Whether in marine, food and retail, maintenance or customer service, Cape May – Lewes Ferry team members continue to be tuned into the customers’ needs and laser-focused on their experience.   The goal is to exceed the customers’ expectations every day.   Shivers noted that because the award is based on guests’ reviews, it’s the ultimate seal of approval and a testament to the caliber of service that guests receive from the Cape May – Lewes Ferry team.

TripAdvisor, considered to be one of the prominent hospitality authorities, shares travel content about experiences, accommodations, restaurants and destinations.

The Ferry marked its 60th Anniversary earlier this month.
