There are certain things that are synonymous with Maine. The rocky coast, the many lakes, the lighthouses, and the lobster are just a few of the things that come to mind when people think about the state. Perhaps the most thought-about spot in the state is Acadia National Park. The region’s only national park is also one of the most gorgeous places in the state. While it’s accessible to all, visiting by car or foot isn’t always the easiest. That’s why we love the idea of this trolley.

Acadia National Park offers one of the most beautiful natural experiences in the state and seeing it is almost a must when in Maine.

Visitors can certainly drive into the park themselves, but we love the ease of hopping on Oli's Trolley, based in downtown Bar Harbor.

Oli's offers a variety of different tours in the area, but the one through Acadia is arguably one of the most beautiful.

Visitors can enjoy either a 2.5-hour tour or a 4-hour tour. Both options offer a great way to see the park, each with different stops and either more or less time to explore.

The 2.5-hour tour is great for people who'd like to see some of the highlights. It includes stops at the Cadillac Mountain Summit, Thunder Hole and Jordan Pond. Each stop is about 15 minutes, which allows for photos at some of the most beautiful spots in the state.

This is one of the best ways to get views from the summit of Cadillac given just how many cars make their way up during the summer.

The 4-hour tour offers those same stops as well as the Sieur de Monts Spring Area. Stops on this tour are about 30 minutes which means visitors can get those photos and enjoy some time walking around and exploring.

In addition to the stops, the tour offers views of plenty other beloved places in the park including Paradise Hill and Frenchman Bay.
