Seaton Tramway

A Scenic Journey for All Ages (and Dogs!)

Seaton Tramway’s historic, narrow-gauge trams run between Seaton, Colyford, and Colyton, following a scenic route through some of Devon’s most picturesque landscapes. Families and couples alike will love the novelty of open-top trams, and dogs are welcome aboard, making it easy to enjoy the day with your four-legged companions by your side. Kids can enjoy spotting wildlife along the estuary, from herons to otters, while couples take in the peaceful surroundings together.

It’s a holiday adventure that kids will love, complete with a visit from Santa, hot chocolate, and a magical journey to the “North Pole.” 

Throughout the year, Seaton Tramway also offers other exciting themed rides, like the Dinosaur Tram Adventure, where young explorers can hunt for fossils and hear dinosaur tales; the Pirate Tram for a high-seas adventure with pirate characters and treasure maps; and Storytelling Trams, where kids can sit back and listen to enchanting tales brought to life along the ride. These themed experiences add even more excitement to an already unforgettable day, making Seaton Tramway a fantastic choice for families with little adventurers.

For couples, the Valentine's Twilight Tram offers a romantic evening ride through the estuary at sunset, complete with soft lighting and a relaxed atmosphere. It’s a unique way to celebrate Valentine’s Day or simply enjoy a quiet, scenic evening together.
