It’s part food crawl, part local love letter. You hop on our vintage-style red trolley, Lulu, and we take you on a guided tasting adventure through some of the best locally owned spots in Central PA. You’ll meet the makers, hear their stories, sample their specialties, and explore the town in a whole new way.

 Most food tours last about 2.5 to 3 hours and include 3-4 stops for tastings, stories, and small-town charm. We keep things moving — but not rushed — so you have time to enjoy every bite.

Each tour is unique, but expect a mix of sweet, savory, sippable, and surprising. From homemade meatballs and artisan popcorn to chocolate-covered bacon or custom ice cream flights — we showcase the most creative local menus. We also offer alcohol-free options and can accommodate most dietary restrictions with advance notice.

 Tours typically begin and end at the Hershey History Center or another centralized location depending on the theme. You’ll receive full details when you book.

 Absolutely. We love hosting birthday parties, team outings, bridal showers, family reunions, and bachelorette adventures. Our trolley seats up to 25 guests comfortably (28 if you all know each other), and we can create a fully customized itinerary that fits your vibe — casual or classy, foodie-focused or bar-hop style. Check out our group tours page HERE or email us to start planning your perfect outing.

 Yes. Most of our tours are family-friendly unless otherwise noted (like pub crawls). Kids love Lulu, and many of our stops include sweet treats and fun experiences they’ll remember. Book the trolley here (https://shopyokl.com/book-lulu-the-trolley-for-your-special-event) for a trolley b-day party your kids will never forget. 

Our trolley does have steps to board, but we’re happy to assist guests who need help getting on and off. If someone in your group uses a wheelchair or has other accessibility needs, please reach out — we’ll do everything we can to accommodate..

Immersion marketing is the practice of surrounding people with a brand experience so they don’t just learn about it — they live it. For Yokl, that means you don’t just hear about a great place, you walk in the door. You don’t just see an Instagram post, you sip the wine, smell the candles, meet the maker. It’s not about pushing ads — it’s about pulling people in.

Both. And neither in the traditional sense. The trolley tours are the vehicle (literally) — but the goal is deeper. We’re helping entrepreneurs tell their stories, attract new customers, and strengthen their roots in the community. Instead of buying ad space, local businesses partner with Yokl to create experiences that build trust, loyalty, and word-of-mouth. It’s marketing people actually enjoy.

Because they are the backbone of every thriving town. Local businesses keep more money in the community, create more jobs, give more to local causes, and build the kind of unique places people want to live in and visit. Supporting them isn’t just a feel-good gesture — it’s smart economics and strong community-building.
