We really enjoyed this trolley guided tour. The lady sharing the history information was very polite and very knowledgeable. She kept it interesting and was animated in the way she relayed info to us. We made two stops where we get off the trolley & explored the stops we were at which were very interesting. I would highly recommend this for anyone to experience.

This really warms my heart! I love tours too. I've been taking them most of my life all over the world. I really try to bring the best of them to the four that I give. I am so happy that you enjoyed it and look forward to having you aboard again on the others.
