Buffalo Heritage Carousel - Buffalo (NY)

5 /5 Ken Barnes: I was introduced to Buffalo Heritage Carousel during a Canalside tour. Not only is it a great place to stop by for a quick ride, but the building can be booked for small to medium events. I recently hosted an event at the Carousel (30-35 people, no kids) and everybody had a great time. Linda and the entire staff were wonderful and super easy to work with. Of course, its a no-brainer for a childs birthday party or something similar, but dont limit the Heritage Carousel to the kids, ALL ages will have a good time there.

5 /5 john estrada: Carousel was interesting to see the old horses and other carousel"seats" only a dollar but its good to give them a donation if you can. Help keep it running.

5 /5 Brian Faber: Visit this historical landmark and give it a ride for only $1! We had fun on the ride and should be a part of all your visits to Canal Side. Go in the mornings to avoid the crowds. Parking is available throughout the harbor front so find something that fits your needs. There is also a gift shop if you wish to take home a souvenir. The ride is actually a good amount of time for the cost of a $1.

5 /5 Wade Cowan: The carousel was one of our last stops as our trip came to an end. My wife looked like a gleeful little girl as we whirled side by side on this beautiful work of art. The music of the restored Wurlitzer made the ride like a scene from an old movie. My little girl wife has now established a goal of finding and riding all carousels in the contiguous hemisphere. Charlie was a great source of information and kind to take pictures for us. At one buck a ride, contribution to the preservation and merchandise was a must. Simply wonderful.

5 /5 mel lau: Loved this place! My daughter is in her carousel era and would ride one as many times as she could/is allowed haha. Good thing rides are only $1 here! And its a beautiful, very classic/old-fashioned carousel. The two inner rows of animals move up and down while the outermost row of animals stay still, and theres a few "carriages" for people that just want to sit still. I know its been restored and im not sure what it looked like before but it looks great now. PLUS, its solar powered! In any case, its worth a brief visit to ride even just once. And whats great is they have day passes ($10 for the whole day) and even different annual memberships (which are so worth it, especially if you live in the area!)
