We've been on trolley tours of Boston and Philadelphia and this blows them all away. Not only is it fantastic fun but it is extraordinarily informative. Mike and Jesse have done a great deal of research to find significant and interesting information to get an understanding of Albuquerque, they have made wonderful choices of what to show to give a...

I've lived in Abq for 6 years and decided to take a trolley ride the other day...it was SO fun! I learned a lot about the city I live in - Jesse and Mike were great tour guides. I'll definitely take my out of town guests when they come and recommend it to all my friends in town.

I've been to Albuquerque many times visiting friends; today was the first time we did the ABQ Trolley Co. tour. It's so fun and educational, even my friend who has lived here most of her life learned some new things. The tour guides Mike and Jesse were very entertaining and full of knowledge. Make sure to keep your sticker as... More

The day we arrived in Albuquerque we did the trolley tour with the ABQ Trolley Co. This was the best way to see the city and the owners (trolley driver and tour guide) were a wealth of information. After you complete the tour you put your sticker on a pamphlet which gets you discounts at other attractions like the zoo,... More

This was a fun and low-stress way of being introduced to the Albuquerque. The guides pointed out several sites that I later visited (and wouldn't have visited, if they hadn't mentioned them.). The guides were fun and upbeat. Spent a little too much time on how many movies had been filmed in Albuquerque and "sold" various other business establishments a... More

Really, this IS the first thing to do in Albuquerque. This is not a hop on hop off but a great overview of the city. ABQ Trolley is affiliated with many local attractions and restaurants and with your ticket you will get nice discounts to those places. Jesse & Mike, the owners, are entertaining and full of information. You see... More

We have visited Albuquerque frequently over the last 10 years, but we learned more in this 85 minute trip than we have in the last 10 years! The guys were a lot of fun and you learn a ton of history, see areas of town featured in movies an TV shows, and learn some fun history.

I've taken a few of the tours--a general tour of the city & Route 66, along with one that features movie & TV locations. Each time, I've learned new and unusual facts about the city. The owners, Jesse and Mike, are full of enthusiasm, good humor and friendliness without being cheesy tour guides. They've added video segments that coincide with... More
