Trolley Tour
Offered Monday-Saturday, plus Sunday, Sept. 3; See Calendar for Times
Don’t be green with envy on this trolley tour when you see how well the rich lived in the early 1900s in the most elegant part of town. You’ll see the broad streets and summer “mansions” on Cape May’s east side on this trolley tour – an area marketed as “New Cape May” at the turn of the 20th Century, for the merely wealthy to the fabulously rich. Tours begin and end at the Washington Street Mall Information Booth, where tickets are sold. 45-minute tour.

Whaling, wartime and wild weather. The remarkable maritime history of our seaside town has long defined the Cape May story. Board the trolley and rediscover the important places and natural phenomena that have shaped, literally and figuratively, the Cape May we know today. The trolley then stops at Fisherman’s Wharf for an up-close walking tour about Cape May’s commercial fishing industry on the docks at The Lobster House. Tour begins and ends at Washington Street Mall Information Booth. Tour is not accessible.
Adults $33, Children (ages 3-12) $25
