Lots of details and fun. Had a great time. Left Dealey Plaza at 1045 so that we could stop at the Farmers Market for lunch and then walked around for a bit. Perfect timing.

Great way to get the lay of the land. Dena was very clear and personable in giving the tour while driving the trolley. Was able to get a good overview of Dallas and save some money on Uber rides. 5 stars for Dena!

      Not what I was used to.

      Edie_S, Mar 2026
      Very limited signage… unaware of stops if you were to hop off. The driver ran every 90 min… not the advertised 15 minutes telling us there was 1 driver for the day! Just not like other hop on hop off bus tours I’ve been on in the major cities.

      Response from Host, Mar 2026

      Our trolleys run every 90 min. We do not advertise 15 min. Dallas doesn't have near as many visitors as major cities like NYC or Chicago. We have discovered 90 min is perfect amount of time to hop off and visit a museum, have lunch etc then hop on the next trolley and your tour continues

      The experience was awesome. The tour guide gave a detailed account of each stop. She was awesome, and enjoyed.

      Geneva_S, Mar 2026
      Dena was great. She was very knowledgeable about Dallas. She kept the tour interesting. We enjoyed it and learned a lot that we didn’t know

      Start early

      Carrie_P, Mar 2026
      If you want to take advantage of the hop on hop off aspect, start early in the day. I think it only makes 4 trips in the day, not the every 20/30 minutes like most hop on hop offs.

      Great tour and experience...

      Nalini_S, Mar 2026
      Great tour and experience for someone who hasn’t visited Dallas before. Dena is a great host and very friendly.

      Great way to discover Dallas - very easy - easy to hop off and on - sound was good and driver was funny

      Best day tour

      Catherine_H, Feb 2026
      Driver, Dana, was very friendly and had a ton of stories about all the places she drove us by. 90 minutes at each stop to enjoy the experiences.

      Really good tour and...

      Tracy_G, Feb 2026
      Really good tour and great detailed information from our driver, Dina (forgive me if I’ve remembered her name incorrectly). Highly recommend

      Good overview of Dallas

      Kathleen_F, Feb 2026
      Very informative in a short amount of time our driver let us know the exact schedule to stay on track for our day.

      These are not complaints,...

      Kimberly_N, Feb 2026
      These are not complaints, just FYI. There is only 1 trolley so time in tickets are set. It comes around every 90 mins to each stop so if you hop off, you can’t hop on for 90 mins. The guide was super friendly and knowledgeable. I learned a lot about Dallas for someone from Dallas.

      Awesome

      Nikhil_N, Feb 2026
      Fun to explore all the best bits of Dallas. Dina was a great guide. She explained everything really well and has a great sense of humour.

      Fun

      Karen_M, Jan 2026
      Great tour and very interesting. Good ideas of things to see. A fun time for everyone. Thank you to all.

      Very disappointed touring Dallas

      Linda_B, Jan 2026
      The driver was very nice but when the tour started she seems robotic. I didn't feel we could ask questions without interrupting her rehearsed speech. I was very bored and thought the tour around Dallas would have been more interesting. The homelessness, and the trash around everywhere made it a horrible experience.

      Our driver, Deanna, was so amazing! She was a font of knowledge and so very funny!!! We learned so much about the history of Dallas!

      Tim_K, Jan 2026
      Excellent driver and knowledgeable host...we thoroughly enjoyed the tour, sites and historical narrative!

      Improvements needed

      Lauren_B, Dec 2025
      The tour guide seemed to be very enthusiastic and informative but, unfortunately, due to the loud fan on the trolley ceiling, none of us (there were 8 in our party) could hear what was being said. So it was basically a drive through the city without little or no explanation. A great concept but the trolley design needs to be updated.

      It's so informative. My...

      It's so informative. My family loved it. She really knew how to tell story. She's so knowledgeable. Because of this tour now I knew more about Dallas Texas.

      Excellent Dallas Touring Experience

      Left and Lost

      Kendra_H, Nov 2025
      Our driver left us at the first stop. There was no way to communicate nor did the driver blow the horn as they said they would. Called customer service and someone was supposed to call me back but I haven’t heard from them yet.

      Response from Host, Nov 2025

      We are sorry that you left your belongings on the trolley, however the trolley has to stay on schedule with the other passengers wanting to take their tour. We cannot come back in the middle of a tour because of a passenger leaving something in a seat.

      Alma_G, Nov 2025
      Hop on off tour is a great idea. I recently did this tour. Many stops along the way. If you stay on the tour it goes all around in 90 min. You can hop off at any stop and hop back on in 90 min. Stops are all in a small radius. Lots of information, but audio is not the best. Maybe that’s why Dina shushed us one or twice. Honestly people were upset when she did that, including me. On the other hand Dina gave us all a lot of information and had us laughing a few times.

      Linda_B, Nov 2025
      Tour guide, Deena, was awesome. Very knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor! Made the experience enjoyable and entertaining!

      Learned alot about Dallas History

      Judith_G, Oct 2025
      Very I informative and enjoyable. Went to all the places of interest. It was quiet with not many onboard. Lisa was great.

      My tour was canceled because the tour guide became ill. I had a very important friend from out of town & we both were looking forward to the tour.

      Response from Host, Oct 2025

      I'm sorry that you guys didn't get to do the tour, but the driver/tour guide was very ill and could not operate the tour. Please remove this 1 star review as we have no control over illness.

      Boring tour. Not with the price.

      Ginny_O, Oct 2025
      Not with the price. Felt it was boring. Just going around in circles. Not really covering too much of interest.

      Response from Host, Oct 2025

      I'm sorry you did not find interest in Dallas. I'm wondering if you took our tour as the trolley doesn't go around in circles, if travels 12 miles on the tour.

      We enjoyed the tour -...

      Leslie_F, Oct 2025
      We enjoyed the tour - except the sound system was not great on the bus and we really coudn't hear the tour guide at all. We tried sitting in different places on the bus to hear better and it didn't help. The guide seemed very knowledgable - we just couldn't hear her. :(

      A Good Use of Your Time!

      Pam_S, Sep 2025
      Just the right length to get a good overview of the different areas in downtown to help decide what you want to go back and do. And with enough facts and tips to feel like you learned a little of Dallas history!

      Great overview

      Christine_W, Sep 2025
      It’s a great overview to get to know the city, and some of the history. Perfect for travelers coming to the area for the first time, or people who just moved to the area. to help them Get to know their surroundings better.
