A tour that should not be missed when in Mrytle Beach - We enjoyed our tour with Catherine as she was so informed but added a bit of humor. She made sure to speak clearly and slowly enough for everyone to hear.

The beginnings of Myrtle beach! - A diamond in the rough tour! We’ve gone to Myrtle Beach for years and never knew the history of this wonderful place! Touring the area we know, with fresh eyes on its history was awesome! Kathryn our tour guide was so invested in the area history and did a phenomenal job welcoming visitors and guiding us through the creation of Myrtle Beach! Highly recommend this tour!

Don't miss, very interesting and informative, glad we went. - We were disappointed the trolley tour was cancelled, not enough people registered, however, was highly recommended we see the black school, it was on my bucket list as am a past teacher, very interesting and displays were well done, wish we had had more time there. The tour guide was excellent, Sherry, very open to questions, and then she told us it was her first day! We told her she deserved an A! Learned alot, especially inventions made by the black people, and information on the segregation.
