We take the trolley quite often. Our kids absolutely love it. Over Christmas we did caroling on the trolley which was an awesome experience. Can't wait for it to start running again!
The only issue is when you are heading back South from Main beach it can take a while for the trolley to arrive and it is pretty crowded.

Perfect transportation for sight seeing and getting around Laguna Beach. Trolley stops are clearly marked. Drivers are very helpful in making sure you're on the correct line and also announce when to get off at the desired destination.

My husband and I recently stayed a week in Laguna Beach on a getaway. Unfamiliar with LB, we found the trolleys indispensable! We walked everywhere, but found when we needed a trolley one was there in under 10 mins. What an excellent service to the traveler! We hardly needed to drive our car at all once we arrived. Each trolley operator was kind, friendly, and drove us safely. 10/10 recommend!!

Love that they have this! We had a lovely time seeing the sites down and up the coast. It's super convenient to get from place to place without having to move the car but we just did a loop. My little one collapsed for a much needed nap - score!!!

I had a driver an adorable driver Sherrie Neal. She was the best part of the ride, do helpful and kind with everyone. Funny, upbeat and helpful. I was a bit down that day and got off the trolley feeling like a new person. She made my day and everyone else's on the ride as well. That was the best thing for me about the trolley. Be sure and keep her around, and let her know.

Love the concept, execution the worst. We were there 3 days and tried many times to use the service. Never a trolley in site. And then 3 would roll by within 5 minutes of each other. And then the trolley didn’t go places you would assume they would - such as Dana point. Makes no sense!

Limited hours and days of service are small prices to pay for "free" but there is also another bus route for a fee. Check the days and hours of service as the freebie bus reduces its services during off-peak times of year. But, if you are there when it is running, this is a no-brainer. Take it up to the Salt Creek stop and walk down to paradise.
Trust me, you gotta do this.

I love taking the trolley. It's free in the summer and the routes cover the whole town. Plus it's a great way to avoid traffic and parking hassles. Download the Laguna Beach City app and there is a Trolley Tracker. So you can see where the trolleys are and when they will come to your stop.

The trolley is a great way to get around as parking in Laguna beach is tough. It's a free service that stops frequently. All the drivers are friendly also.

We found that the trolley did not run on a regular schedule. I would come between 60 minutes to 90 to 120 minutes. There was a charge during the week, and free on the weekends.
Hours for today?

Does the trolley run in May and does it run everyday? Does it run all the way to Dana Point if we wanted to do the whale watch? Thanks.

I am not sure of the hours and limits, but you can get that from the Laguna Beach Tourist info office. It is their trolley.
