Dodge City Historic Trolley Tours
This trolley takes you around the area as an audio track gives information. The driver was great and he added more info about the area, plus he stopped and let us get pictures out the door at several spots. They go to the feed lots, which are smelly but crazy to see. The tour also includes Ft. Dodge and Boot Hill. You can’t get off the trolley anywhere, but it is a great way to learn about the area before you explore.
Must make reservations. The 130 service was sold 45m before it started. We had read the 20pg brochure on line ahead of time. We used local maps provides to do a walking tour around area. Found both sundials nearby. Area was not busy from a traffic and parking standpoint. Saw various landmarks on walking tour. See pics for samples. Did not get to ride trolley. Am sure the trolley is worth it.
Cross is up the hill along the road. The site is nothing fancy. You pull into a dirt lot to park then walk up a mowed path to the cross. When Coronado crossed the Arkansas River in the area he stopped and celebrated Catholic Mass. The cross celebrates the first Eucharist mass west of the Mississippi. That is really cool
Interesting tour, very informative. We saw huge amount of livestock and were given lots of information about the area. The 1.5 hours did feel a little bit long and the seats were a bit uncomfortable. Guide was great, friendly.
My trolley tour guide was knowledgeable and amusing. The trolley was clean and left promptly on schedule. The tour takes slightly more than an hour, and it includes public art and historical sites in Dodge City and Fort Dodge.
