Pedal through Downtown and the Short North on an electric-assist Columbus trolley tour with music, city views, and partner-stop discounts.

About this tour

See Columbus from a lively new angle aboard an electrically assisted pedal-powered trolley. This 2-hour Columbus pedal-powered trolley tour rolls through Downtown and the Short North, pairing city views with music, good company, and the freedom to pedal as much or as little as you like.

Meet your captain and fellow riders, settle in, and follow the route through two of the city’s best-known areas. The electric assist helps keep the ride comfortable, while the onboard stereo sets the soundtrack. Along the way, the group can stop at partner bars and restaurants for special discounts. Bring your own permitted drinks if you wish, and enjoy the shared ride without needing to steer. Five seats do not require pedaling, and the trolley is fully enclosed from November through March.

With a captain, cooler, cups, and Bluetooth stereo on board, the Columbus pedal-powered trolley tour makes a memorable outing with friends. Gather at the downtown meeting point, complete your waiver, and get ready to roll through Columbus together.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 4.50 from 4 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Columbus
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.9.
