Galveston Island Tours Announces Electric Shuttle Tours
 
Locals and tourists in Galveston are seeing a peculiar vehicle running silently through the streets. The solar-paneled electric vehicle, which is part limousine golf cart, and part shuttle bus, is a wonderful and inexpensive way to tour specific parts of the island’s most attractive areas without any carbon emissions to harm our island’s beautiful environment.
 
 
What: The Electric Shuttle Tour bus
When: Saturdays, September 17 – January 7* @ 9:30 a.m. Tours are also available on request for groups of 5 ($75 minimum) or more (subject to availability) *No tours on December 24
Where: Ashton Villa Visitor’s Center located @ 2328 Broadway.
Tour Destination: East End Historic District Tour featuring Ike tree sculptures
Admission: $15. Electric Shuttle Bus seats about 12 people at a time. Tickets available on a first come, first serve basis.
 
Galveston Island Tours is a subsidiary of Galveston Historical Foundation. “The electric vehicle is part of GHF’s continued move toward greater environmental responsibility,” said GHF Project Coordinator Matt Pelz. “Another of its advantages is that it’s extremely quiet. The tour guide can speak to the passengers without difficulty being heard.” Galveston Island Tours Director Pamela Petty said that this tour would be different from others. “These tours will be topic-specific, more tailored and more intimate. Passengers will be able to get much better photos due to the design of the vehicle.”
