Relaxing away from the craziness of the beach - The people (and the Rottweiler!) are very friendly and the property is very peaceful. Sitting in the sun reading before the boat left was delightful. Agnes, the narrator on the boat, was funny and informative. This would be nice to do in another season too.

River tour - Fun informative tour on the Waccamaw River. Rick, Betty and Bella did a great job of showing us and teaching us about the river and all of the wildlife. The boat is comfortable with a bathroom. There is a small store with snacks and other items to buy. Boat ride is about 1 1/2 hours in length. This is a family owned business. Good to support this wonderful adventure in Myrtle Beach!

River of Dreams - We really enjoyed the trip. It can get a little cool, but we dressed for it. The tour guide did an excellent job of telling us about all the birds and alligators we saw, along with some area history. The captain also did his job well and maneuvered the big boat so well we got close-up views. I can’t recommend this trip more highly.

A Different Side of Myrtle Beach - The boat trip was so refreshing! After all the touristy parts of Myrtle Beach, it was awesome to see a completely different and natural side of the area. We learned loads of history and facts from the guide that truly made the trip special. We saw osprey, herons, turtles, vultures, and four different alligators - all in their natural habitat. This boat ride was the cherry on top to our beach vacation.

Our tour guide was a hoot! - Our guide was SOOOOO fun! Such a sense of humor. And the captain joined in when possible too! The tour was filled with information and a unique take on things. No gators this trip, but lots and lots of birds and turtles and even a snake in the tree. I would definitely recommend it.
