Nice tour around the city and park.

The tour was a good length. We made three short stops. Just enough time to stretch your legs or use the bathroom. Driver was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Rainy Trolley Adventure

We road the Trolley tour of Acadia National Park. It was raining the whole trip but Ron our driver was informative and very entertaining. We saw the whole loop and a few stops including up Cadillac Mountain which was totally fogged in with no view but still amazing.
