Oak City Holiday Sights & History Trolley Tour

No lights— I think would have been better to tell more about the history like the tour started talking bout Sir Walter Raleigh… Disappointed in no lights and also would be better with more history stories.

It was our understanding we would see Christmas decorations and lights. None of the major stops had lights on. We went in the evening with children for this specific reason. So disappointed, nothing was lit up except the Christmas Tree and giant Ornament. The ornament was beautiful and enjoyed walking around it and through it. I feel this was an unacceptable tour, especially for the amount of money spent. The only thing that saved the tour was the outstanding tour guide and bus driver. They did the best they could with what they had to work with. I really don't like being negative, but my daughter spent $175 to go for a trolley ride in the dark.

We may have saw 3 things decorated on the whole ride. Def not what was listed on the website of things we would see! Wouldn’t suggest this to anyone

I really liked the ability to ride the trolley through Raleigh to see the sights. However, there were no lights to see. I really feel like we paid a lot of money for just a ride on a trolley. The tour guide was great. The tour was great but there was no route of any sort. There needs to be a plan, a route, Christmas music playing and a much better plan. I would do this again but much later in the season.

No lights to see, and not much said about the history on downtown Raleigh. (must have been a bad night)

This was a joke of a Holiday Lights tour, wish I had read the Yelp reviews first. Our tour guide was not great at all. She told us she wasn't from Raleigh and for someone to correct her on things if she messed up. She told us all about the lights that were NOT on or don't exist anymore. Pullen Park turns their lights off after the train stops, so why did we drive by and even look at it? They don't decorate the Glenwood trees anymore....thanks? She pointed out a bunch of bars that decorate amazing for Halloween...ok? Only thing worth seeing is Capitol Building and Jessie's house, and she got into all this weird detail about a lawsuit...? Generally negative commentary throughout the hour. Really disappointing. My kids said they didn't have fun. The place where we met was really cool though.

The tour guide was not very knowledgeable. She stated that she had stated just two week prior. She had to read text from her phone. Also there were very little sights to see in the dark. Most of the planned sights were not lit.
