    We went to the visitor center on 4th and they told us about a discount and the tour. We tried to book the same day but all the tours were sold out. Adam was our driver guide and he told us stories and jokes about Louisville and drove us around town safely. Book at least a few Dey’s in advance! Great way to see and get an overview of the city in 90 minutes. I highly recommend this tour. Thank you Adam for a great tour!

    Adam was informative and fun! We had a great time on the tour and learned so much about Louisville. Be sure to also check out the Trolley gift shop located in the Galt House hotel operated by his sweet wife! She's a phenomenal singer as well! 😉

    This was my last stop in Louisville before flying back home to California. Adam was super informative, a natural comedian, and sincerely kind. My group really loved the tour and highly recommend it for those wanting to explore Louisville and nearby historical points of interest. If I'm ever in town again, this will be a must stop on my list of things to do in Louisville!

    This was a fun tour. I've lived in Louisville my whole life, and I learned so much, which surprised me. I took residents from my place of work and they absolutely loved it! They had THE BEST time. This is worth doing if you're visiting or wanting to explore the city.

    I was recommended to go on this tour by the Louisville Visitor Center and I’m glad that I did so. Our guide Travis was professional and hospital, who knew Louisville like the back of his hand. He had awesome fun facts about the city and enlightened us on the history of this historic town. We only had a day in Louisville, so this tour was amazing in that it covered the important landmarks of Louisville I.e Old Louisville with its old Victorian houses, Downtown, UoL campus, the Brown Hotel, West Main Street and a quick pit stop at the Churchill Downs to grab a quick souvenir. Definitely recommend this tour to anyone who is running short on time but would still like to go around Louisville.

    Jump on that Trolley! While staying at The Galt House hotel, I enjoyed my lunch outside when I noticed a cute little Trolley just out front. Being from San Francisco, California, I was curious. The next ride was leaving soon and the tour was only 90 min long. The tour guide was hilarious. I fell in love with Louisville on that ride. It helped me decide how to spend the rest of my time in Louisville, by showing us the area, the best restaurants and the race track.

    I can not say enough about how glad I am that we did this tour. Traveling with kids that aren't as interested in walking around can get annoying and this was a great way to see a lot with little complaints. Adam was very, very knowledgeable and knew his stuff. He talked through a headset and made sure to include information the entire 90 minute tour. I was also impressed with how well he drove the Trolley. There were some tight spaces and he did great. Adam made sure to engage everyone as they came on board, along where they were from and making them feel welcomed. I would definitely recommend this tour. The price is excellent and it was worth every penny.

    We had more fun than we were expecting on the Louisville Trolley Tour. It was probably a highlight of our trip actually! Members of our party live in Kentucky, including in Louisville, and everyone learned something they didn't know about the city and its history. Our tour guide was wonderful and definitely pointed out lots of interesting sites that we would not have seen or thought to visit otherwise. Our group included adults, college age young adults, and small children (4-8yo) - all of us had a great time!

    Enjoyed Travis! He’s funny yet informational! Great picture taker as well. Great driver and great personality. Answered most of our questions and was honest enough to say he didn’t know an answer! Appreciated that! Will recommend this tour to all my friends and hope they get Travis!!

    We had a great time with this tour. You go around downtown Louisville, and our driver Travis was fabulous! While driving, he was telling us these awesome facts and visit several interesting places. We definitely recommend it!

    We had a great time on the haunted trolley tour! They were friendly and shared cool stories. She did a fantastic job ignoring constant remarks from a couple individuals on the trolly who felt the need to continue to try to interject with their own comments and stories. We stopped at Molly Malone’s and had time to stretch our legs and sit in on some stories there as well. We recommend the trolley to others!

    Booked with the idea of seeing a good deal of Louisville. Travis was absolutely amazing! My family enjoyed the wealth of knowledge he shared, the many sites, and the dinner recommendation for Japanese/Mexican fusion. Make sure you make this a priority if you are new to the city!

    The ghost tour was so much fun! We enjoyed learning the inside scoop on Louisville’s oldest buildings and their stories. She is a wonderful story teller with just enough theatrics to keep you intrigued!

    Adam and the Trolley De’Ville Tour were absolutely amazing!! We are from Louisville and decided to book for my dad’s birthday and it was so much fun. We highly recommend whether you are a local or visiting the city. We will for sure do this again.

  • 5/5 Keith C. 1 year ago on Google
    A great way to learn about the city and find great places for future visits. Kudos to Adam for being a great guide and showing us all the great places Louisville has to offer.

    Loved the tour, Specially, we love Adam, He was awesome during the tour. We learned a lot about Louisville city from this tour. You definitely should take this tour during your Louisville visit.

  • 5/5 Deborah R. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a great tour with Adam - he is sooo knowledgeable about Louisville. We learned so much and saw the highlights. The trolley was comfortable and not at all crowded. Adam encourage questions. Great time -I highly recommend it.

  • 5/5 Carolyn M. 7 months ago on Google
    We (2 adults and a younger teen boy) took the last tour of the day, with Travis as our driver and guide. He was an excellent guide, very engaging, and we all really enjoyed the history, fun facts, and tips on other things to do around the city. We saw and learned so many things we would have missed otherwise. If you are on the fence about whether or not to take this tour: do it! It's worth every penny, and actually quite affordable, considering all the ground it covers. It's a great way to visit to Louisville.

  • 5/5 Bridgette M. 6 months ago on Google
    I highly recommend this tour. Our guide was entertaining and informative. The trolley was very clean and comfortable. The sound system is excellent, you can hear from every seat.

    My fiance and I went on the Boo Lou Trolly Tour and had the best time! Adam, our driver for the evening greeted us and made us feel very welcome and appreciated. Our tour guide, Joni was friendly, very welcoming, and was a fabulous storyteller that had the whole group hanging on every word. If you love history, Louisville history, ghost stories and spooky legends of the area this is the tour for you! Highly recommended, especially during the Halloween Season!

  • 5/5 Sallyanne C. 2 years ago on Google
    We took a tour on the Trolley at 3pm Oct 23, 2021. Adam was our driver. He is very knowledgeable about the areas he took us through. He made the tour a lot of fun. We would definitely ride with him again in the future. The tour was great. I am always driving and don't get to see things so loved letting someone else do the driving and tell me about the sites we were seeing. Especially liked stopping at Churchill Downs. Well worth the cost of the ticket!!

  • 5/5 Phil M. 8 months ago on Google
    The tour was awesome! We really enjoyed learning some cool and interesting facts about Louisville!! Our tour guide was knowledgable and had a great personality and sense of humor. We would highly recommend this tour to any of our friends who visit Louisville. Thanks again and hope to be back one day.

    We were a very small group, but Joanie and Adam kept us engaged and kept the tour interesting and our group entertained. It was terrific to see all the sights in Louisville from a trolley and extra points for being able to grab a pint at an authentic haunted Irish pub. Would definitely recommend this tour for a great evening of fun, history and a few scares!

  • 4/5 nandan v. 4 years ago on Google
    It was nice experience. Our guide cum driver Mr.Adam was awesome and he explained everything about the Louisville. Best one was to start with how we should pronounce Louisville. Though most of the routes were familiar for me as my office is near to fourth street but didn't know history of those places. We had a good tour of 75 minutes on the trolley and interactive one. People too were nicer. Only stop is at Churchill Downs for few minutes to take pics..got some good info about Louisville today after staying here for more than 3-4 months .. worth a tour .. I also got online coupon for discount which Adam gave instantly. Remember it's just a tour around the city.

  • 5/5 StaceyBob C. 8 months ago on Google
    Tour was worth the price. Adam was informative from the history to local food and drinks. (Milkshake at Sidebar was awesome!). Our tour happened to be during a rain storm but it was still good and we could see everything.

  • 5/5 Anne H. 1 year ago on Google

He shared lots of insights and even had a few restaurant recommendations!! 10 out of 10 👍👍 Highly recommend it!

    While attending a GFWC International Convention, we were able to take a wonderful trolley city tour with Adam. He is the best tour guide. Very knowledgeable about Louisville and a very nice person. Would recommend his tour to everyone.

  • 5/5 Stephanie Y. 1 year ago on Google
    Adam is very knowledgeable and friendly! The tour was a nice way to get an overview of Louisville as well as some local recommendations.

  • 5/5 SHANON M. 9 months ago on Google
    This tour was great. The guide, Adam, is a local to Louisville. He gives great historical references, restaurant recommendations, and bits of very interesting information. I think it would be hard to pack much more info into a 1.5 hour tour. AWESOME!

  • 5/5 Aaron Barbee (. 1 year ago on Google
    I'll call it a 4.1 or 4.2, rounded up to 5. Doubling back on routes was a bit peculiar, as I feel like seeing the same roads/sights could be avoided with an amended route. One, big circle with different roads or streets would be nice, rather than criss-crossing what we already saw. That being said, Adam was very helpful on the phone (needed parking suggestions) and extremely informational, warm, educational and entertaining during our tour. He's a true professional and clearly knows what he's doing - both with the tour and somehow navigating that trolley through some of those narrower streets. Hearing and seeing more about Louisville than I previously knew was cool. Stopping at Churchill Downs was a nice touch; never been there, so kind of cool to say I'd been there now. Don't be afraid to ask questions; Adam answered several for the folks on our tour. Parking suggestions: it's very hard to tell on Google maps, but the trolley is right across of the hotel entrance. A garage is on the hotel entrance side (opposite of the trolley). There is a ramp/road/street that goes DOWN (a hidden/sneaky underside parking area ($) is available down there on your left). Or, if you stay on that same street level that the trolley is on, just drive past it - like you're going towards the river - and there's a lot on your left at the end of that building.

    We had a ball on this 90 minute tour! Our tour guide was super knowledgeable and made it so much fun! Good times and I recommend it! 😁

  • 5/5 T H. 1 year ago on Google
    Adam is a great guide of the city very informative, highly recommended if you have kids and don’t have a lot of extra time to see everything on your own, plus you will learn the history of the area!

  • 5/5 Mindy S. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a great time and enjoyed our tour! We bought tickets in advance online. When we boarded the trolley (just look for it in front of the hotel where the website says), Adam had our names on his list and checked us off - that was all that was needed! Adam was friendly and knowledgeable. He pointed out historic places as well as recommending restaurants and generally introducing the city. We would do this again!
