    Review summary

    Hannington (also called Huntington in several reviews) clearly makes these tours special. Guests consistently praise his friendly demeanor, local knowledge, and ability to make even longtime Vermont residents discover something new about Burlington. The foliage tour gets particular love for its thoughtful stops at places like Shelburne Museum, local orchards with homemade cider donuts, and craft breweries, with all entry fees and tastings included. The trolley itself is described as clean, majestic, and draws waves from passersby. Most travelers walk away having learned Burlington's history and getting solid restaurant recommendations for their visit. One reviewer wished the storytelling was more colorful and anecdotal rather than dates-focused, wanting richer context about historical figures like Ethan Allen. Another guest felt rushed through stops without enough time to explore. These seem like outliers though. The company also handles special events well, from Valentine's Day dinner packages to rehearsal dinner transportation, with guests feeling genuinely valued and celebrated.

    I got lucky and joined a tour before I even knew what I was getting into! I asked the trolley driver what the vehicle was and if I could get on. Great tour and the only one in Town! I will join this tour again, Vermont is completely different every season!
