In the early 1970’s, three friends came together in Key West, Florida, united by their passion for history and their desire to preserve the historic look and feel of Old Town Key West. Chris Belland, Ed Swift, and Mo Mosher first worked together restoring the historic storefronts of Duval Street in the heart of Key West. As visitors began to flock to Key West, there was an increased interest in the colorful history of the town. Recognizing this as an opportunity to tell Key West’s story, the three partners formed Old Town Trolley Tours®, a tour company that both informs and entertains its guests. When Old Town Trolley Tours first started out, the company consisted of a converted bread truck with a homemade trailer. As the tours became more popular, the company was able buy a new fleet of trolleys, which was launched in 1980. Over the next year, more than 70,000 passengers toured Key West with Old Town Trolley. As Chris, Ed, and Mo traveled the country, admiring the architecture and history of many of America’s great cities, they were inspired to expand their business. Starting with Boston and eventually adding St. Augustine, San Diego, Savannah, Nashville, San Antonio, and Washington, DC, Old Town Trolley Tours® now boasts over 190 trolleys in 8 cities. Though the company has grown, its mission to help visitors “See the Best First” has stayed the same. Along with a commitment to quality, Old Town Trolley combines history, fun facts, colorful anecdotes, and outstanding service to provide their guests with a memorable vacation experience.

This is an easy way to get around and see all the places in DC. All the drivers (but1) were super friendly and informative. They navigate traffic pretty well.
Had a great time on the hop on hop off tour bus as It is Our first time visiting DC. Was a little worried about hearing some of the reviews, but we had a great time and the drivers were excellent and very knowledgeable. Our driver was Miss Bird and she was amazing. The tickets were a higher than the other company but Larry and Juan convinced us and It was well worth It. They were really kind and friendly and seemed to care about our experience. We are from Texas and want to go to San Antonio since we were told they recently opened there. Couldn’t be happier. There was another driver we had with a long beard, we can’t remember his name but he was good too.
We took a day tour and a night tour. Night tour with the driver called Hollywood was amazing, amazing, amazing! He was fun, super super knowledgeable, loves what he does and then just the whole night vibe made it an awesome experience! I’d recommend the tour before you plan your other activities because we learned a ton that would have changed some of what did and would have done.
