Book Your Own Party Trolley!





Step#1 Call our Charter Sales Dept and reserve a Trolley

773.648.5000

Step #2 Invite up to 32 friends to your worry-free night on the town. Gas prices are high. Parking is a hassle. Drinking and driving is unthinkable. Ta-Da! Chicago Trolley is the best option to take your group around the city.

Step #3 You'll need music! Prepare a mix CD or iPod playlist for background noise. Make sure you request a CD player on board if you bring a disc. IMPORTANT: In order to use iPods or other mp3 players with our Trolleys, you must first purchase a $6.00 cord from RadioShack.

Step #4 Check out THE CHICAGO BAR PROJECT for informed bar crawl ideas courtesy of legendary lush Sean Parnell. Sean breaks down the bar scene by neighborhood, type of bar, clientele, and just about anything else you might want to know (or not want to know) about boozing in Chi-town.

Step #5 You bring the coolers, cups, and drinks (no kegs please)--we'll do the rest.


Pub Crawl Tips

Think about the Drink. If we're picking you up from a restaurant or bar, you may not want to keep your coolers, beverages and cups underneath the table. Unless we're picking up from a residence or hotel, you might want to consider bringing the coolers/drinks to our Base ahead of time. On the day of the event, your driver will ice down the drinks and have everything waiting for you on the Trolley.

Less can be more. Some ambitious Pub Crawlers try to hit seven bars in three hours in different neighborhoods in Saturday night traffic. Until we perfect multi-dimensional travel, this approach is not always advisable. We're game, though.

Plan ahead. Some clubs/bars will be happy to give you free entry or drink specials. Waiting in lines for entry and for service is a buzz kill.

Mix it up. Like a fine meal or a good movie, you may want to toss in at least one unexpected spot for the sheer novelty of it. Depending on your tastes, unexpected could mean Cheesy, Dive-y, Upscale, or Anywhere-you-never-pictured-yourself-going before.

Be Decisive. 1. Your friends are partying! 2. They can't think when they're partying! What happens when the Group tries to vote on where to go next? See 1. and 2.

Win Win. The best part is that you're already on a mobile party lounge. This means you'll have an amazing time whether or not you leave the Trolley!
