christmas lights were good. Pleasantly surprised by the animals on the ranch...chickens, roster, pig, duck and a barnyard cat. Kids loved to look at the animals bet and after the sleigh ride. Very impressed with the grounds and place to gather before and after the sleigh ride!!

Sooo much fun! We did the carriage ride and grapestomp and it was a blast! Marika and her husband were amazing hosts! Our carriage gal, Amelia was super engaging and took some great shots of our fun! Hope to get out to one of their holiday carriage rides! Highly recommend!

We had the best experience taking our two year old daughter and family to see Santa & his workshop! The carriage ride was absolute MAGIC and practically had us in tears. We are certain this will be a new holiday tradition and are so happy we heard about it.

Beautiful experience. We were welcomed by friendly animals and a really nice employee upon arrival. She introduced my littles to Pickles (potbellied pig), Walter and Sprinkles (goats), and lastly Chloe their beautiful dog. She was great & took of our family before & after the ride. Our ride started out with Amelia (our carriage driver) and two beautiful horses (I forgot their names)! We rode through Wilson Creek Winery in Wine Country, it was quite beautiful and relaxing. The weather was great...not too warm. As we rode through Amelia provided us some details about places we passed along the way. The ride was smooth and the horses were great! Vines were mature and in picture worthy stage. Overall a great experience & look forward to returning for Grape Stomping! They do that too! *Nice for a girls day, romantic date or family event. Tips: bring cash-for tipping their wonderful crew Sunscreen/ block if during the summer, & hat. They supplied a complimentary on the carriage, for the !

I'm so glad my friends and I did this grape stomp. It was such a great experience. The carriage ride thru the vineyards was so peaceful and relaxing. The two horses that pulled the carriage, James and Chewy, were literally the biggest horses I'd ever seen. The grape stomp competition was so much fun. I highly recommend. 10 out of 10.

My family and I really enjoyed this experience! We originally scheduled our carriage ride on Thursday, but it was rained out. The wonderful owners accommodated us to reschedule on the.following Tuesday. It was a beautiful day and they made it a great.afternoon to spend with family in a lovely setting! Thank you mark and Mikara!

We took our 5 kids to see Santa in his workshop on the carriage ride and they LOVED it!! Santa was wonderful and he even spent time telling them all about his special key he uses to get into houses without a chimney. They are still telling people what they learned. The staff was all incredibly kind, courteous, and professional. I wish I could remember his name, but the gentleman who checked us in, made my kids hot chocolate, and then helped them take turns on the see-saw was AMAZING! He exuded a level of customer service you don't see very often any more and we will definitely be returning!

Our family had so much fun! We absolutely love everyone at Temecula Carriage Company! Thank you!

Had a great time attending a bachelorette party here. We started our day by dropping off our items in a picnic area. Soon after that, we boarded our horse drawn carriage, led by Mark. It was nice going through the countryside because you felt like you were in a different world. Once we got back, we had a grape stomp! It is a good idea to bring a pair of shorts or wear shorts for this It was a blast. Next, we returned to our picnic area and had our potluck lunch It was a fun and unique bachelorette party. It would also be a great place to celebrate birthdays or other special occasions.

Recently I went to the Temecula Carriage Company for my birthday with my fiancée. The carriage was beautiful and reminded me of a Cinderella carriage. The couple in charge of the carriage ride were so sweet and welcoming. My favorite part aside from the beautiful carriage ride was I got to meet one of their horses. His name was Archie. It made my day and brought back memories from when I used to ride. I highly recommend this company.

Amelia, our carriage driver, was very personable and friendly. She drove our horse, Paul, expertly, and we had a thoroughly enjoyable experience!

This is a family owned business. The entire family help with the tour and they do such an amazing job. We reserved this company for a relatives surprise birthday and it was awesome! There were clean outdoor bathrooms near the outdoor table area where we set up our food and drinks. When it was time for our tour the gentleman gave us plenty of advanced notice and we boarded the carriage to start. At one point during the tour we stopped for pictures and the youngest daughter was so helpful volunteering to take pictures for everyone. Upon return from the carriage tour, we were given time to eat, drink, and chat before the grape stomping competition began (a must-do). We had such a great time and it was so much fun I would absolutely recommend this family business to anyone. Recommendations: if you're doing the grape stomping, pants are fine-just make sure you can fold them up a bit so they don't get dirty. Also, an extra pair of shoes or sandals, and a towel to clean up, but they provide a wash area to clean your feet which is also fine.

Had a great time! Lovely carriage ride. Beautiful sightseeing. Lovely host, lovely carriage and horse. Highly Recommend!

We had a great time with our grandkids! Really loved the carriage ride & the sweet helper elves took some great photos for us! The firepits & croquet at the waiting area were so fun, great touch! Santa was awesome with the kids. Will come back next year!

We had such an amazing experience! The owner was so sweet to my special needs child, it warmed my heart. He saw my son struggling while we were waiting for our carriage ride and the owner took it upon himself to show my son some horses while we waited. I will definitely be supporting more of their events!

Such a fun experience! The owners were very sweet. My family and I went grapestomping and had a blast.

The Santa's Workshop carriage ride was the most amazing experience. We have four children and they ALL were entranced and awe-struck. The lights, the ride, visiting and talking to Santa... it all was magical. Santa read us a story and I nearly cried it was so heartwarming. We will definitely be back every year. Don't miss this spectacular experience.

Went very well. Great customer service the kids loved the houses and it was a pleasant ride. It wasn't as long as it said but time flies when you're having fun. Highly recommend

I want to begin by saying that when I spoke to Mariahka on the telephone she was so helpful and patient with all my questions which was much appreciated. We came here to celebrate my mother-in-law's birthday with a covered wagon ride through the Wilson Creek Winery and a tour of the stables (because she loves horses). All of the staff was very warm and patient with the varied ages, fitness levels and personalities of our group. We paid extra to have a picnic lunch afterwards on the grounds which exceeded our expectations...there was much variety in the sandwich offerings (including catering to our 3 vegetarians) and we were provided 2 charcuterie boards in addition. The table was in a nice shady part of the garden. We had a very pleasant visit. Remember to bring cash for tipping as there is no place nearby to get any.

Closest animal to a unicorn I have ever met. Straight magical. The shear awesomeness nearly impregnated my wife. If we would have stayed on the carriage more than an hour I'm near certain my wife would be carrying triplets. It was for her 50th birthday so that is saying something.

Such a fun time on the carriage and with the Easter bunny. This is our second time doing this experience. Great price and so much fun for the kids

had the most amazing experience!! it was a total blast ! it was worth every penny !' the carriage to the winery's where relaxing and enjoyable !!! And the grape stomping was so fun ! and the host where amazing gave us great treatmen!! it was overall 10/10 best experience ever! Will most definitely do this again!

Such a fun experience my boys loved the headless horseman experience. Everyone was so nice and friendly .

My wife and I went on their Headless Horseman carriage ride last weekend. It just sounded like some silly Halloween fun and the price was reasonable. Our carriage had 6 adults and one teenager, and I was a little concerned when the driver said that was unusual, that they usually have mostly kids. At that point I was wondering if we'd made a mistake. The carriage ride wound around several acres, past some well decorated areas and spooky areas, had several jump scares, a very funny bandit tried to rob us, and of course, the Headless Horseman. Overall, it was enjoyable and it was obvious the crew was having fun with it. The staff, before, during and after the ride were very friendly and accommodating and made every attempt to make the ride a fun experience. We learned that they have a Christmas carriage ride - we look forward to taking our grandkids on that.

We had a blast as a family of four. Ages 6 to 12 Sword fighting with headless horseman and the stops were done great. A fun night for to get in the spirit of Halloween.

Communication and service were great!! Very easy to book. Upon arrival carriage was ready, extremely PROMPT!! The young lady was knowledgeable and provided a bit of history along our ride. A tad pricey for me but would probably visit once a year!!

First time doing the Santa Workshop Christmas carriage ride, and it was truly magical! They were running just a tad bit behind, but that's to be expected the day before Christmas Eve. Not to worry, they had plenty to entertain us while waiting. Including free hot chocolate, bonfires, lawn games, and a Christmas kids movie playing. Once we had our carriage, our driver Amelia was super sweet and very informative. She made our little journey very fun and memorable. My daughter was wide eyed and enjoyed every second of it. When we arrived at Santa's workshop, it was a great one on one experience. Santa told her a little Christmas secret, and she was even impressed with how much he knew about football because of the conversation he had with her Papa lol. Overall the experience was great and in my opinion worth every penny to see the joy and magic in my daughter's face. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience and we will definitely be back next year!

What an amazing event we attended last night. A private carriage ride through the decorated grounds ending with a few private minutes with the real Santa Claus. It was chilly so dress warm but it was an awesome experience. Horses are beautiful and powerful, we had two Clydesdale horses named Chip and Sarge who will be pulling a carriage in the Rose Parade this year. Our carriage driver was great, engaged in conversation, and answered all the kids' questions about the animals and the property. The grounds were fun as well. An old school teeter-totter kept the kids busy while we waited and there's an old horse drawn trolley that was lit with Christmas lights, great for a few family photos.

Family low key fun with low spooky fan fare for small children. Cute teeter totter while you wait. 5 tables and a couple of benches by the patio, plenty of grass to walk or bring a blanket to sit while you wait your time for your carriage. Storytelling and story line for 20 minutes as the carriage pulls you through the dark. The characters come alive and play with whole heart. As an adult I enjoyed the fervor and props! My two 13 yo ladies smiled and pointed, not too jaded yet, and laughed and screamed with the carriage riders. Headless horseman as promised came trotting out w flaring dramatic Cape and horse neighing! We had our axes and swords propped up and ready to impale the ghost properly upon reach!!! Lovely time. The littles were dressed in costume. No candy there. No drinks. Outhouse for bio break needs. So bring your own cooler, your own candy, and hold your bodily fluids unless you want to use the outhouse. Booked tickets on the website on my computer. Email sent had the address of where this carriage ride was located. They have your name on a clip board, you do not need to print out the ticket. I had the QR code screen shot on my phone just in case. Friendly family fun. Looking forward to the Christmas time carriage ride.

This is our 3 year doing the headless horseman ride, my kids love it, every year the carriage company mixes it up so you never know what to expect. We did it 2 times this year and each ride was different. I love hearing my kids laugh with their friends about the characters and what scared them. My only request is for more headless horseman next year, this year's interaction was choppy, oh and we miss your creepy neighbor.

Had the best time with my nieces this past Saturday! They loved the carriage ride and visiting Santa in his workshop! Such a great experience! We are definitely making this a yearly tradition! Thank you Temecula Carriage company!

Best experience, Great owners! Highly recommended it! Can't wait to go back! I'm excited to see other events

Great experience and all the employees are Maggie you with a commitment to hospitality The horseless carriage ride for my group of 11 was perfect

Saw this on my IG feed and I said hmmmm let me take my granddaughter on this carriage ride. She loved it and gave me a thumbs up because she is non-verbal. She enjoyed every minute of the ride. Thank you for such a wonderful night. We will be back again

My friends and I visited their Headless Horseman Carriage Ride on October 28th at 6:30. They did a great job and we really enjoyed ourselves. Definitely recommend.

Excellent customer service, very affordable, very warm and welcoming. I will be returning

Amazing experience both for Halloween and Jingle Bells rides, it is very cold so don't forget your sweaters and blankets. Great value IMO, we did a private ride a few years ago and would also book this again.

We attended the Headless Horseman Wagon Ride on October 14, 2023. The environment fits in nicely with the Legend of Sleepy Hollow as it within the Temecula wine country. We found this event great for families with small children, however we recommend preparing children that everything they will experience is only make-believe. The ride is about 20 minutes which seems about right. Our coach-driver did a great job narrating the ride and the live actors acted their heart out! Overall, we found this a positive experience and plan to return for their Christmas and Easter events. -All Things Haunted

Fantastic! Everyone is always so personable and kind. The horses are majestic, and the ride itself is so much fun.

My friends and I went to do the Headless Horseman carriage ride, we had a really fun time. Definitely recommend it when it's dark out to be able to enjoy it a bit better and add the creepy and more jump scare factor.

The "sleigh" ride was a wonderful relaxing ride through the beautifully decorated property with lots of pretty seasonal lights. It is an experience not to be missed. Ask them about their Clydesdale horses too.

It was a beautiful morning to surprise the kids with a carriage ride to see Santa. They are being very careful in keeping with staying 6 feet apart and wearing masks. We were greeted by friendly staff and immediately directed to a comfortable carriage pulled by a beautiful horse. He takes us around and we go through the area talking to other Santa helpers including a nutcracker! We enter a festive decorated barn where we can talk to Santa from a distance. The ride is short but due to COVID, it's understandable.
