We took the short tour - the trip and leader were excellent. A must for new visitors to Cleveland - need to get better sign in location with the Aquarium people lined up everywhere. More

Looking for a cheap way to learn a lot more about Cleveland without spending a ton of time? This is the way to go. We had the pleasure of having Jim as our tour guide. This guy really knew his stuff and was such a gentleman. He took the time to learn the names and home towns of all the... More

My husband and I both grew up in the Cleveland area but had never done a tour of Cleveland so decided to take the 2 hour Lolly tour. I'm so glad we did because we got to learn so much about the city and see places we never knew existed! The tour takes you through downtown, Ohio City and University... More

I was only going to be in Cleveland a day and wanted to see as much as possible, so I decided to do this since it's basically the only option. There is no "hop-on/hop-off tour bus, Grayline tour bus, or similar things you find in other cities. I chose the 2-hour tour to see as much as possible. I recommend... More

I went with my boyfriend on Saturday morning for the 2-hour tour and had an excellent time. Beautiful weather, sunny and cool, definitely helped make the experience enjoyable, although you could still do this on a rainy afternoon. We actually both live pretty close to Cleveland, but did it anyway and learned a lot about the city. It would be... More

Look at their website for help with the GPS. Once you get down to the neighborhood, look for their signs and you'll be alright. Get there when they tell you to, even a few minutes earlier if you want to choose your seat! We took the two hour tour. We moved to the area (well, the suburbs) 7 years ago,... More

Hard to find on your GPS; be sure to call for directions. Very knowledgeable and personable attendant; there were only 10 people on the trolley so it was very easy to hear and ask questions; highly recommend; one hour was sufficient. More

Took this trolly ride over memorial day weekend - WOW, who knew there was this much City history? Two hours might be more than you can do - and it will definitley be more than your kids could handle. The trolley is fun, and seeing the different areas and hearing the stories is great, but it's a LOT of info.... More

If you're looking for an introduction to the city this tour is for you. We took the 2 hour tour and were very happy with it. Bottom line, it's like every other open window trolley tour you have ever taken. More

For the love of God, if you book this tour and you can spare the time, book the TWO hour tour! We went on a rainy April afternoon, but it was a great way to spend it, we were dry and someone else did the driving. The two hour tour includes a 15 min stop at the Rockerfellar Botanical Gardens...
