Clearwater Jolley Trolley Review

Overall the trolley is very convenient and a great idea. Wearing masks was very frustrating since it's pretty much open air. We had one driver that was extremely rude and nasty.

Great way to get around the area of Clearwater Beach and areas both north and south without having to drive...and pay for parking! They arrive at their stops very punctual on every 30 minute intervals.

Very handy to jump on when needed. The schedule needs updated for the last stops though. Got stuck and had to wait forever for a very expensive uber ride. Drivers are very friendly and assist wherever they can.

We rented a private Jolley Trolley to shuttle guests from our wedding reception venue to the ceremony and then back to the reception since our ceremony site had limited parking. The trolley was an affordable way to make the logistics of our two locations in downtown St. Pete much easier for our guests! There was a bit of confusion with communication and some updates the week before the wedding, but everything was fully resolved a few days prior. Our driver Kathleen was excellent, flexible, and great with communication a few days before the wedding and all through the rental time. She was a great driver and transported all of our guests safely! I would highly recommend the Jolley Trolley for your event!

What a great compliment your Clearwater experience. Leave your car at the hotel and jump on the Trolley. They'll tell you where to get off if you need it.

In general, I LOVE riding the trolley...the price is right - and now it's even free due to the COVID - you have a huge 'picture window' to view the sights, and you can't beat the ride across the Causeway! As a local Clearwater resident of 17+ years, the drivers were much friendlier in years past than they are now. A new breed it seems has sprung up (and I even saw one trolley car driver be downright rude with fellow passengers .) Not cool. I would rate 3.5 stars due to this if I could. Easy to rectify though: Jolley Trolley management just needs to train their drivers in this area and/or hire a friendlier, more mannerly bunch!
I'd love to see a 5 star rating across the boards for this outfit!!

These trolleys move quick. Reliable. Drivers are nice, helping everyone get where they need to go and understand the routes. Very cautious about capacity and not crowding the bus.

My daughter always LOVES seeing the Jolley Trolley and was extremely excited to ride. We planned our trip in Dunedin and double checked all the details carefully. Waiting at our stop, the trolley blew right past us! Not sure if the list of stops is out of date online...I promised my daughter we would ride another day.

This is a very convenient service but more Trolleys are needed on the weekends. We waited almost an hour for a trolley to arrive, we were lucky to be at the front of the line because only 4 people got on. We went by 3 more stops and no one could get on. Many people left standing on the sidewalk to wait another hour? I hope not!

The Jolly Trolley is such a convenient tourist service to get from downtown to Clearwater Beach. It s subsided so only $2.50 to hop on and off all day and it s free if you board at City Hall or the mariner.
I had time to waste so went for the ride around the South beach area then got off and walked about the beach front then on again 45 minutes later.
It looks cute in a retro fashion and my driver was friendly.
