Denver Used to Have a Historic Trolley System — and You Can Ride in the Last Remaining Car This Summer

"Denver's last operating trolley, Car No. 25, is available for rides during the summer season. Originally built in 1911, it is the last remaining fully intact car out of the 250 that once served the Denver region. Passengers can board the trolley at Confluence Park and make stops at the Downtown Aquarium and the Children's Museum of Denver, following the former historic Route 84 along the South Platte River. The trolley operates on weekends, with round-trip rides lasting about 25 minutes." - Travel + Leisure Editors

Very cute and fun short ride. Experience a historical ride and it's wide enough you are in the shade in the trolley. There is a tour guide as the trolley goes. No tips but I'm the front of the trolley you could donate to go towards repairs. At the end they let the kids go up front to ring the bell. We added to the fun going to the Starbucks next to the reply in REI, then after we walked to the ice cream shop down the street. Down side is despite what the website says parking is NOT free.

I get the concept… but I don’t really think it’s worth the time or money unless you’re really searching for things to do. The ride is about 25 minutes, but you go one direction, then they flip your seats, and you literally go right back on the same route. The lady giving the tour wasn’t great, seemed kind of like she didn’t want to be there, and was difficult to hear (I think the mic was just kind of messed up). You can get decent photos of the Broncos stadium, and you’re able to hop off at the stadium, the children’s museum, and the aquarium. The trolley itself is quite cute. Our ride wasn’t very full.

A beautiful piece of history close to downtown Denver. Only $7 to ride the entire Roundtrip. My only suggestion is to sit away from the motor which is located on the north end of the trolley. It makes it impossible to hear the conductor talk about the trolley and the sites.

Very entertaining ride on an old trolley. The conductors were fun and energetic, interacting with the riders with facts and information for both visitors and natives. Short ride apx. 30 min. but very fair price. A must do when visiting downtown.

What a cool addition to downtown Denver! Bringing back some history in a fun and affordable ($7 adult, $3 kids, kids under 3 free) experience. It takes you from Confluence Park right outside REI all the way to Mile High and back. You can get off in between at the children’s museum too! Would highly recommend this great piece of Denver history

We're Denver locals, so we thought the trolley might be a fun way to enjoy a Sunday morning with our toddler. For two adults and a toddler, $14 total was reasonable for a 25-minute ride. The trolley itself is beautifully restored and truly a sight to see. We won't be returning, however, because the sex trafficking jokes in the tour script were a bit too much. Corny, even crude jokes are usually a fun, welcome addition to a historic tour. But references to Michael Jackson and child trafficking at the Children's Museum were way too overboard. Recommendation: Head over to the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden for a longer train ride, more history, educated volunteers, and plenty more to see!

If you're in town during their summer season, it's a lovely quick 30 minute scenic history of Denver. Love taking visitors for a tour on the trolley and then a bite at My Brother's Bar.

Awesome trip with a little one. Great narrators and they even let the kids ding the bell after the trip.
