    Our tour guide, Daniel.
    Kara H.

    Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Daniel was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable about the history of the area and it's various "haunts". The very last story of the tour, the little boy possibly lost at sea, was the one that got me the most as Daniel imagined his mother walking around the waterfront asking "Have you seen my boy?" That, more than the supernatural part of it, made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. The Wabanaki tales he told after the tour were also fascinating and eerie. The walking part is not onerous; it's mostly flat with a few uneven pavement/brick areas. There is an opportunity to walk through the cemetery and it's very dark, so bring a small flashlight or be prepared to use your phone's light. Highly recommend this tour. If you go in October as we did, wear warm clothing (layers) and bring a rain jacket or an umbrella in case it starts raining during the tour, as it did during ours.

    I've been on many ghost tours, and story-wise this was a great one. Daniel was a captivating story-teller, and the Wabanaki stories were so interesting to hear. Bring a coat in October, it gets chilly. There are also not a lot of places to sit, and the tour does take the full 90 minutes if not more. You're getting your money's worth. It's not too bad walking-wise since Bar Harbor itself is pretty small, but the first trek from the Abbe to the first haunted location feels pretty far. It's also hard to hear the stories when you get there over the zoom of cars flying past us. If I could change one thing, I'd tell the first group of stories at the Abbe house, point out where the house is on the way to the church/cemetery, and let people make the hike there on their own time.

    I thought our guide, Daniel, was a top notch story teller. He walked us thru the town and told us spooky stories of the past. We stopped at various spots including a haunted cottage, cemetery, the downtown theater and along the water. He dressed up in character and was very engaging. Highly recommend!

    Daniel is a fantastic storyteller. We learned much about both the ghost's & history of Bar Harbor- a night well spent.

    Lots of history learned from our wonderful guide, Gigi. It was fun to hear stories about the town and some of its oldest buildings.

    Oli's is a prominent and reliable tour operator in Bar Harbor, and gives narrated tours of Acadia…read moreNational Park and downtown Bar Harbor. We chose the trolley for its old fashioned charm and a more open view, over taking another popular tour by bus given by a different company. I booked a 2.5-hour tour for my family during our cruise stop - the boarding location was super convenient (55 West St.), right by the tendor port at Town Pier, and the check-in process was organized and a breeze. This tour includes 15-minute stops at three of the most popular sites in the park: Thunder Hole, Jordan Pond, and top of Cadillac Mountain. The stops are too brief for anything other than a quick walk-through to take some photos, but that was enough for my sight-seeing family. The park is huge so most of the time is spent driving and taking in the occasional breathtaking views along the coastline. The first time I visited this park (a much more thorough and extensive, multi-day trip where we camped inside the park and hiked all the most difficult trails that rewarded us with the most stunning views), the majesty of the landscape continuously awed me. There were fewer such moments on the tour due to the route and time crunch, but we were entertained by the excellent narration and stories about the park and the town by our driver Jim, a very knowledgeable local who's quippy to boot. They also offer a 4-hour tour that includes an extra site (Sieur de Monts Spring), with 30-minute stops at each location instead of 15, and is for age 12+ only. If you want to see Acadia park but are limited on time, don't have a car, don't want to deal with the logistics of planning a park itinerary, are mobility-challenged or don't wish to walk/hike too much, or simply like to enjoy the ride and casually explore the park while listening to some informative stories, I heartily recommend Oli's Trolley for your excursion! They're very professional and well run. Be sure to also check out their excellent gift shop nearby (1 West St.) which has a cute and well-curated selection of merchandise that are reasonably priced. Tickets often sell out early - especially during high tourist season and on days when cruise passengers land - so definitely book well in advance!

    Over all worth the cost and enjoyable. We took the four hour tour into Acadia National Park, 30…read moreminutes of driving, 30 minutes at one of four stops along the way with full driver narration. I actually learned a few things along the way. MAJOR BOUNES, no hassle with parking, the parking situation in the park to stupid, cars and bikes everywhere, take the trolley.
