Party on the Trolley

Come check us out! Our historic “party” trolley car #1602 is 104 years old this year and ready to host your special event. When you book a party, your group gets its very own trolley car for the ride and a uniformed tour guide-trolley operator. There’s room on the trolley for cake, ice cream or other food service and big windows for viewing the beautiful scenery. Included in the price is extra time before and after to set up and clean up, so everything will be just right. Our trolley cars are heated and we can accommodate parties and special events throughout the year. Plan to book at least three weeks in advance, dates fill up fast! Click here to learn more.
