      I didn’t get to have the experience. I was told that I had to get on the trolley at Edley’s barbecue but after waiting nearly an hour it never showed up. I didn’t get to experience the tour. Perhaps due to the festival they made changes or stopped running. Either way I would like a refund since I was not able to do the tour.

      The worst trip ever

      Jacquilyn_L, Nov 2024
      I arrived in Franklin because I wanted to tour the city for my birthday. I was not given any information on where I should park or start the tour. I had to ask citizens on the street who had no idea what I was talking about. The lady at the book store helped me to get to the location I need to be at. I waited for about 35 minutes on the bus which arrived and quickly left me standing on there. So no I did not have a great time and my birthday plans were ruined.
