Updated: Mar 3, 2025

Carriage Rides at El Dorado Hills Town Center are back! Enjoy the beautifully decorated twinkling Town Center atmosphere while you listen to the gentle clip clop of the horse drawn carriage. It’s a festive way to celebrate the season while benefiting Hands4Hope!

The Hands4Hope – Youth Making A Difference Youth Board has selected to raise funds this year for a new Hands4Hope Scholarship through the Education Program. Proceeds from the rides benefit this cause on December 14, 21, and 22 from 4 to 8 pm.

New this year: reserve your time slot online in advance!

Prices for 15-minute rides are as follows:

  • 2 riders: $25

  • 3 riders: $30

  • 4 riders: $40

  • 5-6 riders: $50 (private carriage option)

  • The carriage sits up to 6 riders. Rides are weather-permitting. All purchases are final. If El Dorado Hills Town Center makes the determination to cancel the rides due to weather, it will do so by 2 pm on the day of the ride, and registered guests will be notified and provided a refund.

    Rides can also be reserved on-site during the hours that Hands4Hope is offering the rides, pending available space, with payment by cash, check, or credit card.

    The check-in and ticket booth is located at the drop-off circle by the movie theater, between Mimosa House and Cold Stone.

    Youth and Adult volunteers are needed to staff the ticket booth. View and sign up for available shifts here.
