Little Rock's free Metro Streetcar is a fun way to see a small portion of the city. The streetcar driver provides the narration while pointing out sites along the way, interspersing some history and some humor.
Little Rock is a city rife with history and I enjoyed how interactive the experience with the driver was. We were free to ask questions to enrich our understanding of the place and what we were seeing.
The Clintons footprints are all over Little Rock so, though it wasn't as historical as some of the other sites, I got a kick out of the driver pointing out the Rose Law Firm, where Hillary became the first female partner and, well, all sorts of other scandals seemed to stem from.
The route takes about 40 minutes and you're free to step off at any stops along the way. Or get on. A couple people were using the Metro Streetcar as a means of free transportation between Little Rock and Argenta (North Little Rock) and this, too, is fine.
The route takes you through downtown Little Rock and across the bridge to Argenta. I was staying in the latter, and hopped on right near my hotel (Wyndham). For a first time Little Rock visitor I'd say the Metro Streetcar is a must-do. read more
