ALL ABOARD THE WATERFRONT CONNECTION SHUTTLE
Connecting Philadelphia and the Camden Waterfront For $2 Round-Trip!
Now, you can leave your car in the parking lot! For one low price, you can ride the Waterfront Connection Shuttle to and from the Independence Visitor Center in Philadelphia to Adventure Aquarium and the Battleship New Jersey on the Camden Waterfront for just $2 round trip. To help kick off Memorial Day Weekend, all riders are invited to ride the Waterfront Connection Shuttle for FREE Memorial Day Weekend (Friday, May 28 – Monday, Monday, May 31)!
Starting on May 28 and running through September 6, the Waterfront Connection shuttle will operate daily, making a stop at each location approximately every 30 minutes, with the first ride departing from Philadelphia’s Independence Visitor Center at 10:30 am and the last ride dropping off passengers back in Philadelphia at 6:15 pm. And with a cost of only $2.00 per person, round trip, the new Waterfront Connection shuttle is both convenient AND economical!
“Adventure Aquarium is one of several community treasures right here on the Camden Waterfront,” said Executive Director Greg Charbeneau. “Our goal in partnering with the Battleship New Jersey and the Independence Visitor Center is to create a convenient way for guests to travel over the Delaware River that is affordable, easy, and comfortable.”
The Waterfront Connection shuttle is the result of a collaborative effort by Adventure Aquarium, the Battleship New Jersey and the Independence Visitor Center, with support from various organizations including the South Jersey Transportation Authority. The goal of the new venture is to link visitors between Philadelphia and the Camden Waterfront by making it both convenient and cost-effective to cross the bridge.
"For only a $2 round-trip ticket, residents and tourists in Philadelphia can easily come over to see the Battleship and Adventure Aquarium," added Jim Schuck, CEO and President of the Battleship New Jersey. "Plus residents in New Jersey also have an inexpensive option to get to Philly this summer."
Tickets to the Waterfront Connection will also be included in the price of Adventure Aquarium’s Fish and Ducks package; a discounted combination package that allows guests to purchase tickets to both Adventure Aquarium and Ride the Ducks Philadelphia, a historic Philadelphia sightseeing tour that allows guests to travel by both land and water in one amazing vehicle. Fish and Duck tickets (including complimentary Waterfront Connection tickets) can be purchased at either Ride the Ducks™ Philadelphia (http://www.phillyducks.com ) or at Adventure Aquarium's box office.
