The journey of the Sunshine Trolley began with a single vehicle sourced from Drumheller. Since then, it has grown to include trolleys from Newfoundland and Texas, each carrying its own story. The Trolley is more than just a means of transportation; it’s a cherished part of Medicine Hat's tourism scene. This unique mode of transport allows visitors to hop on and off at key attractions around the city. With three trolleys now in operation, the service has expanded significantly, catering to both locals and tourists alike.
In addition to its regular routes, the Sunshine Trolley also hosts seasonal tours such as the Holly Jolly Twinkle Trolley during the holiday season or special haunted Medicine Hat tours in October. These themed rides provide a unique experience that showcases the city in a festive light.
Tickets can easily be purchased online via Medicine Hat Tourism website, making it convenient for anyone looking to explore Medicine Hat's sights. You can also book private tours for special occasions like family reunions or corporate events.
