Myrtle Beach Area Ghosts, Pirates and Historic Families Trolley Tour

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.

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.

The stories were amazing and full of local culture and history. I wish the stops were a little more to see and a little more interesting.

I am so glad that you enjoyed what this tour is all about, our folklore and history. The three brief stops serve as a mere introduction to that wonderful part of the world a 1/2 hour and more south of Myrtle Beach. In this two-hour tour, we give you the information that you need to return to the area on your own and experience how amazing these places are on your own. It would take days to spend quality time at each of the locations you learn about on the tour. It is well worth it to come back again and again to visit them all. Thanks for being a part of our experience.

Thank you for this. You all were such a pleasure to have aboard. I am so glad that you enjoyed it. I do love telling these stories. You're right, Marvin Grant (aka The Hammock Man) is a treasure!
