Outstanding 90-minute tour experience. Well worth the time to learn about Pittsburgh from many aspects as a first time visitor. Brian, our guide, was outstanding. Dan, our driver, was great. Well worth the fee! Comfortable and informative ride. read more

See all

Excellent tour today! We had Michael. I am a Pittsburgh native and learned so much about places I've visited all my life. I was surprised at the cursory mention of the Hill District given the other rich neighborhood histories provided. 3 quick facts that could be added (less than 10 secs) Home of America's first EMT service, "Freedom House", which other cities used as a model. Home of August Wilson (mentioned earlier) and where "Fences" was filmed. Made Pittsburgh a real incubator for jazz innovation in the early 20th century. These could easily be added when mentioning the neighborhood while driving by. Would take this tour again for sure. Highly recommended. read more

Excellent tour of Pittsburgh. Showcases the beautiful architecture of the city while sharing facts about the history of the city and people from it. Fantastic for natives and guests alike! Included a ride on the incline which was so special. 10/10 recommend and would do again! read more

Really enjoyed this tour and highly recommend! Great way to see the city of Pittsburgh and learn some really cool and informative fun facts about the bridges and architecture of the city. Both the driver and tour guide were friendly and entertaining. It was just the right length and even included a ride on the incline! If you are in town and looking for something to do, this is definitely a must see. Even during COVID times this tour was excellent and did not disappoint. read more

We used Molly's Trolleys for our wedding in July. The owner, Sue, was easy to work with and made sure to text or call with relevant information. I only rode in one shuttle, but the driver, Rick, was amazing and went above and beyond when we needed to change course. I have heard similar comments from our other guests in the other trolleys. The shuttle itself was beautifully decorated and made the ride fun. Credit is also due to Molly's lead driver (unfortunately didn't get his name) who checked all of the routes to make sure that there would not be any surprises. Highly recommended. read more

My wife and I took our first trip to Pittsburgh and my wife booked us a trip on Molly's Trolleys. If you are headed to the Steel City, or if you live there, Molly's Trolleys is a MUST. But do yourself a favor and try to get Bryan as your tour guide and at the time of this post I cannot recall the driver's name. The two of them were just awesome. . His knowledge of Pittsburgh is just incredible. I am sure that my wife and I are going to do another Pittsburgh trip in the future and I can promise you that we will revisit Molly's Trolleys. The tour was the perfect amount of time. The view from the Duquesne lift was breath taking. read more

We took a tour that was sponsored by the University of Pittsburgh, led by tour guide Brian and driver Christie. It was one of the hottest days of the year, but we thoroughly enjoyed the ride as the sights were pointed out to us, along with funny and interesting stories and "fun facts" about the city of Pittsburgh, which the employees obviously hold close to their hearts. read more

I agree with the other reviews. A must tour especially trying to navigate through the Pittsburg traffic. Unfortunately due to a previous tour running late we didn't get to see all neighborhoods, but we weren't disappointed in what we saw or heard. Our guide was very informed and the driver was highly skilled getting us through downtown traffic. My only recommendation is to have a pickup spot outside of downtown. Parking was challenging on The Strip; finally found a lot at $10.00 per day. read more

I live in Pittsburgh, but took cousins from Utah on a Molly's Trolley tour of Pittsburgh yesterday. The tour guide, Bryan, did a fantastic job. His tour was informative and humorous. It was apparent that he did his research to learn the history of Pittsburgh landmarks. I've taken this tour several times and always learn something new. It's a great tour for locals and those from out of town. read more

Neil and I had a great time last night on the 'Burgh Brew Tour with Molly's Trolleys. The tour started at 5pm at Penn Brewery, then proceeded to East End, Full Pint, and finally Boyd & Bair Vodka distillery. Penn Brewery was cool as usual. We got there a bit early to have a beer and chill at the bar. Happy hour was going on, so 2 pints of beer was $6-- score! The tour started, and our guide gave us a little history about the place in the courtyard. We went back inside and had 3 beer samples (about 8-10oz each), a pierogi and a soft pretzel. The pierogi was delish, and the Penn Dark was the best of the samples. We all hopped on the trolley, and made our way to East End. The trolley is super clean and nice, and we got to do beer samples and trivia on the drive to East End! East End Brewery is a small operation, and they're primarily a growler filling station. I'll write my review of them, but it's a pretty chill place with helpful, hipster staff. Full Pint Brewery is way out in North Versailles. They're a larger operation situated in a big warehouse. They had 6-8 beers on tap, which you could sample or get full pints (hey, a pun!) of. The Rye Imperial Stout, Perc E Bust, and All-In Amber were my favs. We were supposed to get a tour of the brewing facilities, but for unknown reasons, that never happened. We still had fun hanging out with other peeps on the tour and the locals hanging out. Finally, after a pretty long drive, we ended up at Boyd and Blair. B&B are the only vodka distillery in PA, and they run a pretty small operation with only 4 employees. Despite the size, they've been wildly successful, and it was easy to see why after sampling. They make potato vodka from scratch, and we got a tour of how each step is done. It was great to have at least one educational tour on the Trolley, and the owner did a fantastic job answering all of our questions. I'm definitely a fan! We all got back in the Trolley which dropped everyone back off at Penn Brewery. All in all, it was well worth the $75/person for the tour. It made for a great birthday present for my hubby, allowing us to meet new people, taste lots of beers, and be safe while sampling! read more

Honestly the best trolly tour of the city. Worth every penny. Make sure you buy the ticket with the Duquesne lift experience. This is a must do tour to experience the city. You get to see every neighborhood and the tour guides are fabulous. They are entertaining and informative. There's also haunted trolly tours Saturday nights in October and if you get the chance, also do that. Wouldn't miss this tour! read more

My sister hired them to ferry us from her wedding ceremony to the reception and later the reception to our hotel. First, the trolley is really a bus set up to look like an old time trolley. Super cute. Super clean. After the wedding, my sister told me go hold the trolley until we get on it. The boys are going to load up the gifts and carry them down. Ok ok.... I tell the bus driver, please wait, the bridal couple and the parents and some ushers with gifts are coming. I go to the back of the bus. We wait. Mr. Bus Driver all of a sudden decides he's done waiting and pulls out down the parking lot. I was like WHOA WHOA WHOA STOP BACK UP.. The bridal couple's not here. My parents aren't here. THEY"RE THE PEOPLE PAYING YOU back this bus up NOW!!!!.... he did. I almost scared myself how loud and mad I was. But seriously, if you were told to wait, where are you going mister? Hm? Hot date at 11:30 pm? You'll just have to wait, you're a trolley driver we hired to be the designated driver and you need to do your job. So I don't know. I have mixed feelings about Molly's Trolleys. The vehicle was immaculate and clean and and nice and convenient. But the driver didn't follow directions worth a squirrel's ear. And unlike the free Holiday Inn Shuttle, the driver didn't help any girls in heels and long dresses. My Dad helped me a little too late because my heel already punched a hole through the hem and I was hopping on one foot trying to get it out of my dress before I fell over. Ah its going to be chopped into a cocktail length anyways but still... expensive bus, maybe you should help girls get off the bus if you wanted a good tip perhaps. Just saying. read more

Update: May 21, 2019. Upped from one star to three star after this. They called me and explained that someone got on the bus and said they were me. They are working to put additional procedures in place to stop theft from happening. They refunded me money and will give me a tour on them. Will review again after tour. Waited for the trolley today May 17, 2019. Waited at the designated location in the email. Was 30 minutes early for our tour. No tour showed up and then the trolley passed and did not stop at the location. Tried calling multiple numbers with no response. DO NOT USE. I WANT MY MONEY BACK. read more

My husband and I enjoyed the"Terror Trolley" tour. The trolley was decked out in Halloween decor and the tour guide and driver were hilarious. They drove us through downtown, Oakland, North Shore and the Strip district and told stories of dark history and ghosts. An added benefit was the trolley is heated! read more

We used Molly's Trolleys to transport our wedding party from the ceremony to the reception on 11/7/15 and overall had great service. Our driver Janice was very polite and always made sure to assist the bride and the bridal party getting in and out of the trolley. She went above and beyond a few times making restroom stops and always asked if we needed anything. The trolley itself was in great shape and really created a fun atmosphere for our bridal party. The benches in the trolley were a little tough to sit on and probably could use additional padding but overall the trolley was in great shape and helped create some great Wedding pictures. I would recommend Molly's Trolleys to anyone who is looking to break the mold of a traditional limo or party bus and is looking for an fairly affordable means of transportation for an event. read more

It was a rainy day and we didn't want to walk around outside, so we took a Molly's Trolley Tour. I am so glad that we did! Neither of us have been to Pittsburgh in decades, so it was wonderful to see the various neighborhoods and their transformations. Our guide and our driver (I am sorry that I don't remember their names!) were knowledgeable, spoke clearly, and were open to answering questions. The cost is $27, but well worth it. I recommend this 2 hour tour for anyone who wants to familiarize themselves with the city. Also included was a ride from Mt. Washington down the incline. read more

Unfortunately, we will not be using Molly's Trolleys for my sister's wedding. I would like to give a shout out to their wedding coordinator, Valerie Benik, for going the extra mile in making suggestions with other shuttle services. Your extra effort is much appreciated. Thank you! read more

My wife and I took the tour on a cold, cloudy day last week and definitely enjoyed it. Even though we were the only two to sign up, they still gave us the full tour when many other tours were closed for the winter. We appreciated the fact that they would service their customers instead of canceling. Brian's narrative was informative and enthusiastic and the trolley was comfortable and nicely restored. As an aside, we really enjoyed our time in Pittsburgh and found it an interesting city to visit. read more

We had Brad as our tour guide and he was great! It's a 2 hour tour guide with no stops (make sure to use the restroom and eat before you go on the tour). Overall, a great tour with historic information about Pittsburgh. It felt nice to be drove around while learning. read more

Terrible services. I used Molly's Trolleys for wedding party transportation or so I thought. Every seemed fine working with their wedding coordinator leading up to the wedding. The day of the wedding, everything went wrong with Molly's Trolleys. It seemed like all of the details I worked through with the coordinator were thrown out the window. After the wedding I tried to reach both Molly's Trolleys and both of the coowners in a private manner. The only response I received was a back handed apology placing the blame on me for everything that they did wrong. I can't believe that I paid for these terrible servives. read more

The Terror Trolley Tour was just ok. I got bored w it quickly. Not quite sure how it could be improved. It was a nice trolley ride.
