Affordable day passes let visitors explore wineries, breweries, and distilleries

Riders pay one daily fee to hop on and off all day, so they don’t have to worry about driving, parking, or planning.

Riders who book multiple days will receive $5 off each additional day, and the discount applies to the second day and beyond.

So, for example, one day costs $40 to ride the cruiser. But, if you book two days, it’s $40 for the first day, and $35 for the second day. If you book three days, it’s $40 for the first day, and $35 for each of the two following days, and so on.

Only one carry-on bag per rider is included at no charge, and it must be a TSA-approved carry-on size.

Additional baggage is $25 per bag. Bikes are $35 per bike.

Have fun discovering more of the shore this summer.
