Overview
Take a ride on the only horse-drawn tramway in Australia, and one of the few services to run throughout the year worldwide. Magnificent Clydesdale horses draw you along the causeway from seaside Victor Harbor to Granite Island.
The tram travels across the 630 metre causeway throughout the day taking passengers to picturesque Granite Island.
Commencing in 1894 by the South Australian Railways, the service attracts visitors from all parts of the globe. Whether it is the experience of travelling on heritage transport, travelling across the sea, going to the Island and experiencing the nature walks, the opportunity of seeing marine life in their environment or the joy of meeting one of our Clydesdales, the tram caters for all.
The Victor Harbor Tramway prides itself preserving and sharing the heritage of the Horse Drawn Tram Service.
All the horses have their own business cards - ask the Tram Driver for a card of that horse each time you ride.
Opening Times
