Overview

If you like history and want to know how Myrtle Beach was in the beginning and specifically during the years of the second world war, this trolley tour may interest you. It shares the city's origin story and tells what it was like to live there during WWII with U-boat threats off the coast and the arrival of German POWs. It makes stops at Myrtle Beach's first golf course, Pine Lakes International Country Club, and the Historic Myrtle Beach Colored School Museum. Guests gather in front of the Grand 14 Theater at The Market Common to begin boarding at 9:45 AM. The trolley is enclosed and climate-controlled. If you would like more of an introduction to the city's history, you may enjoy the Myrtle Beach History, Movies and Music trolley tour. Both tours were created to compliment each other in order to give guests a more comprehensive look at Myrtle Beach's past. 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.

Informative and Enjoyable

Published on Nov, 2024

The woman who led the tour was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history of the area. The tour of the historic Colored School was fabulous! Very compelling and thought provoking. We learned SO much about US history.

Super impressive

I am not a native but I have been here 30 years. Yet I learned many things about Myrtle Beach that I didn't know and saw many places I had never been. Our guide Kathryn was amazing and I plan to do all the other tours. One thing, bring a jacket as the trolley was chilly!

Great History Lesson!

Published on May, 2024

A great way to learn about how Myrtle Beach was involved with WWII. Katherine is a great tour guide and full of information.

Outstanding historical tour of Myrtle Beach - very informative and enjoyable

Published on May, 2024

Immaculate trolley - outstanding tour guide who was extremely knowledgeable. Very detailed and interesting military historical tour of Myrtle Beach - as well as wonderful trip to Black museum which was a bonus! Humbling to learn the black educational history of Myrtle Beach area, taking place in the original one room school house that was used for many years.

Fun Interesting Tour
