What Is the I-RIDE Trolley?

The I-RIDE Trolley is a dedicated transportation service running along the iconic International Drive corridor in Orlando. It’s designed for visitors and locals alike to move easily between attractions, hotels, restaurants, shops, and more — all without a car. It’s a comfortable, fun, and affordable way to navigate the 11-mile (17.7 km) long stretch of Orlando’s busiest tourist district.

Operating Hours

Daily: 8:00 a.m. – 10:30 p.m.

That gives you plenty of time to explore daytime attractions, dine out in the evening, or catch a show without worrying about driving—or parking. The trolley runs continuously throughout the day, and no reservations are required.

Trolley Routes: Red Line & Green Line

The system has two main routes, each covering slightly different parts of I-Drive:

 Red Line

This is the most popular route, running north and south along International Drive. It reaches major attractions, outlet mall areas, restaurants, and entertainment spots. Red Line trolleys run about every 20 minutes.

 Green Line

This supports the Red Line and especially serves areas like Major Blvd and Universal Blvd, then rejoins International Drive further south. It runs roughly every 45 minutes.

Transfers

You can transfer between Red and Green Lines for free if you hold an Unlimited Ride Pass. Otherwise, with cash fare ask the driver for a transfer coupon when boarding.

 Finding Your Trolley Stop

Stops are marked throughout International Drive with distinctive poles. There are over 100 stops along the routes, so you’ll almost always find one close to where you are or where you want to go. Just check the official route map online or pick one up at a visitor center.

­Best Uses of the Trolley

The I-RIDE Trolley is perfect if you want to:

Visit shopping destinations like Orlando Premium Outlets

 Reach attractions such as ICON Park, SeaWorld or WonderWorks

 Get to dining and entertainment areas without driving

Save money on taxis/rideshares and avoid parking hassles

It doesn’t replace rideshare or local buses for routes outside the I-Drive area — like Disney World or Universal Orlando Resort — but it does get you close enough to connect to other transportation if needed.

Accessibility & Tips

• All trolleys are climate-controlled for comfort in hot or rainy weather. 
• They are ADA accessible with wheelchair lifts and designated spaces. 
• Food, drinks, pets (except service animals), and bikes are generally not permitted on board. 
• Arrive a bit early at stops during peak times — trolleys fill up quickly when attractions let out.
