By rail · TRAM AND STREETCAR TOURS IN THE USA
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 4 tram and streetcar tours in the USA worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before the seat is booked.
Take a 12-minute tram ride 4,139 feet above Jackson Hole to Rendezvous Mountain. At the summit, walk the Grand Teton Skywalk, eat waffles at Corbet’s Cabin, and use the Bridger and Sweetwater Gondolas in peak season. English commentary, wheelchair access, and weather-dependent operation are included.
“Fantastic and awesome view ! Highly recommend! Waffles were delicious”
Ride a blue trolley with a yellow roof through Arlington National Cemetery on a narrated 45-minute loop. Hop off at three locations, including JFK’s gravesite, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and Arlington House. English-speaking guides, accessible trolleys, and flexible cancellation make this a practical choice for first-time visitors.
“Really enjoyed it. You learn a lot of history in your visit. I would say that the tour is short, unless you fully walk around.”
Meet your guide near Juneau’s cruise docks for a small-group walk among Native totems, stories, and local traditions, then ride the Goldbelt Tram to 1,800 feet on Mount Roberts. Guides such as Nicholas and Damon add local history and personal stories. Allow one to four hours, depending on your pace.
“by Melissa_T -"We had a great time- our guide-Nicholas was awesome , he was very informative , had lots of local stories and history to share - answered all our questions- went on the tram- views were amazing, and the weather was beautiful! Saw no local wildlife( it was probably too many people!!- but we did not have to wait in any lines long! )”
Start with brunch in Washington Park, then walk through Over-the-Rhine and Findlay Market for Cincinnati specialties such as goetta, pizza, stuffed French toast, cheese, fudge, and pastry. Guides including Laura, Adrienne, Jenn, Katie, and Maggie share local stories before a short streetcar ride.
“This was our first food tour and we really enjoyed it. Adrienne, our guide, was pleasant and knowledgable. She gave great facts about the history of Cincinatti.”
