The Great Raleigh Trolley delivers Christmas cheer.
If Santa’s sleigh had wheels and could cart you and all your friends around for some local merriment this season, it would be The Great Raleigh Trolley. Starting with Christmas tours and a handful of additional offerings in 2017 in a small parking lot Downtown, the “North Pole operation” has since expanded to offer a full-fledged festive experience at its Holiday Headquarters, Tap Yard.
“Christmas has been a treasured part of The Great Raleigh Trolley story since day one,” says founder and Tap Yard owner Zack Medford. “Christmas traditions are magical, and we truly love providing this holiday favorite for families all over the Triangle to return to year after year.”
This year, the Trolley is hosting several tours fit for all age groups, whether your kiddo is hoping to meet Mr. Claus or your crew is looking for a unique way to get in the spirit(s). Here, see a rundown of this year’s holiday offerings that are sure to deliver a tree-mendous time. Sleigh! greatraleightrolley.com/christmas
