The trolley tour is so much fun and informative. You travel from Old Town to New town, Downtown and UNM. The history of ABQ is fascinating. This is a must do for anyone living in or visiting ABQ. Blade and Shannon were our host for the morning. Blade has a wealth of knowledge and stories. Great tour.

Fun and educational tour of Albuquerque in under 2 hours. Comfortable trolley. Good tour guide (Blake) and trolley driver (Shauna). We did not rent a car during our 5 day visit to Albuquerque so this was a great way for us to explore the area beyond Old Town where we were staying.

Educational about...

Nursegabaldon, Sep 2025

Educational about Albuquerque. I enjoyed hearing about UNM. I was wanting to learn about the Huning Castle home which is still in existence on Laguna Street in the country club area.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thanks for joining us on our Best of ABQ City Tour! The Huning Castle is no longer standing in the neighborhood. It was torn down in the 1950s. The last remaining relic is a replica fountain that is now part of the Huning Castle apartments (built in the same location).

Disappointing tour

Teka_B, Sep 2025

Not much history concerning the town, mostly info on movies, and campus housing. The host, although very nice and entertaining could not answer most of our questions. I would not recommend this tour if you want to learn about the he and people of Albuquerque.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Teka. We’re sorry to hear that the tour didn’t meet your expectations. Our trolley experience focuses on a mix of Albuquerque history, pop culture, film locations, and things to do, so we understand it may not have been the type of deep historical tour you were hoping for. We truly appreciate your honesty, and we’ll take your comments into account as we continue improving our tours.

Our tour guide Blake gave an excellent tour of ABQ! Wear a hat that won't blow off! Give yourself plenty of time to find parking beforehand.

Great overview of ABQ

Irene_E, Sep 2025

Great overview of the city of ABQ! About a hour & 40 minutes of touring around. Great commentary from Lisa & Shawna was a phenomenal driver! She had to detour quite a few times due to construction. The trolley leaves from Old Town which is just so quaint & beautiful.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Glad you enjoyed your experience, Irene! Lisa will be delighted to hear her commentary made the experience memorable, and we’ll be sure to pass along your praise to Shauna for her excellent driving (especially with those construction detours!). Hope to see you on board again soon!
