Wings and Things

Craving bold flavors and a good time? Yokl, Inc.’s Wings and Things trolley tour through Hershey pairs mouthwatering wings with craft beer and classic rock tunes for a laid-back culinary ride.

Hershey, Pennsylvania—known worldwide for its chocolate legacy—is also carving a flavorful niche with Yokl, Inc.’s Wings and Things, a unique three-hour trolley tour that combines culinary adventure with classic rock ambiance. The town’s vibrant food scene meets a retro vibe as riders hop aboard a bright red vintage-style trolley and cruise through Hershey’s streets, sampling an array of wings bursting with bold, inventive flavors. From traditional Buffalo heat to smoky BBQ and chef-driven creations, each stop offers a distinct taste profile paired with craft beers or old-school root beer, making this a standout experience in the region’s growing food tourism.

This tour isn’t simply about wings; it’s an immersive cultural journey set against the backdrop of Hershey’s blend of Americana and local charm. The classic rock soundtrack — featuring AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, and Lynyrd Skynyrd — adds a layer of energy that turns the ride into a rolling concert as much as a food crawl. Guests learn fun trivia about wing lore and barbecue traditions, making it a spirited social event perfect for groups of friends, families, or anyone looking to enliven their visit with tasty bites and cold drinks.

Unlike many outdoor adventures, Wings and Things fuses culinary exploration with a breezy, seated experience that invites guests to savor local flavor without the physical exertion of hiking or biking. It enhances Hershey’s outdoor adventure landscape by offering an all-weather, accessible activity ideal for spring, summer, fall, or even chilly winter days. This tour’s blend of food, culture, and music defines a fresh way to experience a small town at its tastiest.

If you’re seeking a hands-on taste of Hershey beyond chocolate, Yokl’s Wings and Things trolley tour presents a vibrant, flavor-packed way to engage with the community and create memorable moments.
