Overview
Guided Tours
The Grand Strand is more than just a popular vacation destination full of resorts and modern attractions. Amid all the amusement parks, waterslides and, of course, the white sandy beaches, there are scenic vistas, beautiful natural landscapes, and interesting local history. With a number of guided tours available in the area, visitors (and locals) are able to appreciate often overlooked sights and details sometimes lost in the hustle and bustle. With tours covering everything from local history to up close encounters with local wildlife, you may gain a familiarity with the area that is well worth the small average price of the tours offered. From casual open-aired Jeep tours, steeped in unique local trivia, to serene Jet Ski and dolphin excursions just off the Carolina coast, you might spend your vacation letting others lead you. Courteous and knowledgeable guides are eager to answer questions, whether you’re new to the area or have been visiting for years.

Sure, you can always go explore Brookgreen Gardens on your own, but did you know you can go on a tour of the gardens with an educational guide? Brookgreen Gardens offers guided tours of the gardens daily so that guests can learn all about the history and the beauty behind this favorite attraction.
