Overview

Take a half-hour ride south of Myrtle Beach on a climate-controlled trolley to the fishing community of Murrells Inlet, SC, and beyond. Hear the quintessential ghost stories that locals have grown up with, background on the pirates who were said to have frequented the local shores 300 years ago, and historical commentary on the influential families who lived in the area and helped shape our nation's history. IF YOUR OBJECTIVE IS TO SPEND TIME AT AREA ATTRACTIONS, THIS IS NOT THE TOUR FOR YOU. This 2-hour narrated tour serves as an introduction to wonderful places that we will be passing by that you'll want to come back and visit, while conveying a great deal of local folklore and history along the way. BRIEF STOPS, where passengers will hop off for just a FEW MINUTES, include The Pawleys Island Hammock Shops Village and at a photo-worthy overlook in Murrells Inlet. Board at 9:45 AM in front of the Grand 14 Theater at The Market Common. GUESTS MUST BE AT LEAST 3 YEARS OLD FOR THIS TOUR.

Very knowledgeable guide. Really knew stories very well. This gives you ideas of places to visit on days you don't want to go to Beach. Or if you'd rather visit historical sites.

Our guide was very knowledgeable, the pace was perfect, and the trolley temperature was very comfortable. The pick area was perfect and offered free parking with plenty of lunch options within walking distance after your tour. I highly recommend!

I thought the tour guide was outstanding! She was an excellent speaker and able to articulate her topic in a very interesting manner. I do wish we could have expanded the tour by incorporating more stops...

My nephew and I took this tour to today and absolutely enjoyed listening to the narrator give information about the ghosts and pirates. Purpose of the tour is to interest you on things to do and see and it was great. The few short stops serve to want to return and see the places at your leisure...
