ABQ Trolley Co.

Wonderful speak easy tour! Would recommend! Great tour guide Chris took us to 3 speakeasy’s. Recommend delicious drinks. Lots of fun!

Great tour to see all the local sights and get details on the history of the town, TV series shot there, and see places we wanted to go back to - like the 66 Diner which was fabulous!!

I was not sure what took expect on the tour but a friend said do it! You'll love it! I did it and they were right it was more than expected. The tour and the lights were amazing. What made it extra special was Chris the 'host' of our tour. Chris filled ride with Christmas trivia and engaged all ages of the guests on the tour in a warm and funny manner! Our driver, Shawna, was great! Thanks to all the team members for providing us with quality service and a wonderful time!

Had a fun time on the tour. Guide was very knowledgeable. Went to a wide range of places. If there was a place to improve, it would be to have better instructions for time and place to meet and whether to check in or wait at stop. Would have liked Guide to talk a bit less so we could also ask questions. Was a good first intro to Albuquerque for me and would recommend to others.

The Albuquerque spooky trolly is the best experience to have fun and learn about the interesting history of Albuquerque. Cody is amazing and the scare actors for the Halloween spook show did an amazing job. The inversion experience could not have been better. The trolley is so fun. The real ghost experiences is so interesting. Thank you! Highly recommend and will do again.

Awesome tour! Chris & John are a lot of fun!! Our group had a great time! Unique locations, good drinks!

Highly recommend!! Every speakeasy on this tour is different from each other with exceptional cocktail lists. They’re also all completely aesthetic - there are so many good photo opps. Our tour guide Eric was also fun, funny, personable, kept us talking and laughing…which is so important for a good tour. Everything ran perfectly on time…honestly I only have good things to say. The trolley itself is also really cute and great for pics.

This tour of Albuquerque (12:00 PM noon tour Tuesday, October 7, 2025) was a very pleasant surprise. Highly informative and with great pacing, the tour guide was amazing (I wish I could remember her name…I think the driver’s name was Shauna and she was top notch as well). Of all the things we did during the week we spent in Albuquerque, this was by far the highlight.

I took the trolley tour today and it was a lot of fun. The guide pointed out all sorts of architecture, murals, and points of interest and shared all kinds of local history. It's an enjoyable way to spend a little time and they even give you a brochure full of discounts after.

Absolutely LOVED the ABQ trolly tour! The tour is conveniently located for in Old Town right across from the park, steps away from the Blackbird Coffee. The staff was very friendly and entertaining and completely impressed with the amount of information and history provided by our tour guide. I was a bit hesitant about 100 minutes with no bathroom stop but the tour flew by and I was completely engaged the entire time. A great option for newcomers to ABQ or anyone visiting!

The Speakeasy trolley tour was amazing! So much fun and informative. Chris was our tour guide. He was so cute, fun and very personable! He made the tour!

Have always seen the trolly around the city and decided to check it out. The staff is friendly and helpful. While there are no stops to get off it is a nice trip around the city.

I love this tour. This is my second time doing this. We got new spots this time. Great crowd and group recommend 100% go with an open mind and just have fun.

ABQ city tour review - good time - informative - very well curated - they hit all of the highlights they don't do water whites house, that's further out - you don't feel the time go by - u don't get out of the trolley

Chris and John were amazing we had fun. The Speakeasy Tour was nice. Founders and Teddy Roe's bartenders were nice and the drinks were good.

Great tour guide, Chris and driver, John with interesting Speakeasy history and stops at local Speakeasy's. Debbie

Fantastic experience! Eric is a fun and friendly tour host. All 3 stops were a hit. I cant wait to take my friends with me next time.

Had a great time on the Speakeasy tour. Never knew we had so many speakeasy's in Albuquerque. Chris and John were amazing guides.

Had such a great time on the speakeasy (shhhhh) tour. Chris and John were really great tour guides. Smooth ride and fun history.

I am loving the trolley experience so far! Our first stop at Town and Ranch is divine.

I had a good time with Chris good experience I had a good time fun place to come if you want to come and get tipsy

Had a fabulous time on a nice cool afternoon and our trolley host was very engaging. The history of speakeasy venues was interesting. The complimentary appetizers arranged for the tour were appreciated.

Our tour guide Stephanie was awsome. She had great jokes, stories, and abq information. Trolly was a lot of fun. Too bad it rained and was cloudy so couldnt see the mountains She had the facts on breaking bad, just call saul and Hos movie. Book in advance. It sells out and runs every 2 hours from old Albuquerque hotel.

So fun!! Loved the speakeasy tour with Eric we had a great time checking out three speakeasy locations around Abq.

Took this tour on Sept. 7th...Our guide was so fun and infornative...Everybody should do this as soon as you get to ABQ...GIves you lots of ideas of places to go and soo much info.

Enjoyed the Speakeasy tour on a chilly, but lovely afternoon. Eric was a great guide and John drove us expertly. Loved the history and examining the chosen speakeasy. Saw some great places to go back and visit.

We're visiting from Texas, and I decided to do the Route 66 Speakeasy 3.5 Trolley tour. The shorter two-hour only starts on April 1, the day after we leave town. We have stopped at two of the three restaurants, Hotel Jazz and Fat Frank's, so far, and both are excellent. Eric, our guide and John, the driver are very friendly and helpful.

I'm on a trolley Speakeasy Tour right now, and it's a blast. Everything I've done with this company has been fun. Check out their website to see what's coming up. The Duke City Pedaler is an eternal favorite. A true ABQ gem.

Great tour of the Speakeasy's . Interesting places, great drinks , fun little secrets of Albuquerque

The speakeasy tour was awesome. Chris was a great tour guide. He was knowledgeable and entertaining. Sang us a song too! Chris for President!!​

I always enjoy taking city tours when I go visit a city. After reading great reviews with this company, I thought I'd check it out. Instead of signing up on line, I had took my chances and went to the appropriate hotel where the tour starts. Checked in with Stephanie (I believe) and found out I'll be the only one on the tour.... SWEET! Nothing like a personalized tour. Needless to say, we hit all of the hot spots as the brochure stated. Stephanie was very knowledgeable about the city and would answer any questions that I had. It was really more like having a great conversation. I would highly recommend this tour.

Really enjoyed this tour. It covered many parts of the city, and gave lots of good information.

Fun! Must experience the trolley tour. Experience places in ABQ that I never knew about

SOOO much fun! The drivers and hosts were awesome! Highly recommend for visitors and locals!

AWESOME TOUR! Definitely coming back, very knowledgeable kiddos were here and a definite must do!

Blake was our tour guide and he was great! Very informative and fun. The tour is long and you see everything you would want to see! Definitely a must do

Learned a lot about Albuquerque. Our guide was very good. I think anyone visiting Albuquerque should take the time for this tour.

We had a fantastic tour, guide & driver. It was professional, on time, informative & entertaining. We couldn't have asked for more! This is an open air bus w/ plastic roll down windows for inclement weather. Gratuities are earned! Try to make this a first priority of things to do if a tourist to the Duke City.

My husband and I have been saying for years that it would be so much fun to do a local tour in our hometown. We signed up for the Speakeasy Tour. It was fantastic! Eric was our guide. He was knowledgeable, funny, and an overall delight. The drinks were delicious and the atmosphere was perfect. Highly recommend for locals and tourists alike!

Best City Tour! So glad we took this tour. This happened to be a swap from our original Groupon deal. I originally purchased the Albucreepy Downtown Ghost Walk Tour (hubby likes this stuff) but I did not know that the company already has daily schedules for their tours and the Albucreepy tour was only on weekends which we won't be able to make. I called the company and left a message. They immediately called me back and said that they would be happy to exchange and accommodate the tour that was scheduled today which was the City Tour. Awesome! DAY OF TOUR: We met at the Hotel Albuquerque at Old Town. We chose the 11:00a tour with our driver, Chris, and tour guide, Rorik. What excellent and comprehensive job they did. In this 90-minute tour we covered some historic and current points of interests. We hit some places we wouldn't have known to visit on our own. The tour included Old Town, Museum Row (ABQ is part of Bill Gates and Microsoft history), ABQ Country Club Neighborhood (if you like Breaking Bad you must visit Albuquerque), Downtown, EDo (East Downtown), Nob Hill (not quite like ours in SF but the idea was there), Bart Prince house (very different!), University of NM, Sports Stadiums (did you know about Bart Simpson and the Albuquerque Isotopes?), Railyards/Barelas, Rio Grande Zoo/Bio Park. Great experience of first impression of Albuquerque. It helped us plan our day and what points of interest to visit. At the end of the tour we were given a discount brochure to merchants around ABQ. Chris and Rorik were awesome! Very informative. They had requested us (tourists) to leave a review of our experience at TripAdvisor... um, I don't do TripAdvisor. P.S. Don't forget to tip your hardworking tour guides :) Review #0532

Great way to introduce yourself to the area! My flight arrived a little earlier than my family so I decided to explore ABQ. I saw this pop up under things to do. This was a great value for all the stuff they show you. You get to go around the town and see all the landmarks and filming locations-- including the ever-popular "Breaking Bad." (Sidenote: if you're a super fan they also have a full tour dedicated to that). Our tour guide was super energetic and very knowledgeable. Overall at $30 for a full 90-min tour- definitely worth it and lives up to its motto- "The Best First Thing To Do in Albuquerque." **TIP- you can book this online in advance. Tour seemed pretty full on my day, so worth reserving your seat.

Just took this tour and had a great time! Alicia was knowledgeable, funny and exuberant! Overall a fantastic tour!

Great, off the beaten path tour of ABQ! These guys are rated number one on Trip Advisor and we weren't disappointed. In fact, the 66 minute tour is now 76 minutes, so you get more bang for your buck. It was a hot day but the trolley was cool and comfortable. The trolley itself is really clean and nice. Jesse and Mike are great tour guides and also answer questions on the tour. They hooked us up to a bunch of things we wouldn't have found on our own. I recommend this tour as a must do when you get to Albuquerque! Pick up a free tourist card in the tourist information shop in Old Town and save some money on this tour too as they give a 10%-15% discount if you have the card.

What a great tour!! The staff is very sweet and very knowledgeable. The tour gave us so much information as to where to go and what to do. Would definitely recommend taking this tour as you first get into town. We went by historic places, famous filming locations, and beautiful Pueblo style shopping areas. Never knew Albuquerque had so much amazing history! The tour cost us $35 which really isn't bad for a 90 minute tour! It's definitely a must do!!

Very informative, entertaining hosts. Tour was right from our hotel, can't beat that. Great introduction to all the history, architecture, different neighborhoods, restaurants and shopping etc that Albuquerque offers. My 10 year old daughter and I enjoyed the trolley ride. She was not bored at all- amazing LOL. :) Highly recommend for out of towners to take the general Albuquerque ride on your first day. Then you'll have an ideas where you would like to go back to explore yourself on your stay.

Aweful planning and lack of communication on the day of the event. The trolley arrived more than 25 minutes later to the published boarding time. No one was at the boarding point to update customers anxiously waiting IN THE COLD, not knowing when they're going to arrive. I think maybe an automated text message would show some courtesy to the patrons if they are delayed for whatever reason. The ride itself was fun(ish) but because I was so aggravated by the long delay, I don't think I got the full experience. My daughter fell asleep within first 30 minutes so I was so disappointed that she didn't get to see more than half of beautiful Christmas lights we went to see. The Christmas Light Tour is a great idea and MUCH better than the Luminaria City Bus Tour (Never again!!). They take you to the neighborhoods you wouldn't normally go or won't have access to and that would be too much driving on your own. Be ready to be engaged in a very loud trolley ride too. The guide is very energetic...of course that's their job to get the patrons engaged and have a grand old time...so she was going up & down the isles hosting trivia, stingingly all crazy, etc. if I wasn't already pissed off I would've probably enjoyed myself. Next time I'll take the earlier time so my daughter won't pass out as soon as we get going. Good concept. PLEASE do something about communication in case of a delay.

Joanne was our guide this morning. She was extremely knowledgeable and also full of wonderful side-bars and tidbits of information. A natural story teller. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and wish we could have done this tour on our first day here in Albuquerque. Nevertheless, we loved knowing the rich history of the land and the people, learned about the Pueblo architecture, Xeri (??) landscaping that the city initiated 25 years ago thus saving 50% of water consumption! Take this tour if you are visiting Albuquerque, you won't be disappointed.

This was a really cool and efficient way to see the city of Albuquerque. Learned a lot about the city history and the current present and future state of the city. The trolley was very comfortable with TV monitors also giving features in between the live tour guide who was very pleasant and knowledgeable. Total tour time ran about 1 hour 45 minutes with multiple options to customize your tour experience. Best part for me was houses and shops from Breaking Bad.

I'm giving them five stars, and I haven't checked out their flagship ride, yet. I've been hearing so many great things about the Albuquerque trivia tour, over the years, and if you know me, you know I'm a geek for local knowledge. Alas, it wasn't to be this holiday season, because I'm an absolutely amazing dad. More on that in a minute. Let me describe the Piñon Express trolley tour, first. I feel like I shouldn't, um, provide any spoilers, but then again, everything that happened during this ride was carefully detailed in the tour description, including the cookies and hot cocoa. So yeah, spoiler alert. We embarked from Hotel Albuquerque, cruising the streets of Old Town and Civic Plaza, gazing at luminarias and lights, listening to an audio recording of the Polar Express. (My wife: "The thing about that movie, that story, it's really boring. Totally uneventful. It's lame. But you know, Santa gives one kid the first gift of Christmas and that's, well, that's it. Oh, and the dramatic tension is the bell that the kid loses, and finds at the end. Yeah, that's about it. Don't watch the movie.") This company knows A) how to shun political correctness and B) what this season is really about. If you have some axe to grind with the ol' Christmas tradition, don't take this tour, it's all about meeting Santa and Mrs. Claus (does she have a first name, dear patriarchy?), singing songs, listening to some terrific stories, and politely smiling through Santa's questionable Greatest Hit. I'm a huge fan of Olde Schoole Christmas, the holidays the way they used to be: caroling, baking cookies, connecting with neighbors and friends, handing off that weird fruitcake to some unsuspecting sucker. ABQ Trolley Co crafts an event worthy of my childhood. My kid loved it. Oh yeah, getting to that Awesome Dad thing. I've been hearing, lately, that I've earned the Amazing, Totally Incredible Nobody Tops Me dad award, which is, you know, really cool. But I can't help but chuckle at how we merit my qualifications. Yes, I do indeed purchase tickets to kids activities upon which I -- gasp! -- actually attend. I also photograph said occasions, sharing kiddo pictures with friends who often deem me the Most Amazing Dad Ever. If that's all it takes, sweet. But to be fair, there were six other Most Amazing dads onboard our tour, which kinda deflates my false sense of superdaddy glory.

We had a fantastic time on the trolley tour. It was the first thing we did in Albuquerque and it was a great way to get introduced to the city. We took the trolley in December, when it's operated from a heated van. We saw tons of sights like Old Town, Indian Pueblo Cultural Center, ABQ BioPark Zoo, National Hispanic Cultural Center, Bricklight District / University Area, Nob Hill, and more. We'd recommend it for people who are new to the city. Their tagline really sums it up, "The best first thing to do in Albuquerque."

This is a great place to take your out-of-town guests! Jesse and Mike clearly love what they do and have a heart for ABQ. We did the City Tour which includes a tour of downtown, Old Town, UNM, Nob Hill, Bart Prince's and Gertrude Zachary's houses (you'll learn more about them on the tour), and the upscale ABQ neighborhood where several Hollywood films and TV shows have been filmed (not just Breaking Bad), and the city beach (which doesn't fit most people's criteria of a beach). Trivia Q&A gives you chances to win little goodies. Most of us were out of towners for the Balloon Fiesta, so they also talked to us about Southwestern food, folklore, and culture. Keep your sticker after the ride to get little perks and discounts at locally owned and operated ABQ businesses: we used it to get a free ice cream dessert with our meal at Old Town Pizza down the street from the Trolley. The Trolley location is also ideal: a five-minute walk from Old Town. Leave your car at the hotel and stroll around after the tour! : ) *Update: Note to Stephanie P from Oakland, CA: I am from the Bay Area as well, and people from Cali typically aren't impressed with NM food (I feel the same way, I'll admit). However, I didn't get any goodies on the tour, and sopapillas are a trademark NM dish that you won't find in Cali, so you got more bang for your buck than I did. Quit your beefing about your full belly and about being the baby on the tour (which you were), and enjoy. : )

My husband and I are a big fan of Trolley tours, and this one was one of the best ever. Why you might ask? Because not only is it owned and operated and built to their specifications, but Mike and Jesse have great personalities and really care about you having a great time on their tour. The tour was very interesting, and Mike and Jesse made it fun and really go out of their way to interact with everyone asking questions and giving out prizes. They want you to love the city as much as they do. We traveled through where lots of filming takes place, and they even have a TV that shows clips of where things were filmed, what areas used to look like, etc etc. Even using the discounts provided by this tour was helpful in saving money. You just can't go wrong with the tour!

I took the murals tour of downtown, Barelas and Nob Hill neighborhoods and had a fantastic time. The tour guide was really excellent and the trolley driver was wonderful, too. The murals are really fun to see this way and I learned about some off the beaten track places that have beautiful murals. Be sure to take a hat, wear sunscreen and have water or a cold drink. Tour lasts a couple of hours and is well planned.

We've been on several tours--& we always take visitors from out of town on a tour. Everyone always has a great time. As many before me has said, the Tour Guides are great. Don't miss this--'Say you want this.'

Great service, great ride, organized staff, comfortable bus. What more can you ask for?

This is a must for anyone who truly wants to know the history of Albuquerque and all the rich folklore around it. The tour is about two hours long and they take you through historical sites UNM the Rio Grande cute little neighborhoods breaking bad and better call Saul and other famous movie sites. The tour guide we had was funny engaging and deserved a good tip. I hope I'm not the only one who gave him some cash.

The tag line for Abq. Trolley Co. is "The best first thing to do in Albuquerque" I moved here in 2/2016 and wanted to wait till my daughter's visit from Georgia to take the tour. The trolley was full and I was the only local. This company is legit. I and everyone else on board learned so much about the town I call home and love. Allyson is a wonderful tour guide. She is lively, bubbly and upbeat. She has a passion for the town she calls home and it shines through in a wonderful way. This tour is for EVERYBODY. No matter if your visiting or a local. There is something for everyone. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Allyson for a wonderful afternoon. See my ginormous album on Facebook - Philip Wiley (Geekpool) GeekpoolGeek with a mouth
