Yorktown’s trolley service is one of the best ways to see Historic Yorktown, and you can expect it back on the streets Saturday, March 17, in time for an exciting lineup of spring events at Riverwalk Landing. The trolleys are handicapped accessible, air-conditioned (a must in our humid summers!), and free. It’s the best way to alleviate the difficulty of finding a parking space close to the waterfront, especially during peak tourist seasons. Simply park at one of the many public parking lots in the historic area, hop on the trolley, and enjoy the ride.
The county’s three trolleys service a route that is roughly 20-25 minutes long. It begins at the Yorktown Battlefield Visitor Center and stops at the Victory Monument, Historic Main Street, Riverwalk Landing, Watermen’s Museum, the American Revolution Museum at Yorktown, along with a few other stops. The trolley drivers provide helpful information at each stop and allow the rider to focus on the scenery, the history, and where to have their next meal.
This is the 18th year York County has offered this service to the community. The trolleys can transport 28 seated and 19 standing passengers at a time, and transports approximately 90,000 passengers throughout Yorktown during a normal season.
