    If you’re looking to learn a bit of the history of Portland, take in a few sights to help you plan the rest of your trip along with a stop in Fort Williams park. This is the tour. We were so happy we did it. The big bonus was that Bite of Maine food truck was at the park. We had heard about this through the food network and we were able to get the best lobster roll in Maine on this tour. Apparently the food truck is always there. Bonus win!!!

    The trolley meets a the port across from Holy Donuts. Be there 15 minutes early to check in. The trolley drives around all different areas of the city. Then goes to the Portland Head light. Beautiful park. Great experience.
