Always a Wildwood classic. If you've been here, you know it "watch the train car please watch the tram car". read more

The Tram car should not be counted on for a return trip that starts at 16th street. I have been down all summer and fail to have a return ride back to 16th street with my handicapped wife. It is amazing. read more

Ah the world famous "Watch the tramcar please" horn. Wildwood is the only boardwalk with a tramcar that brings you up and down the boardwalk. It has been around since the beginning more or less. They have received a few updates over the years. I believe that 2 of them are still the original cars and cabs. The employees aren't the most friendly, or have the best memory sometimes. I cannot tell you how many times they tried to charge me multiple times for a single trip! I do now know of a way they could fix it other than a sensor that they have to manually turn off when someone sits down? The fare is $3.50 one way. Its a little pricey for such a short ride. I know the prices wont come down sadly. They do offer some discounts! Bulk ticket books at a decent discount, but still the cheapest is $2.50 one way. from opening till 5, they offer a wristband for $7. They could probably offer an all day one for $10 and still make plenty of money! They don't advertise the wristbands much so you have to know about it or go to one of their store fronts on either end... All in all, a lot of fun to be on! And pretty comfortable also. read more

[729] The fastest way to get from one side of the boardwalk to the other is the Tram car which likes to say "Watch the Tram Car please" It's $3.50 per person one way no matter how far you need to go You can prebuilt discounted ride books in the spring which is great since they never expire. Best way to go I'll definitely use them again read more

"Watch the tram car, please" "Watch the tram car, please" "Watch the tram car, please" This phrase was stuck in my head for the past month, I thought I just got over it, but NOOOOO, my inner devil took over, and made me want to write a review!!! And now, again, it will annoy the hell out of everyone I know. I took my fellow Yelper, Dee M's advice and tried to satisfy the child in me, and went on a ride. A one-way ride cost $3.00 and run from North Wildwood to Wildwood Crest end. On that ride, I had the pleasure to interact with one of the tram car attendants, Shereca, A very friendly Jamaican exchange student. I got on the tram car and paid in cash, but apparently, they sell tokens at the tram office. Four Yelps. read more

See all

Have a bunch of left over tickets and some rides on the app. Can't use them because there's not enough trams. Never going the right direction when there is one. And the locate trams on the app doesn't work so it's no help. And they shut down at ten. They've been almost useless all week and even worse now that it's the weekend read more

Spent the $20 for my girlfriend and I since she is currently going through respiratory recovery from an incident. They were always polite and steady timing up and down the boardwalk. A gust of wind caught my girlfriend's baseball cap and blew it off the tram. The conductor at the back, Justin, was nice enough to signal the driver to stop and he ran back for it and brought it to her. Kudos for terrific guest service read more

Hi, I am Bob from Rampage Trailer Co and I was commissioned to build new tram cars for the Wildwood Boardwalk. We have built 10 new cars 5 in 2007 and 5 in 2014 The original ones were built by the Greyhound bus co for the 1939 worlds fair and were sold and brought to Wildwood by Mr Ramagosa and used for boardwalk transportation.

The day they change the tram cars in any way, especially the iconic "Watch the tram car, please" recording, is the day Wildwood will cease to exist. Luckily, that's unlikely to ever happen. The Tram Cars are what makes Wildwood the Wildwood we have all come to know and love. My parents were too cheap (i.e., smart) growing up to ever let us ride on the tram cars as kids, but now that I'm grown up (i.e., old) and have kids of my own, I'm like, "f*ck it, we are riding the tram cars all the time." There's no better way to get from one end of the boards to the other and fit in all three ride piers along the way. If you're smart, purchase a few books of tickets and don't lose them. The tickets never expire, even if the cost of a tram car goes up. read more

"Watch the Tram car, please. Wh wha watch the tram car please"! If you spend enough time on the Boardwalk @ Wildwood you will wake up in the middle of the night with this voice in your head! Seriously a great way to get around especially if you have young kids. We typically used it every night either on the way to or the way from! Only complaint is that there could be a couple of more tram cars on the track as sometimes the wait can be a bit long! read more

When you have 4 kids with prizes and have to.walk the whole boardwalk let's see you say no :)

Do not, repeat, do not buy your tickets ahead of time. You'll get stuck with them when the trains are full and you end up walking. They do not run as frequently as they used to, and are jammed. Not a flipping seat open after waiting 20 min for one. So after making the round trip on foot (x5) three times, I asked for my money back at the office--($50) for the ticket book. No refunds. What a Schlock business. read more

We walked from one end of the boardwalk and did not want to walk all the way back... So we took the tram car back to our condo. It was a quick and fun ride. It's great they will stop anywhere you want too. The price wasn't bad at $3 each way. read more

Don't expect to always get back from where you started even if it is before midnight (their supposed closing time). They won't even let you on if they somehow decide to close early and are driving their drivers to drop them off right near where you need to go. The manager was Susan on 8/18/2018. She was not helpful at all, even in person. read more

The tram car is a must do in Wildwood. I think of it as Wildwood's logo! Watch the Tram Car Please! Interesting fact: The prerecorded voice on the tram car was recorded in 1971 by a woman named Floss Stingel. Search it on Google to see a picture of her by the tramcar. read more

The Tram Cars are the best! Ocean City MD has a goofy jeep pulling wagons. Atlantic City has baskets with wheels. The WW Tram is iconic and everybody loves it! AND it has a great history! The boss of the trams is a guy name Gig who was a train conductor so he really knows how to run the trams as a little train system The thing to watch for is the end of night runs that can be very busy and if you are in the middle of the Boardwalk there may not be seats left. Additionally when things slow down the trams go to bed and can leave you on the far end. I always ask when the last trams are running so I can catch one. read more

"Watch the Tram car, please. Wh wh watch the tram car please" The recording is iconic and totally says you are at the shore!! Think about the boardwalk without hearing or seeing the tram car..... Hard to do, isn't it?? read more

Nothing says Wildwood like a Tram Car.. Iconic Wildwood feature.. Love em

I rarely use it as I prefer to walk everywhere unless absolutely necessary, but, they do get you from one end of the boardwalk to the other (about 38 blocks) and everywhere in between for a cheap. I'm pretty sure kids under 6 are free,too. read more

Watch the tramcar please! One of my favorite sights when I go to Wildwood and I enjoy the ride along the Wildwood Boardwalk.

Thank god for this tram. We walked all the way to the beginning or the end of the boardwalk depending on how you look at it. And although to me it didn't seem like we walked too far apparently we had and it was 1115 at night hoped on the tram and for $ 3.00 a person it took us to the area we started from basically the other end. So simple to stop wherever you want you just raise your hand. Great idea for transportation on the boardwalk. read more

My whole family and myself rode the tram car today. The driver was wonderful. However, I have to say you should keep an eye on whoever the older, large man is that directs the traffic of the tram. He was beyond mean and rude to our driver. Not to mention the way he spoke to our driver in front of all of us including everyone else on the tram along with people walking on the board walk. I had to bite my tongue to not say something to the rude man myself. If I operated a tram ride service on a busy board walk full of people/tourists I would want to know the way my employee treated their peers. Absolutely horrible. read more

As much as the tram car is an excellent form of transportation to get from one end of the boardwalk to the next, after what I experienced this weekend I will never ride on one again. We waited an hour for the tramcar because all the ones that passed us were crammed full, so clearly more tram cars are needed. So we get on, go exactly one block and we see an elderly lady, who was by herself, fall on the cement steps outside of the convention center. Her legs were above her head, wrist twisted, and she couldn't get back up, my friend and I start screaming for them to stop, we get out to assist the lady. While we were helping the lady the tramcar ppl sold our seats, with our bags still on the tram! And said just call an ambulance we gotta go! Fortunately one of the people In my group stopped the tram so they could not leave with all our stuff! The employees on this tram, there were four, clearly do not care about anything but keeping the trams moving. A total disgrace and I am totally appalled at their lack of humanity. I wish I could give them zero stars instead of one. read more

If I could give them less than one star, I would. I spent my summers in Wildwood for over a decade, and the tram was wonderful. I don't know what happened. Not only do they only send one or two trams an hour after they've been jam-packed full at the end of the Boardwalk, not only did they replace all the workers with Chinese immigrants who barely speak English (and are probably paid pennies), but they don't stop and pick anyone up along the way any more. Four times in one day, trams with open seats drove right by as I tried to flag them down so I wouldn't have to make my 1-year-old walk in the heat. She ended up getting sick and puking all over me because the trams refused to stop. During the whole week I was here, I was only able to get on the tram three times, after paying $50 for their "discount" book of 25 tickets. They refused to refund any of my money, even though they did not provide the service I paid for. In fact, they were downright nasty when we explained the problem, and they turned off comments on their Facebook page after two people in a row left complaints similar to mine. Their discount tickets are a way to rip people off now, nothing more. It's sad that what used to be a great service is now little more than a scam. read more

love riding the tram car in wilwood,wish you could purchase a day pass instead of paying a price for one way.
