It was a wonderful experience. Our tour guide Craig was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We learned a lot about the history of Chattanooga. The train tour was also very interesting, especially when they showed us how they turn the engine around when it gets to the end of the line. To think that 4 men use to turn the engine by hand was unbelievable considering its weight.

The trolley ride around town was amazing. We went to ride the train, waited for awhile and they announced it was canceled! Very disappointed that we didn't get to ride that day.

If you're good with listening to paint dry, this is the trip for you.
The first section was the trolley ride throughout town. The driver talked incessantly for constantly 1 - 1 1/2 hours. I am astonished he could remember all his stories. That was the most impressive part of all. The seats were all wood & extremely hard + uncomfortable.
The 2nd section was the train ride. Yes, there was a different man talking, but fortunately, it was a short ride to a railway museum.
The good part was that we all got off and had the option to go listen to another series of stories or walk around the antique engines. Enjoyable!!!!
Unfortunately, we had to ride the Trolley back to where we started & listen to NONSTOP Craig for another almost hour. So glad for it to be over.

Thank you for the high praise. We strive to be the tour in Chattanooga that provides the most information about Chattanooga.

The trolley was comfortable and the driver/narrator was good. His stories and information were enjoyable, but he needs new equipment as it was hard to hear and understand him. The train ride was fun with plenty of room and a good narrator. The stop at the train terminal was interesting and it felt good to support training. The experience was easy for us old folks as well as the young kids on the ride with us

The old south and history, the driver can talk about it all day. He was very pleasant and so is his wife and ferret. I took my service dog Wilbur, and he enjoyed the trip with some family members too. It was pretty neat watching the train turn 360 degrees. I didn’t know it existed. Julie Carter

Tour was okish but was completely spoilt by being so uncomfortable .No way could I ever think of a trolley tour again
Leroy_P, Jul 2024
The guide of the trolley Craig was fantastic. He was very informative on the history of the city and railways. 🚃. I recommend this tour to railway enthusiasts as well as your regular history buffs.
Ronald_B, Jul 2024
We had a great time and highly recommend this tour event. Our trolley tour was detailed and thorough. It covered the southside, downtown, and eastside of Chattanooga highlighting historical background and points of interest. Craig is a well spoken and knowledgeable guide. The train ride, historic depot and museum, and engine maintenance facility were very interesting. The train ride was well narrated and comfortable. The Trolley-Train event is well worth the cost and your time! You will enjoy it! Thank you Craig & Donna Lee, you were outstanding hosts and guides.

First time in Chattanooga and we wanted to get a lay of the land, history and things to do and see here. This was the way to start!. Craig had a plethora of information!!!! We did the trolley and railway tour. The train was a great experience also! This is a must-do tour!!
Brian_R, Mar 2024
The actual train ride with "in costume" workers brought the experience to life. Also, visiting the repair shop and seeing the old steam engines up close was impressive.
Our tour guide, Craig, was knowledgeable and friendly. Great trip overall.
Katie_L, Mar 2024
Seeing a large part of the city. Craig was full of information, shared lots of history and current points of interest
Sonia_W, Mar 2024
We had a lovely day with Craig who has an astounding memory for facts regarding the history of Chattanooga. He took us all around the city. The best part was the train journey and visit to the turntable. Fascinating stories throughout.
Clay_E, Feb 2024
Craig and his wife were awesome! This tour included fascinating history of Chattanooga and a locomotive ride. The small scale train models were my favorite.
The trolly was great, though a tad uncomfortable. My only suggestion is for the trolly to take a little better scenic route, if possible.

Nice excursion with a great story teller. The conductor shared a lot of Chattanooga history on the way.
