Alexandria’s Free King Street Trolley
Save gas when you visit King Street in Alexandria by using the FREE King Street Trolley.
Old Town Alexandria has blocks and blocks of unique shops and not your typical chain stores you find in the mall. There’s countless specialty boutiques, antiques shops, clothing stores, art galleries and a wide range of places to dine, most that let you leave your car behind and visit on foot or by hopping on the free trolley.
The King Street Trolley runs up and down King Street, Alexandria’s main street, and runs daily (10 a.m. - 10 p.m.) about every 15 minutes. It starts near the Potomac River waterfront up King Street to the King Street Metro subway station. The ten trolley stops are generally two blocks apart, so you never have to walk far.
You can also walk from one end of the trolley route to the other in about 20 minutes.
