Private Tram Tours

The museum offers private 45-minute guided tours that takes passengers through the museum’s 80 acres on a 1.5-mile route to view more than 150 planes in the collection. The tours are narrated by experienced and friendly tour guides who highlight significant aircraft in the outdoor collection. It’s a great way to see the museum and enjoy a break from walking while learning about the aircraft.

Private Tram Tours are for groups that would like a private, one-on-one guided tour of the museum’s outdoor aircraft aboard our open-air tram. The tram can hold up to 35 passengers. If you need a wheelchair-accessible tram, the museum can accommodate that, however, the wheelchair-accessible tram can only hold one wheelchair and a maximum of 16 passengers. If your group is visiting on a bus and exceeds 35 guests, we can accommodate your tram tour on your bus as long as it has a PA system we can use.
