Wonderful tour! Our guide was very informative, of history of downtown and all the homes/mansions leading up to the The Breakers! I only wish we had more time at The Breakers since one hour was not enough time to listen to the audio tour provided. Overall trolley was air conditioned and very comfortable. Highly recommend!
We were given 1 hour 15 minutes to tour the Breakers Mansion. We needed about 15 more minutes to be able to enjoy some additional stories offered with our audio tour. Other than that, a wonderful, informative tour with lots of great sites to learn about!
