City Loop Shuttle

Welcome to Portland, Maine

We’re excited to offer you a convenient and inexpensive opportunity to explore our Eastern Promenade, Historic Downtown District, the Art’s District, and the Top of the Old Port. The City Loop Shuttle operates in the port when larger cruise ships visit. Tickets can be purchased in advance online or anytime at the Visitor Information Center at the Ocean Gateway Terminal. The ride is not a narrated tour. A route map identifying each stop and what is featured at each stop is readily available. Riders are free to get on and off at any stop throughout the day. The City Loop Shuttle begins service one hour after ship arrival and concludes one- and one-half hours before departure on most days. More information is available at our Visitor Information Center at Ocean Gateway.
