Getting around Douglas by Tram

Enjoy a ride on one of the horse drawn trams In Douglas - the world's oldest horse tram service in continuous service. Linking the Manx Electric Railway terminus at Derby Castle with the Sea Terminal, the route is nearly 2 miles along Douglas Promenade and forms an important public transport service for locals and tourists.

There are marked tram stops along the edge of the promenade for user's to board and exit the trams, and you can buy your ticket on the tram.

Horses are bred specifically for the service and on reaching retirement graduate to the home of rest on the outskirts of Douglas, where they can be visited by the public. Children will love a ride on the trams and the horses are very friendly and do not mind a gentle pat.
