Get ready for an unforgettable ride through the heart of Minneapolis aboard our charming vintage trolley! This isn’t just a tour—it’s a front-row seat to the jaw-dropping history, breathtaking vistas, and river-powered energy that turned a rugged frontier town into one of the most dynamic cities in the country. You’ll roll past soaring skyline views, iconic landmarks, and hidden gems as we explore the five original Districts that joined forces in the early 1900s to create the bold, bustling Minneapolis we know and love today. From the mill-powered might of the Mississippi Riverfront to the swanky theaters of Downtown, every district has its own story—and you’ll hear them all.

This is more than just sightseeing—it’s time travel with a twist of adventure, a dash of drama, and a whole lot of Midwestern charm. Whether you're a history buff, a selfie snapper, or just here for a good time, the Minneapolis Trolley Tour is your ticket to the soul of the city.

This tour was fun and informative. The Pillsbury Club staff were friendly and the food was delicious. You must try the cheese curds! They are the best I have ever had!

Our driver/guide was delightful. We live near Minneapolis and never knew most of what he shared. We highly recommend this tour. We had cheese curds and a burger/homemade chips before. We give the highest marks for the food and service, too.
Mpls at its finest!

Was greeted warmly as we entered the Pillsbury Club. Surroundings were awesome. They had a very eclectic variety of gifts and mementos mostly made by Minnesota artisans. The trolley driver/tour leader was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about Minnesota and Minneapolis in particular. I’m a retired teacher and taught Minnesota history for a number of years, so it was nice to relive those memories. Thank you for a great Sunday morning!
Trustworthy trolley ride

Moving to Minneapolis so during our house hunting trip, we decided to take this tour for some history on our new home city. The tour was fantastic, loved the information and seeing different parts of the city. It was so well-narrated and you can see the love put into this business. Already planning to take visitors and do the ghost tour next!
Great tour

This family-run business exceeded all of our expectations. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about Minneapolis, making the tour both informative and enjoyable. We learned so much about the city’s history, architecture, and local landmarks while enjoying a relaxing ride through some beautiful areas. You can tell the owners truly care about providing a great experience, and their personal touch made the tour feel special.
For not only visitors but locals too!

Amazing and I would highly recommend this tour. The tour guide (driver) was fantastic and has the perfect attitude and energy to keep it entertaining and engaging. Wyoming suggestion would be is to let the people know that we can open up those windows to bring in some air. They also have a restaurant if you want to get a bite to eat.

What an excellent tour! The meetup place was a stunning mansion with vintage and gothic club decor that was beyond unforgettable. The tour guide/driver was exceptionally knowledgeable and shared lots of interesting stories about Minneapolis and St. Paul. Highly recommended!
