Tour guide was enthusiastic and projected a good voice for all to hear on the trolly. Definitely better to sit on the right side. I wouldn't say I would do it again but if you are traveling with someone with mobility issues and can not walk, this is a good option. You see 5 to 7 sights, 2 hour in duration, don't get out of trolley.

Humorous driver. While we did learn a few odd tidbits, not completely sold on the value of this tour.

A very good "lay of the land" tour to get to know Anchorage. Great tour if you've never been here before. Our driver was great about stopping along Earthquake Park just in case there was a moose, but there wasn't that day, but he tried! Nice tour.

It was enclosed so we stayed warm. You get to see and hear about places around Anchorage that you wouldn’t otherwise get to learn about.

Heather_P, Sept 2025
We were the last on the trolley, so sat in the very back seat, but still had great views out the window. Nothing blocked. Cyrus was a hoot, and the information he shared about Anchorage was fascinating! Highly recommend if coming into town. It’s an enjoyable way to spend an hour.
Agnes_N, Sept 2025
Not able to take pictures with places that we pass by. The ride was a bit fast. Why is it too much for ride that you can get off the trolley and take pictures?
Tracci_D, Sept 2025
