Narrated Scenic Tour on the Minneapolis Trolley
Get ready for an unforgettable ride through the heart of Minneapolis aboard our charming vintage trolley! This isn’t just a tour—it’s a front-row seat to the jaw-dropping history, breathtaking vistas, and river-powered energy that turned a rugged frontier town into one of the most dynamic cities in the country. You’ll roll past soaring skyline views, iconic landmarks, and hidden gems as we explore the five original Districts that joined forces in the early 1900s to create the bold, bustling Minneapolis we know and love today. From the mill-powered might of the Mississippi Riverfront to the swanky theaters of Downtown, every district has its own story—and you’ll hear them all. This is more than just sightseeing—it’s time travel with a twist of adventure, a dash of drama, and a whole lot of Midwestern charm. Whether you're a history buff, a selfie snapper, or just here for a good time, the Minneapolis Trolley Tour is your ticket to the soul of the city.

Minneapolis Skyway Walking Tour
A great tour year-round, especially if you're visiting in the winter months! Minneapolis is home to the largest, contiguous skyway system in the world! Originally designed to counter the 1950s post war suburban boom by revitalizing the city's retail core, today the second story walkways connect 80 city blocks and meander more than 9 miles. This is a great way to see the city - inside and out - during cool weather, hot weather, rainy days and the brutally long Minnesota winter, so pretty much year-round! There are so many treasures within downtown's unique architectural landscape, and the skyway system is sometimes the only way to see them. The skyway is such a huge part of our city's identity, the Replacements even wrote a song about it, aptly named Skyway. Choosing Mpls City & Skyway Tours, you are supporting a local, woman-owned small business with a big heart. (Please note, this is a walking tour. We will walk up to two miles, with breaks. Wear comfortable shoes and bring water.)
