Jolley Trolley Transportation

Great option to get around the area. Signage at most of the stops is a bit of a struggle so have their website handy and you can track the trolleys and figure out timing. They have Tap to pay option for quick boarding and the drivers are very nice.

We booked Jolley Trolley to provide transportation for the entire wedding weekend and it was truly one of the best decisions we made during the wedding planning process. Nevada was such a pleasure to work with prior to the weekend; she was quick to respond to questions and worked on the timeline with my planner! The trolleys arrived on time, were decorated as planned, and the drivers were so nice and aware of the road / area. I could not be more pleased and would hire Jolley Trolley again in a heartbeat! I highly recommend.

No way takes forever plus if it’s going good they pull over and make you wait 15 mins and there are no restrooms anywhere. Windows are closed and one woman said she was cold and the air went off and we all over heated and Got motion sick. It was horrible! Honestly if you don’t care how long it takes or the temperature have fun! So Disappointed

We booked the Jolley Trolley for our wedding day transportation, and it was awesome! Our driver Debbie Schultz called us a week before the big day to finalize the route, and she was very kind, accommodating, and prepared to make our ride in the Jolley Trolley perfect! On the big day, she added thoughtful details in the trolley, which we loved. We also loved that we were able to eat and drink on the trolley and that there was enough space for our bridal party and families. The interior of the trolley is beautiful for photos as well. One thing was that our "just married banner" was missing from the back of the trolley, so if you book them and request this, I recommend sending Jolley Trolley a reminder about it closer to the day. Nonetheless, they refunded us for the missing "just married banner" right away. This was one minor missing thing though and otherwise, the Jolley Trolley was amazing and 10/10 we highly recommend it!

First time trying out the Jolley Trolley Coastal as an "alternate transportation idea" to get around the Clearwater/Clearwater Beach/Dunedin area. I had a boat to catch at Clearwater Beach and allowed for 2 hours for any delays. The fares are reasonable and the pickup times and stops plentiful. The trolleys were clean. Unfortunately, that is where the positives ended. From Dunedin and not knowing exactly what pickup spot to go to was aggravating. I went to 3 different Dunedin "Stop" locations and made 2 phone calls to their dispatch to find the right one that goes to Clearwater Beach. Once on the Trolley, I couldn't get the reader to scan my phone for the payment. The driver couldn't get it to work either. So, being persistent for 2-3 mins, the scanner finally read the Q Code and we were off. Finally made it to the Clearwater Beach Transit Center and arrived with less than a 40 mins for my boat trip. The major problem came when I took the Jolley Trolley back to Dunedin. No clear instructions on which Trolley Stop we should be to get back to Dunedin. One of the drivers at the Beach Transit Stop (where we were dropped off, earlier) ended up telling us that we had to cross the main street into Clearwater Beach, then walk a block to the far east side of the Marina Parking Lot to get back to Dunedin. We had to wait there in 90-degree temps facing the sun directly with little shade for 45 mins. Finally, the "right bus" to Dunedin came after 4 other buses passed by. Now onto a 40 min ride to Dunedin. NOT! We get to downtown Clearwater at the main terminal for buses and the driver got out of the bus W/O telling anyone riding that he wasn't leaving for at least 40 minutes. We just sat there...waiting and waiting. When he did come back (30 mins later) he pulled out a book he brought from home and started reading it for 10 mins. Not a word to any of us. Finally, he left to continue the Dunedin stop. Just after 5 mins of driving, he picked up a man and that man took over driving near Drew St and Sunset Point Rd. That took another 7 mins for this change over. The new driver then proceeded down Alt 19 only to stop to chat with a homeless person on the side of the road. He asked if she needed a ride. This wasn't a scheduled stop, but at least he tried to help her. After that unscheduled stop, we finally made it back to Dunedin. I couldn't get off that Trolley, fast enough. I was extremely happy not to have any plans scheduled after this trolly trip. After spending 2 hours on a very hard seat and the ridiculous delays-without an explanation and the minor hassles on the earlier trolly experience, I would NEVER consider taking the Jolley Trolley from Clearwater Beach to anywhere north of the downtown Clearwater area. Going to Clearwater Beach from Dunedin is okay but find another way back. I used Uber continuously for returns back to Dunedin after that fiasco with Jolley Trolley Coastal Route.

My family and I visited Clearwater, Fl. October 9th-14th, we tried taking this trolly several times, each worse than the next. Just waiting for one to stop was a joke. Then when it did actually pick you up they were rude and impatient. The last time was with the lady in the pictures I’ve posted. Normally I don’t post pics but this woman’s attitude was unbelievable. I actually wrote down what she said at one point during the trip. We had stopped at the bus station and we were all sitting just waiting(20 minutes) when she said to the couple seated behind her I can sit here as long as I want for all they know (I’m assuming her bosses) they think I’m using the restroom. Then at another stop got out and had a smoke break for another 20 mins. Again proof is in the pictures, we decided after taking a pic is was time to call Lyft. No issues with them! Call them if you want to get around Clearwater, you won’t be disappointed. Click on pics to see full pic!

We rode the trolley on Friday in Tarpon Springs. Our driver was fantastic, he had the whole trolley singing to and from first Friday! What a great guy!

I think Jolly Trolley is great. However, riding in one of those several times warrants some improvements. First of all, riders feel every bump. The wooden bench seats with no cushion on the back and 1 inch worth on the seat make for a rough ride. Then, you hear every rattle and bang for every bump encountered, It drowns out the weak music on the intercom. I asked how old these vehicles were, and the driver didn't know. I'd say at least- 20 years old! They look fancy on the inside, but it's not a glamorous ride. I'm only hoping they get updated someday. Revamp the suspension and give the riders the same cushion as the drivers.
