Be prepared for the cold, if the temps are low.

Holiday Lights fun - We had a great time. It was wet, but we stayed dry under the tarps (you can still see out) Had some hot chocolate too. We enjoyed our driver as well.

Holiday Fun With Friends - The trolley ride was a lot of fun and our driver, Poppy was a lot of fun as well. As for the lights we saw, I was expecting something a little different, but the Columbus Commons area was by far the best.
Our group of 10 plans on doing this again next year! I hope it's not as cold as it was this year!

Trolley Pub Holiday Lights Tour Columbus - This was such a fun experience. Joe was a great host and we had an amazing time. The holiday lights were beautiful and for being a cold evening we were very comfortable on the Trolley. There were blankets and the sides of the Trolley were covered. I highly recommend and would love to do it again.

Fun Experience! - My friends and I had a blast on the holiday lights trolley tour! Our guide, Shelby, was WONDERFUL! She was so fun, informative, hospitable, and kind. Going through the short north and downtown was super fun. The stops could be a little better. One stop was the Scioto Mile which didn't have much to see, especially now that Milestone 229 is closed. The other stop, Columbus Commons, was really beautiful and fun with the lights. However, the bar that was recommended was subpar. We went to The Goat instead which was fun but we were rushed by the time we got there. The other thing I wish was different was that we didn't really have to pedal. There was no resistance so that made the pedaling a little annoying if anything. I might be alone in this, but I kind of wanted to do some work, at least a little. Other than that, we had so much fun! I would highly recommend it.
