The guys who run the trolley do a great job of entertaining and engaging their passengers and give you a tour of a big cross section of the city. It's a great thing to do to acclimate yourself to ABQ.

We have never been to Albuquerque and this looked like a good way to learn about the city. We were not disappointed! These guys did a great job of taking us to key areas of the city and explaining the history and providing interesting facts. They managed to keep it interesting and entertaining as well. More than worth the cost.... More

From purchasing tickets online to boarding, to saying goodbye to Jesse and Mike, it could not have been better. The two guys and their trolley do a wonderful job at highlighting their city, showing the newbies around and providing interesting trivia. We were just passing through but have decided to return here as a vacation destination because of Mike and... More

Absolutely the best city tour of any we have taken. Extremely knowledgeable, fun tour guide (Mike). Quizzes with prizes on the tour. Discounts at area stores & restaurants after the tour. It's worth every penny !

Have been on several similarly designed city tours but found this one the BEST because it was very intelligently conceived and delivered by co-owners of the business. They covered just enough of history and current events to provide context for the sites we were seeing. They were able to insight into the daily lives of the people and the "things... More

Great way to start out a visit to Albuquerque...nice, concise and very comprehensive..covered all the important spots with a humerous and unique style...learned a lot about the different areas of town....might even be a good tour for locals to take to learn unique aspects of Albuquerque.

As a solo traveler, I like to begin with a bus or shuttle tour of towns I visit to get basic information and the lay of the land. I had checked all the bus tours listed for Albuquerque, and none were available for a solo traveler (required groups, or two or more). I saw the ABQ Trolley listed, but was... More

Great tour. It was very informative and fun. The guys did a great job showing off their city. I highly suggest that you take the trolley for a great tour. A bonus is a discount at the route 66 diner-- great atmosphere. Also discounts at the Sandia peak restaurants-great food and views. The guys do a great job on the... More

An Albuquerque native of 50 years, Mike and Jesse do a great job of making our city proud. I love the fact that they use TV monitors to show the historical pictures of the original buildings they highlight on their tours. Taking guests through actual neighborhoods and giving the history of them was also a pleasant surprise! Even though I... More

It seems like everyone has their hand out when you travel and we thought $25 each was a lot for a trolley tour but it was worth every penny. These guys don't talk about just the tourist spots, they take you into the neighborhoods and tell you the inside stories of Albuquerque that a tourist doesn't learn when they're only... More
