If you have a lot of things on your vacation bucket list, a great way to see them all is to hop aboard a Pigeon Forge trolley!

Be sure to check out the various trolley routes and schedules so that you know exactly which one to board.

2. Saves You Money

All Pigeon Forge trolleys cost only $0.50, except for the Gatlinburg Welcome Center trolley route, which costs just $0.75. Children ages 3 and younger can even ride for free! You can also purchase an All-Day Pass from the Fun Time trolley Office for $2.50 per person. This is the more affordable option if you plan on taking multiple rides throughout the day. The cost of gas can really start to add up after driving around all afternoon to get to the attractions you wanted to see. You can avoid these costs or spend your extra money on the things you really want when you ride the trolley. Another bonus is that you won’t have to worry about finding and paying for a parking spot.

3. Reduces Stress

The Inn On The River is located right between 2 Pigeon Forge trolley stops which are only a short walk or car ride away, which makes finding and boarding it a breeze. Traffic can be stressful when you’re in the driver’s seat because you constantly have to watch the road and the other cars around you. The Pigeon Forge trolley is incredibly safe, so you can sit back and relax without having to think twice about these things.

4. More Time with Your Family
