We had Heather as a driver and she made all the difference! We previously had a man drive that we could hardly understand and then when Heather got on to lead the driving tour, she had the whole trolley full of people engaged in everything she said, asking us questions talking. She was absolutely delightful.! she admitted she was not born in Savannah, but she knew every detail and gave the best tour I had ever had and I have been going to Savannah for over 20 years! I would definitely recommend this tour and try to look for Heather, she's the best!! read more

I truly think that this is the best way to see Savannah, especially if you have never been or it's been a long time (or if you have bad knees, like my husband!) It was about $45 per person which might sound a little steep but they take you to 16 stops all over the city and you can get on and off as many times as you like (just show your ticket!) They run about every 15-20 minutes and if you stay on for the entire ride, it's about a 90 min tour. Joey was our first guide and he was so awesome that we decided to stay on 2/3 of the way through (we only got off for a "pit stop".) He was hilarious and had dad jokes for days. We really enjoyed him. They also gave us some good info...if you're interested in the squares, sit on the left, churches on the right. Every seat near the window was excellent for taking photos. I'm glad I brought an external battery, I was taking so many pictures! There is no AC but they did give us fans! And there are a lot of good coupons included in their handouts. AND a really good map of Savannah. A lot of good info. I highly recommend! read more

I've been on trolley tours in other cities and wanted to like this tour but it wasn't great. We had two drivers, one was nice but told jokes instead of history. The second driver had an attitude and reprimanded passengers for talking. It made me feel like we were in a library. Then the other passengers pushed to get the window seats and then split up from their partners, so when we got into the trolley we couldn't sit together. All in all this was not a good experience. Best part was going into the distillery at the last stop. And they didn't even tell us that our ticket included a free tasting at the distillery. We had to ask other customers. read more

This is a good way to see the beautiful, historical city of Savannah, Georgia. The trolley will take you all around the many beautiful squares which are a unique feature of this city. If you are a fan of the book or movie Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, you will see the Mercer House as well as other important spots mentioned in the book. The old part of the city is rally quite remarkable. The tour also takes you to the port are and the newer parts of the city, but the main focus is definitely the historical area. Than Goodness the town capitulated and General Sherman spared it from being burnt. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, friendly and comfortably paced. Be aware that you cannot commandeer the entire seat, not even for backpacks and such. Two persons to a seat. read more

Cooper was fantastic!!! Only complaint is wait time. Waiting "40" minutes for a trolley in 90* weather, with nowhere to sit was grueling for a disabled veteran spouse! read more

I've been to beautiful Savannah twice but this time we did the trolley. The best decision ever. You get to see and here about historical landmarks and even get off and walk around or visit these and then get back on the next trolley and continue till the end of the day. Great vacation investment. The driver was knowledgeable and funny in her narration. I highly recommend. Beats driving around and paying for parking that's hard to find. read more

No no--don't do this. I was on an hour long tour with Tammy and she was fine. She was trying really hard to be Southern and kitschy. She wound up just being annoying. History came across as totally flat. Seems like the main thing she wanted us to know was where to buy dessert items such as pralines and ice cream. All the straight white couples seemed to enjoy it, though, so I guess the company knows their audience. read more

Spent the whole day on and off the trolley seeing the sights of Savannah and hearing the stories about the historic section. Cash was an amazing driver and host. read more

A fabulous hop-on, hop-off lightly informational tourist task. I did find it hard to hear the driver/guide often, but such is the way it is sometimes. I was mostly utilizing it for the hop-on hop-off to get to opposite sides of downtown and give my feet a rest. Buy tickets online and save money! read more

Old Town Trolley is an excellent way to experience the touristy core of Savannah without renting a car. We purchased a 2-day pass that allowed us to hop on and off each day until 5 PM, after which we used Uber/Lyft to get around. I recommend hopping on and off, as each driver has their own personality, and some are definitely more engaged and interesting than others. Even though some of the trolleys were a bit crowded, there was never too much of a wait until another came along. The route map allowed us to grab lunch/coffee along the way and check out some attractions while getting a historical overview of Savannah, and getting accustomed to the city layout. The only negative experience was at the Old Town Trolley welcome center where one of the sales guys was disappointed we bought our tickets in advance via the AAA website, touting it's the best price to purchase through them, when in fact it was more expensive to purchase on site. He proceeded to then hand us 2 brochures, one of which had an outdated route map, which made things confusing on our first day of using the trolley. Overall, using Old Town Trolley was a great way to get around Savannah and doing the whole tourist thing without having to rent a car, and I would recommend them to others. read more

We took the Old Town Trolley Tour 8 years ago. We liked it so much that we decided to take it again. We had a fantastic time from 11AM to 5:30PM. We had three different drivers on 10/10/25. Ellis was our favorite as he provided us with a comprehensive, congenial history of the city as we traveled to 16 stops in 90+ minutes. He also recommended an excellent place for lunch, which we enjoyed. We also ate dinner there. We had perfect weather - sunny and cloudy, and no rain. It was cool as we rode from stop to stop. We went to every stop, and when it started over again, we got off at stop 10 to eat and shop. We walked to stop 11 and got on again. This time we got off at the Riverwalk. We shopped, and got back on, riding to stop 9 where our car was parked at the visitor center. There are two tours: 75 minute historical tour in an enclosed white bus and a 90 minute tour in an open air yellow bus with individual & different commentary by the driver you have. We have not tried the first one. We like being able to get on and off, and listening to different drivers' perspectives. The staff at each of the visitor centers housing the tour are friendly and knowledgeable. They gave us coupons with our map. Unfortunately we forgot to use them when we visited and shopped at five of the locations! Maybe you'll be more aware and remember to use them after your tour! read more

Trolley seating conditions are good but our trolley had a hard time staying running at stops, which is often. Beautiful city center and convenient jump off/hop on locations throughout the tour. The two different drivers we encountered were very friendly and knowledgeable and made the tour fun. Lunch at the new restaurant at the beginning and end of the tour was good. Would definitely recommend! read more

This is a good way to get the lay of the land in downtown Savannah. The drivers were Knowledgeable and told lots of stories along the way. Some were a bit suspect like I really don't think that Ford put Spanish moss in his cars and had people "itching for a Ford." We googled it, but we might be wrong.... There were some stops that were right across from each other which was confusingOur driver told us about Mrs. Wilke's restaurant and helped us get there. Delicious food! It runs from 9 AM to 5 PM and you just have to be on the trolley by 5 PM and they'll take you to the stopyou want to end up at. read more

Oh man, if you are a tourist or even a local yokel... you got to do this at least once! What a way to learn about a historic city! We did the tour, the first in '23, and then on the May 31st on '26. Great narration, humor, and local yore. Fun, educational, funny, touristy and campy. But it is wicked good. Pops was a hoot!! Highest recommendation! Tip well these folks do work hard! read more

Just this year alone I have done the trolley tour twice. I am not a tourist, I live in Savannah. My 3 year old grandson loves it. The tour is full of sights and information. We love the hop on, hop off option. That way we can stop at our favorite places. Everyone at check in has always been so kind and helpful. The tour guides are very knowledgeable about Savannah. Of course spring or fall is the best time due to weather. read more

My husband and I took the hop-on hop-off trolley tour in Savannah and had a fantastic time! Our driver, Jared, was absolutely wonderful--he has such a great personality and was incredibly engaging throughout the ride. We chose to do the full loop first so we could hear Jared's complete narration before hopping off to explore. It was the perfect decision! He shared fascinating details about Savannah's rich history, along with some lesser-known fun facts that really brought the city to life. The tour sparked our excitement to visit spots we might have overlooked otherwise. The hop-on hop-off format worked brilliantly for us. Buses arrived quickly at each stop--we rarely waited long--and the stops are conveniently located near all the main tourist attractions. It got a bit crowded toward the end of the day (around 5 p.m.), and we occasionally had to wait for the next bus, but overall, it was seamless and stress-free. One small suggestion: I wish the tours ran a little later than 5 p.m. It would be ideal for avoiding parking hassles and enjoying dinner downtown--there are so many delicious restaurants to try! We highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting an easy, informative, and enjoyable way to see Savannah. Thanks to Jared for making it memorable! read more

While it is very convenient to jump on and off these trollies, the "tour" component is terrible. The script is boring, the drivers ramble and mumble to the point that you can't even understand what they are saying. I would strongly advise they look at their tour story training. Next time I go to Savannah I'm going to try another tour Company. read more

I wouldn't recommend splurging if you have an active toddler, I'll share my experience, others might have had a different one. The driver/guide was nice but not too long into the route he did sternly announce along the lines of "if you're having a conversation I can't stop you but please keep your volume low". The trolley quieted down and to keep my toddler quiet and from having his full blown tantrums, I turned on Ms. Rachel at what I felt was a very low and reasonable volume. Mind you this is an open air trolley with traffic noise all around, not a library. Later into our ride we had another passenger ask us to "turn down the volume". I didn't realize people expected a quiet experience on what I felt was a public transport. We felt compelled to get off at the very next stop and honestly we just walked around the rest of the day and it was much quicker than the trolley anyways. I don't feel like it was a family friendly experience if you have young ones that can't follow instructions and know how to be quiet yet. Big waste of money for us. So just choose wisely, you can honestly walk around at your own pace and it'll be a better experience than sitting around a bunch of judgey folks that expect silence from a baby. read more

These are a great tour to enjoy! They offer hop on hop off opportunities and you can purchase the day pass and it's good for the entire day of touring. They have knowledgeable tour guides who provide excellent information and are also funny to listen to. We enjoyed our experience and have done it all more than one occasion. read more

Miss Pearl our guide is a treasure and life saver...I was south of town and a few minutes past the last pickup and she picked me up anyway and gave me a 45 minute tour of Savannah including 9 stops and dropped me near my hotel...very interesting...thank you Miss Pearl! read more

For the most part we enjoyed the Old Town Trolley Tours. The information is very informative but it all depends on the driver/presenter. When we first got on, our driver/presenter was amazing. She was very engaging, very informative and presented the history very well. The second ride with a different driver/presenter was awful. She definitely was having a bad day as at a stop she went on a rant how no one was listening to her, how she only had to get through 5 years (not sure the significance) and then called on riders to answer past questions when they weren't even on the bus during the time that information was presented. Pretty unprofessional. So what we learned with these tours is the information is very good but it all depends on the driver/presenter. They really do make or break the trip so when they are good, let them know you appreciate it. read more

We had an amazing driver. Cooper was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We planned to get off but decided to stay with her all the way around because she was so good read more

Only in town for two days- so glad we took the trolley tour! Our tour guide and driver was Lily. She was great- took her job seriously and had genuine love and pride in her city. Leaned so much! Highly recommend! read more

Took the ghost and gravestones tour, could barely understand the tour guide, her voice was so high pitched it sounded like the chipmunks. She knew the material but the delivery was bad. Plus, why would you use an un a/c trolley while you have the ac equipped ones parked on a 90+ degree night. Several people bailed early and so did we, just a waste. read more

Excellent way to see historic Savanah. Great drivers who double as tour guides. Each driver provides unique insights. Fun day. $38.95 (Jan 26) before any coupon discounts and taxes added. I recommend! read more

Enjoyed- changed driver and had a much better tour. Mel Bel is a riot! Lots of history shared. Pretty much on schedule, a bus will be at 16 stops every 20 minutes, Starts at 9 and DONE at 5pm! $50 for adults all day. Hope on and off. Stops 8 rest room and 10 city market are important. All drivers very friendly. TIPS welcomed!!! read more

This was an excellent option to get around Savannah for a 2-day trip. I purchased the 2-day pass because I didn't want to rent a car and I planned on visiting several places around Savannah. The trolley drivers were great, each one brought their own charm to the narration. I actually rode so often, I probably know the city enough to do my own tour. :-) Getting off and on at various stops was a breeze and I never had to wait long for a pick-up. And the drivers allowed ample time for passengers approaching the shuttle to get on. I will say that the pick-ups at the actual Old Town Trolley storefronts usually had more people getting on, recommend maybe getting on at one of the in-between stops if possible. I found that all of the stops were very conveniently located a few steps, if not right in-front of most of the places to see. I was also lucky enough that there were a stop a few steps from my hotel. Definitely recommend to get around the main sites of Savannah. read more

A fun way to explore Savanah! Our tour guide, Justice, was phenomenal! Highly recommend .

Kind of expensive bus ride around a pretty walkable city. They were recently purchased a few months ago and the website is not up-to-date with new ticket sales and location information. We missed the trolley luckily the driver called me, but he couldn't get me a shuttle in time. After speaking with two other sales representatives, Josh was able to help me! Thankfully, we didn't waste nearly $100 for one and a half hour bus ride around the city and we were able to hop on another bus but kind of lost its cluster so we got off and went to one of the stops and got something to eat after a long afternoon. The bus driver was really nice and friendly And tried to make it fun but my bubble was deflated. They have a nice ticket building with a QR code to purchase tickets, but be careful all of the buses don't go to that building for pick up. Who would know this? I would not do this again read more

Had a fantastic time here with my son. Mother and son date night was fun. We enjoyed the tour and the history. We loved the stories and seeing the sights. Temperance our tour guide was fantastic! She was knowledgeable and engaging. She made the tour fun! My only concern was at points it was hard to hear from certain guests holding a side conversation, despite being asked multiple times to refrain from side conversations. Sandy our driver was great and kept us safe! This is definitely a tour we will do again! read more

I think I've been on this tour about 6 times now. It's convenient, and the perks are amazing. The city of Savannah is a must see with all their monuments and different places of interests. This trolly tour takes you around the city, with hop on and hop off so you get to see a lot of Savannah and its beauty. There are numerous stops (not sure exact number 15 or 19?) a bus comes around every 15 minutes, so you can get off and see the sights and hop on another trolley. My favorite stop is the old city market, and the prohibition museum. Also river street where there's a lot to do. The narrators are always a wealth of knowledge, friendly, and humorous. Well worth the time, and money. I believe it runs about $50 per person. read more

You can not be in the historic district without seeing these trolleys about. You can hop on and off, and it is a great way to get the lay of the land, while learning about Savannahs history. It is a very walkable city, but it is nice to have a sit and just take in your surroundings. I had several different drivers, but Red stood out. She shows a lot of love and knowledge for the city and was so engaging. I almost didn't want to get off at my stop, she pulls you in. They have some other tours that you can combine to get a discount, and I never had to wait more than about ten minutes for the next one to come. read more

The Olde Town Trolley hop o. hop off tour pros: does offer hop on hop off stops throughout historic district, Driver does give historic info as drive through the city, convient to tourist areas. Cons: what historic info you get will depend on your driver, if you hop off the next driver may not know as much, it is not air conditioned, stops running at 5pm daily, and it is pricey for trolley transportation. read more

Great experience and best way to see the city. Convenient too as you can hop on and hop off anytime you want, and every single driver/tour guide were amazing and very informative. On one route we had the hilarious 'Big-E' who had a past life as a comedian and radio show host, and then another route we had 'Q' and she was so sweet and so funny herself. All the drivers were also very patient at each stop to everyone waiting outside to make sure they could get a seat or would radio the other trolleys to let the people who had to still wait how long the wait was - good customer service. Not a boring low energy tour at all, as you will be entertained and informed all at the same time. Price point IS higher at around $50 per person compared to similar tours I've done in other cities, but the tour guide's humor, customer service, and knowledge make it all worth i! read more

We are veterans of Old Town Trolley Tours since we've been on many tours in various cities. Suzanne & I agree: Miss COOPER is the very best Host of any / every tour we've ever been on! Am not kidding! She's extremely knowledgeable; knows her stuff; her delivery is hilarious , and she is definitely in her element as a Tour Guide. Considering she's been doing Ghost Tours for a few years, I think it's absolutely amazing that she has been doing Day Tours for merely a week! If Cooper worked for me, I'd promote her, asap!

On the whole we enjoyed this trolley tour. The driver mumbled a bit and we would have liked a lot more history. It was open air and sometimes hard to hear the driver so someone hard of hearing would have had a hard time understanding what was being said. It absolutely poured rain so it was nice we could put down the windows. It's pretty pricy so be sure to buy tickets early in the day so you can hop on and off at will and use it as your transportation and not at the end of the day where you get one loop around. read more
