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. 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.

The guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. She told the group things about ghosts that I did not know. The driver was very nice. The trolly was clean. I enjoyed the overall experience.

Thank you so much! It was a pleasure to share the stories with you. By the way, the portrait I hope to see in Camas is of Alice, but I bet you already guessed that.

I am so glad that you enjoyed it! I love sharing these stories. You're right. You can easily spend a day at the wonderful Pawleys Island Hammock Shops with their unique shopping, dining, and lovely location where they welcome you and your pets to even just walk around and relax. We pack a lot into the two-hour trolley ride when we take guests a 1/2-hour south of The Market Common in Myrtle Beach. Our three brief stops serve as merely an introduction to the places that have been dear to me all of my life. I do hope you and the others will be able to return to that area and spend the time all of those places deserve. It was a pleasure to have your group aboard and I hope you can join us in the future on our other three tours.
