SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY (08/10/2009)(readMedia)-- Because of the popularity of the San Francisco style trolley car sightseeing trips, Karen Golden, president of Horsin' Around Trolley Tours has announced additions to the tour schedules. "We've found that our riders are having so much fun and learning so much about Saratoga Springs that we've added theme tours and a shuttle to the Race Course while keeping the basic tours. For our riders who like to snack on something special, we've also added the "Original Saratoga Chips" on board the trolley for $2 a box."
