Heritage Trams

Blackpool Heritage Tram Tours invite you to enjoy an experience like no other as you take a ride along the world famous Blackpool tramway aboard a piece of moving history.

The Blackpool Tramway now has a fleet of modern low-floor trams to quickly and efficiently transport thousands of people every day.  However, the best of the iconic and original heritage trams, many of which are over 80 years old, have been retained and superbly restored, and these are available to offer you a traditional tram ride along Blackpool’s famous coastline.  Nowhere else in the UK can you still ride on a heritage tram on the line for which it was originally built, making your journey with us a totally unique experience.

Promenade and Coastal Tours depart from the special Heritage Tram Stop at North Pier and Tower, next to the tourist information centre in Festival House.

Illuminations Tours will start in September and operate each evening during the Illuminations (alterations during the Christmas and New Year period)
