Had a great time with this tour. It takes about 2 & half to 3 hours to do a full loop depending g on the day & time. We were there on a Friday that had 3 different sporting events going on so traffic was busy. The trolley drivers are professional & work off of a script as I heard 3 differe t tour drivers with the same lines, but each brought their own style. Relatively cheap tickets to be able to go around Boston & tour all the major tourist areas & you can get on & off at the stops as much as you want. Highly recommend doing. You can see Old North Church, Paul Rever's house, USS Constitution battleship to name a few.

We took the sunset tour over the weekend. It was the best tour ever. It was really great seeing the city at nighttime. We got lots of really great pictures. The trolley driver was so informed and was a great tour guide.If I’m ever in Boston again, I will only use this company. We used a different company there over the week we was there and we was left at a stop during the day. We had to walk back to our hotel after sitting there for over a hour waiting. After we got back to hotel that company didn’t even have their booth up anymore. So take it from me only use Old Trolley town and not the red tour bus one.You get what you pay for.

Loved the summer nights tour. Not as much history as we hoped but so cool to see Boston at sunset and see so much activity and cool places around Boston. Could do without the musical accompaniment with the driver’s dialog and no way to control this but a group of 24 people not paying attention to the driver and talking loudly was a big distraction. Since you reserve in advance, you cannot avoid that. Did a Friday night and between seeing cool restaurants, thriving city life, and a few neighborhoods we want to visit, it was a great option for a first night in Boston.

Convenient way to tour Boston attractions. Getting an entertaining yet informative driver guide with a good audio setup is key to an enjoyable touring experience and keeping chatter to a minimum. Luckily you can switch buses at different stops through the day. Check out their attractions deals.

Questions & Answers

How long does this tour last? I want to see Boston, but I'm on a time limit with dental convention.

Ingrid Clark | Sep 6, 2017
Nick Mayer | Sep 6, 2017

To run the full circle is only 1-2 hours. But you can jump on or off whenever you want. It is the best way to see specific sites, even if you can't explore the stops.

Yes public parkings are available at $50 per day. Best to get one in downtown to be close to the trolley stops

Does the tour stop by Fenway Park?

Chris Deloge | Aug 29, 2022
Amy Marek | Aug 29, 2022

A couple weeks ago it stopped a few blocks away from Fenway. However, the closing of the subway line might have even changed that. Go on their website to see if they have a posting of the changes.

WHen arriving in Boston on a cruise ship, where is the best place to board the trolley if you have online tickets?

Mary McCarty | Sep 6, 2019
Mike Long | Sep 6, 2019

Exit the Black Falcon terminal. Turn Left. Walk past the parking area. There is an orange and green metal booth, where the trolleys will pick you up

I have a double stroller which is foldable, for my twin toddlers. Will i be able to carry it in the trolley?

Janitha Perera | Sep 6, 2019
James Luhmann | Sep 6, 2019

I think you'll have to give them a call. When we went in October it was so crowded I don't think even a regular stroller would have fit.

Are the trolleys wheelchair accessible ?

Janitha Perera | Sep 6, 2019
Mike Long | Sep 6, 2019

Call ahead for faster service. We do have wheelchair accessable trolleys

What about parking?

Tina Chambers | Sep 6, 2019
Deborah Armstrong | Sep 6, 2019

Old town trolley has stops throughout the city, so it depends on where you are starting or if you driving into Boston where you should park. If your beginning the tour at the aquarium don't park near there it's a tourist trap you going to pay $35-$40, but near post office square it's more affordable $9- $15.

Is there a tour to the old nothing church and that area besides the walking tour? Is that the freedom trail?

Ruth Haste | Sep 6, 2018
Nick Mayer | Sep 6, 2018

The freedom trail goes by it, assuming you mean the Old North Church. But bus tour has stops close to church, that entire little Italy section is right by wharf and aquarium and stuff.

I'm coming into the North End train station and will need to return there. Where can I pick up the trolley? Where is the final trolley stop of the day?

SUE WATKINS | Sep 6, 2018
Nick Mayer | Sep 6, 2018

Look up the stops on their website, chances are they have one close to you. And the last pickup is at 5pm, at which point they will take you as far as the stop you got on (round trip)

Planning a family trip with my two teen boys after their graduation, before they leave to college. Do you think this is a good fit for us. We want to see everything, We only plan to be there for 2 day and We love history.

Elizabeth deleon | Sep 6, 2017
Corey Reynolds | Sep 6, 2017

Yes! Staying on the trolley for the whole trip takes at least 90 minutes. So start in the morning and you will get to see most of the sights, stopping as needed. Let the trolley driver worry about traffic and the confusing streets.
