Such an amazing experience! Heather was amazing, she knew so much about the history & made this experience so memorable! We did the Christmas tour. I’d definitely recommend!! It made for a perfect date!!
We had an absolutely fantastic experience with The Great Raleigh Trolley for our Raleigh Weekend “Raleigh Dream Homes Trolley Tour”! From start to finish, the service was exceptional. Anna made the planning process a breeze—quick to respond, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in helping us create a smooth, memorable experience. On event day, Roshanda was every bit the rockstar driver and host—arriving early, helping us coordinate smooth boarding for 30 guests, and keeping the good vibes rolling all afternoon as we toured four gorgeous custom homes across Midtown and ITB. The trolley itself was spotless, comfortable, and the perfect setting for our mix of real estate trivia, prizes, and guided commentary. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the fun atmosphere and seamless ride. If you’re planning a private event, team outing, or creative group tour in Raleigh, we can’t recommend The Great Raleigh Trolley enough. Huge thanks to Zack, Anna, Roshanda, and the entire team for helping make Raleigh Weekend’s first-ever Raleigh Dream Homes Trolley Tour such a hit! 🚋🏡✨
I went on the Haunted History Tour with Darcii Vandersilk and it was fun and informative. I've lived in Raleigh 40 yrs and never knew the stories behind the historical homes I've passed by on a regular basis. Great Tour! Tks!
I cannot give this a great review for one disappointing reason. We booked with Anna six months prior to my daughter’s wedding. I clearly stated and underline in my email that were inquiring about the white wedding trolley. (Of course!) I received a reply back ensuring they had the Brian Trolley available and after making the deposit I thought we were good to go! Spoiler - the “Brian Trolley” is BLUE. No mention of this AT ALL in correspondence. I paid in full about two weeks prior to Sept wedding (it’s no small fee for 4 hours!) The trolley was supposed to be a large part of the photos as we had it picking up and carrying the bride and the groom (and their attendants) from two locations. You can imagine how disappointed we were when the blue trolley showed up for the day. Again - there is not one word describing a BLUE trolley in any communication with me. The driver David was great and we did not let it ruin the day for sure, but the trolley is not present in any of our photos which is very disappointing considering it was a large expense and a dream of the bride to have her day include the white wedding trolley. Post wedding, I emailed my disappointment and asked what went wrong and the response was “Brian Trolley is blue” How were we supposed to know that? Sadly, I want others to beware of this!
We booked The Great Raleigh Trolley for our wedding day. We had a trolley for guests from the hotel to the church, from the church to the reception venue, and from the reception venue back to the hotel at the end of the night. We also had a trolley for the bridal party. Their services were amazing. They transported everyone on time and were extremely kind throughout the entire wedding day. We even had a last minute request to make a stop at the end of the night at The Avenue in downtown Raleigh and they were happy to take us there!
