Hidden Cleveland Tours
-
Cleveland is full of hidden history and
architecture that sometimes seemingly goes undiscovered. In April
2009, the neighborhoods of Down & Aroundtown created the Hidden
Cleveland Tours. The purpose of these tours is to give people the
opportunity to explore these hidden gems that are typically off the
beaten-path and hear the stories and backgrounds of
locations.
Lolly the Trolley transports guests from one
"hidden" location to the next with stories along the way. At the
end of each tour the group gathers at a local restaurant for light
appetizers and drinks. Ticket prices are $25 per tour.

Cleveland is full of hidden gems...especially in the heart of
the city. The neighborhoods of Down & Aroundtown Cleveland are
full of amazingly beautiful buildings and stories, some of which go
unnoticed by the hustle and bustle of the passing city. The Hidden
Cleveland Tours are an annual set of Spring tours that were created
to give people the opportunity to get out of their house and
explore those hidden gems of the city.
Tours are led by a team of community tour guides and all
locations are connected by trolleys from Lolly the Trolley. All
tours take place on Sunday afternoons from 2-5pm and end with light
appetizers and drink specials at a local neighborhood
restaurant.
The dates for the 2011 Hidden Cleveland Tours are Sunday, April
10th and Sunday, April 17th. We will post details about locations
and registration once they become available. To be placed on our
mailing list for the Hidden Cleveland Tours, email Maura Reilly at
