Glide Through History: Our Family’s Segway Adventure in Myrtle Beach

When I heard about the Market Common Segway Tour in Myrtle Beach, I knew it was a must-try for my family. The promise of gliding through a historic area on Segways sounded like the perfect mix of fun and education. Here’s how our adventure unfolded!

A Sunny Segway Adventure

As a family travel writer, I’m always on the lookout for unique experiences that can be enjoyed by all ages. So when I heard about the Market Common Segway Tour in Myrtle Beach, I knew it was something my family and I had to try. The idea of gliding through a historic area on a Segway sounded like a perfect blend of fun and education.

The day of our tour was bright and sunny, perfect for an outdoor adventure. We met our guide, Angie, who immediately put us at ease with her warm smile and infectious enthusiasm. After a quick safety briefing and a few practice laps, we were off! The Segways were surprisingly easy to maneuver, and soon we were gliding effortlessly through the Market Common District.

Discovering History on Two Wheels

The Market Common area is steeped in history, having once been the Myrtle Beach Air Force Base. As we rolled along, Angie shared fascinating stories about the base’s transformation and the heroes who once walked these grounds. The historical markers scattered throughout the district provided a tangible connection to the past, making the experience both educational and engaging.

One of the highlights of the tour was Warbird Park, where we paused to admire the military aircraft on display. Angie took the time to explain the significance of each plane and the role it played in history. It was a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served here. My kids were particularly fascinated by the Wall of Service, which honors those who dedicated their lives to protecting our country.

Family Fun and Lasting Memories

As we continued our journey, we made a stop at Savannah’s Playground, a delightful space designed for children of all abilities. My kids couldn’t resist the opportunity to play, and it was heartwarming to see them interact with other children, making new friends along the way. The playground’s inclusive design is a testament to the community’s commitment to creating a welcoming environment for everyone.

Throughout the tour, Angie was fantastic at keeping the group together and ensuring everyone was having a great time. She even took photos for us, capturing moments that we’ll cherish forever. By the end of the 8-mile tour, we were all smiles, having enjoyed a perfect blend of history, fun, and family bonding.

If you’re planning a trip to Myrtle Beach, I highly recommend the Market Common Segway Tour. It’s a “must-do” activity that offers a unique perspective on the area’s rich history while providing a fun and memorable experience for the whole family.
