Just when you thought Downtown San Luis Obispo couldn’t get any more charming, the classic cable-car-style trolley rolls by. Covering the heart of Downtown SLO and its surrounding hotel areas, the Old SLO Trolley costs a mere 50 cents or 25 cents for seniors and disabled riders. The historic mode of transportation spans from the hotels on the north end of Monterey Street near Highway 101 to the intersection of Higuera and Nipomo Streets. With a regular Thursday evening route throughout the year and a seasonal schedule on Fridays and Saturdays, the San Luis Obispo Trolley offers passengers a convenient, car-free form of public transit. The San Luis Obispo Downtown Trolley is perfect for traveling to and from Downtown for dinner and shopping, even Thursday Evening Farmers’ Market, picking up every 20 minutes.
