Fun adventure in SRQ - I went on the Art Trolley Tour with a few friends, although we were all local residents the tour highlighted areas we hadn’t been to. It was well organized, fun, and interesting to visit lots of galleries around town. Tammy and her crew made the experience easy and enjoyable, we even learned some history of SRQ. I had family visit for the holidays and they did the Christmas tour and loved it too. I highly recommend the trolley or those visiting SRQ and for locals who want a new perspective and a fun adventure! I’ll definitely be back for a different tour.

Interesting history…learned a lot - Our guide, Jon, interspersed his own family stories living in the area along with the local and historical history of the founders, the Ringling family and others, and stories about the town which personalized it and made it interesting.

Fun Valentines Evening - We had a great few hours on the Art Crawl Trolley - visited many galleries that we pass by on a daily basis but never stopped into. Everyone at Discover Sarasota were so friendly and helpful that it makes we want to volunteer for some of their trolley tours. AND we learned about the Lime Light District ! I have lived in Sarasota for 8 years and never heard about that area - what a gem. Thank you all for a fun Valentines evening. Elizabeth & Doug

Fun filled experience - What a great time we had on our tour with 2 other couples. The hosts were so much fun and had a wealth of information to share along the way. Their interaction with the patrons was incredible. There were so many galleries to explore and a variety of art . We never would have discovered them on our own. We enjoyed the freedom of grabbing the next trolley at our own pace. Hours of fun for only $10. What a deal!

Fun evening on the art crawl - We had a great experience on the art crawl. We enjoyed going into galleries we would not otherwise see. We found the gallery representatives to be very hospitable and informative. Most galleries offered snacks and drinks which was a nice touch. The docents that were working in each zone were very helpful and friendly. We enjoyed hearing our trolley guides Jerry and Kathy tell us about the art in Sarasota. They always include some humor! Everyone in our group had a wonderful evening. We all felt the $10 ticket provided a big bang for the buck. It’s exciting to see how the art community in Sarasota has flourished and is continuing to grow. The city has become very vibrant! It was fun to be out and about with other art lovers.

Book early art crawl - Three of the art galleries were closed- one out of business. We were on the 6 pm tour and it seemed they closed at 5. Perhaps this tour should not be offered after 4 pm.

Underwhelming and misinformed - Receptionist advised we start at stop #6. We boarded the trolley and proceeded to #6. We viewed the art then grabbed the next trolley . It took us back to the cottage at 6:45 where were were told the last trolley just left . I was under the impression the last trolley returned at 7:45 to the cottage. One stop and pd full price. We also did not spend an extraordinary amount of time. Maybe 15 minutes. Disappointed.

Very poor experience. Would not recommend this tour. - We had a terrible experience. Only got to 2 of the 6 stops because the waits for trolley were so long and had to Uber back to parking because after 45 minutes of waiting for trolley we had to give up.
