Super big track with max speeds for the Carousel at 40-45mph. The track was pretty nicely designed - 2 straight stretches, a couple of sharp bends and then some wide turns for a nice bit of coasting.Great for team events - we had a real blast!

Yes, its old, but its also a San Francisco classic, and the little ones love it. Just let your imagination go in circles for a few minutes and ignore all your worries. Try and find a horse that not only goes up and down but also has some hair on its tail. If youre holding your kids hand, let the hair also gently hit their back and really pretend theyre going to take off soon! And just remember when you get off, that millions of kids and adults have been around and around on this joy ride. And now youre on them too!

This antique carousel is a truly special feature of the cultural landscape of San Francisco. Nestled in the childrens section of Golden Gate Park, it is perfectly located for young people to enjoy and get a small taste of history. However, the building it is housed in could use some maintenance.

Super cheap. Beautiful structure

Nice place, perfect for children and big children! Very pretty carousel!

There’s a wooden white horse

Its the largest carousel Ive ever seen. And its going round for both, little children and adults ones :)The carousel is located in a glasshouse thus providing shelter against the constantly blowing wind.Also a plus is a little kiosk nearby with coffee and snacks selling. A nice fun for the whole family in the heart of San Francisco, the Golden Gate Park :)

Great price operates even in the rain! Fun for all ages.

Classic old carousel! The original carousel organ is still there, but not functioning. I would love to see it restored!

Its lovely and inexpensive, set near a spectacular playground. My only complaint is that unlike the carousel in New Yorks Central Park, there are no safety belts, so some expecting to be able to strap their little ones to a horse or zebra will be disappointed. I hope they get safety belts someday.

Beautiful old fashioned carousel. Only $2 per ride and adults of children 5 and younger are free.

We have a two year old and she loved riding on the carousel. Not sure how old this is but it looked original and it is always cool to experience these places nostalgic pieces of history. We will do this again.

When I go to the city I always take my kids here. This is not a bad price I think and it is fun for them. They get to ride it when we get to the park and when we leave if they have been good.

Such a beautiful place!

This place is where I went with my father as a child!Good memories are made here.Youll children will never forget it

Checked online and it was supposed to be open on a Monday, came here. It’s closed and it doesn’t say anything about operation hours

Great kids activity; good pricing too as adults are $2 and kids under 5 are free.

One of the best playgrounds in the city next to a merry go round. Hard to argue. It can get very busy most days.

Cool carousel, right next to the big playground. Sometimes there is an ice cream vendor and a hot dog vendor in front (ice cream always hits the spot!)

We drove a hour to go to this carousel and the hours said that it closes at 4:30 and it was 3:00 and said they were not open. So we waisted 1 hour of our day to go to a place that was suppose to be open but was not. We looked on every site they had and it said that they closed at 4:30 and not any time before.

I had a good time on carousel you must go

Nice carrousel that is strangely closed inside a building. I dont know the reason behind that but looks horrible. The worse thing is that is difficult to see the people riding it because if you are not riding it, you have to stay outside.

This a classic carousel -- very beautiful, fully restored. A must for parents with young kids!

Was really fun and very inexpensive

Best place in GG park to take kids

Fun, old school carousel and inexpensive.

Sorry! My stork is pink.

Pretty cool

Best carousel

Cheap but not enough variety on the rides.
