Take A One-Of-A-Kind Tour In New York With Historic Albany Trolley Tours

Learning more about the Empire State is something that, as New Yorkers, we find to be a fascinating past time. Down in the quaint city of Kingston, you can check out the Trolley Museum of New York where you can enjoy amazing trolley rides around the area’s waterfront and dive into history. Those who continue to travel north along the Hudson River though, you’ll find that Kingston isn’t the only city to offer wonderful trolley rides.

We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date. If you know of a local business that could use some extra support during these times, please nominate them here: onlyinyourstate.com/nominate
