Boston Trolley ride. - The Trolley saved a lot of time and allowed us to see many areas of the City as well as a fun and informative narrative from our driver Hugo. He made the trip interesting and explained many different parts of Boston from a historical and cultural perspective. A great experience.

Trolley Tour with Hugo Huzzah! - Did the trolley tour on Monday, November 20, 2023 with Hugo. Hugo was lively, funny, knowledgeable, and created a great vibe on the tour. We got to see and hear about many historic places taught in history, as well as fun facts only locals would know. I would definitely recommend City View Trolley Tours and definitely recommend Hugo as a tour guide.
