Myrtle Beach Military History Trolley Tour

The trolley tour takes guests around the Market Common District in Myrtle Beach that was once the former Myrtle Beach Air Force Base and an Army Air Corps airfield during WWII which also housed a German POW camp. It makes three stops at Warbird Park where military planes are on static display, the Gen. Robert H. Reed Rec. Center which has a small military museum, and the Norton General Aviation Terminal that displays military memorabilia. Guests are divided into two groups with each half enjoying a catered reception and historical presentation at Tupelo Honey either before or after the trolley portion of the tour. This tour was recognized by the local county's board of historic preservation. The talk at the reception will be given by a historic figure who helped shape the history of the Myrtle Beach Air Force Base. The trolley is enclosed and climate-controlled. GUESTS MUST BE AT LEAST 3 YEARS OLD FOR THIS TOUR. It is best that you book prior to the Monday before your desired tour.
