Are you thinking about planning a summer vacation to Wildwood, New Jersey for some fun in the sun with your friends and family? If so, make sure to add taking a tram ride down the famous boardwalk to your itinerary.

Sightseer Tramcars is a delightful way to check out the boardwalk and people watch from the comfort of your own seat. As you ride the tram, you’ll get a great overview of the scene while taking in the smells of classic food like fried dough and the sounds of the ocean.

Sightseer Tramcars is an iconic part of visiting Wildwood, NJ.

Another perk to riding the tram is that riders have the right-of-way!
