Chicago Trolley & Double Decker Co.

Chicago, we’ve been your tradition for an amazing 25 years.

To tourists, from near and far, it has been our honor to showcase our amazing city.

To anyone who’s rented our trolleys for weddings, birthdays, parades and any special event in between, we are happy to have been part of your memories.

To all drivers, tour guides, sales agents and everyone behind the scenes over the past 25 years, those that have gone from co-worker to friend to family, you made Chicago shine.

Thank you.

"She is novelty; for she is never the Chicago you saw when you passed through the last time." – Mark Twain
