"A fabulous way to see the city!"
A fabulous way to see the city! I loved the ease with which to hop on and off wherever along the way. I purchased the two day hopper pass, i loved that i could start my day in one area of town, go across town to something, and end close to my hotel. I have already recommended this to my friends and family.

"fantastic tour"
Drivers were very knowledgeable and courteous. This is a fantastic tour. It stops at various area's of the city and you can get back on a different trolley in 45 minutes. Plus it picks you up on the corner of 2nd and broadway, right next to the hard rock cafe so you are on music row to check out the other shops or honkey tonks in town.
