A Must-Do in Jefferson - The trolley tour was the highpoint of a lovely day in Jefferson. The driver had an encyclopedic knowledge of the very interesting history of the town; told many entertaining local stories; and, had enough corny puns and jokes for a comedy club open-mic night.

A must on your trip to Jefferson! - Excellent. I learned so much about Jefferson I didn't know and I'm formally from the area. Loved Mr. Tommy and his stories. Would definitely recommend even of you've been to Jefferson before.

Absolute Must in Jefferson! - I had an excellent experience on the trolley tour! The host, Tommy, was incredibly knowledgeable and made the entire trip fun and engaging. It’s clear he loves what he does—his energy, enthusiasm, and passion for the history and stories he shared made the tour unforgettable. We started with a brief tour of the inn, then hopped on the trolley for an hour of fascinating, fun-filled facts. Tommy was truly entertaining from start to finish. I'm from Texas and had no idea that Jefferson was the largest inland port in the US during the 1800's. The trolley itself was comfortable and air-conditioned, which made the ride even better. This is an absolute must-do when visiting Jefferson!

Fun time - Knowledgeable and friendly tour guide. I just wish time/opportunity to take photos was provided. The tour is an hour but does not cover much mileage wise. you could easily walk to 90 percent of the sites
