Review · MYRTLE BEACH
Myrtle Beach City Scavenger Hunt Excursion by Crazy Dash
Crazy Dash turns Myrtle Beach into a loose, phone-based scavenger hunt. You get a list of things to find, complete them in any order, and earn extra points through silly challenges such as funny faces and dancing. A live remote host can help when you get stuck, but this is not a traditional walking tour with a guide beside you.
I like the freedom to set your own pace and the low $10 per person price. I also like that the game can help first-time visitors notice places they may otherwise pass, while returning visitors get a playful reason to see familiar spots again. The main catch is simple: you need your own smartphone and a reliable connection to the app, and the experience may feel too generic if you want detailed Myrtle Beach facts.
Key details at a glance

- Find clues in any order: You choose the route and decide how quickly to move.
- Remote help is built in: A virtual host chats with your group during the two-hour activity.
- Silly tasks earn points: Expect photo-based and performance-style challenges, including funny faces and dancing.
- Private for your group: Only your party takes part, rather than joining a larger public group.
- Start at 1110 N Ocean Boulevard: You return to the same meeting point when the game ends.
- Bring your own phone: The activity does not provide an activity-owned smartphone.
What Crazy Dash in Myrtle Beach actually is

This is best understood as a self-guided city game with remote support. At the meeting point, you use the provided mobile instructions and app to begin. The app gives you items to locate around Myrtle Beach, along with challenges that can add points to your score.
You do not need to follow a fixed sequence. If one clue is inconvenient, you can skip it and work on another. That freedom matters in Myrtle Beach, where your group may want to pause for a view, stop for a snack, or adjust the route around the weather.
The remote host stays in contact through the game. If you cannot figure out a clue, you can ask for help rather than wasting a long stretch of your two-hour session. Still, the host is not physically with you, so you should book this only if your group is comfortable using an app and managing its own route.

Starting at 1110 North Ocean Boulevard

The listed meeting point is 1110 N Ocean Blvd, Myrtle Beach, SC 29577. The activity ends back there, which keeps the outing easy to plan before or after another Myrtle Beach stop.
There is no private transportation included. You make your own way to the start and move around the city on foot or by whatever local transport you arrange. The activity is near public transportation, but the supplied details do not specify a particular route, stop, or fare, so check your route before setting out.
You receive confirmation when booking, and the ticket is mobile. That means you should have your booking details ready on your phone and make sure your device is charged before you begin. The activity does not provide a smartphone for you.
The listed operating period runs from May 23, 2020, through February 16, 2027, with hours shown as Tuesday through Sunday, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The exact start time matters because the game lasts about two hours and the remote support hours are relevant if you have a technical issue.
How the two-hour hunt unfolds
The game begins with the app and a list of items to find. The clues are not presented as a fixed walking itinerary. You choose which one to tackle first, then submit your progress through the app as you locate each item.
That structure makes the experience less rigid than a standard tour. You can move toward the clue that seems closest, spend more time in an area you enjoy, or change course if your group is having fun with a challenge. I would treat the list as a set of targets rather than a strict route.
You earn points when you find the requested items. The app also shows a leaderboard comparing your group with teams across the country. This gives competitive groups an extra reason to keep going, while more relaxed groups can simply use the score as a running joke.
The activity is described as the provider’s most relaxed scavenger hunt. You are not expected to race from one clue to the next. That makes it a better fit for families and mixed-age groups than a timed contest, especially if some people want to stop and look around.
The best part: silly challenges with your own group

The extra challenges are where this activity gets its personality. The tasks can include funny faces, dancing, and other playful actions designed to earn additional points. They may feel awkward in public, but that is also the point.
I like this feature for groups that already enjoy being a little silly together. It creates something to talk about later and gives children or teens a role beyond simply following an adult from place to place. One family outing became a source of shared memories, and that makes sense: the unusual photos and goofy tasks become part of the day.
You should know what kind of fun this is. It is not quiet sightseeing, and it is not a serious history lesson. If your group dislikes posing for photos or performing simple challenges, some of the game may feel forced.
For the right group, though, the tasks can break up a normal walk along Myrtle Beach. They also encourage you to look beyond the most obvious beach activity and pay attention to places around the boardwalk, Broadway, and other parts of the Grand Strand.

Seeing Myrtle Beach through a clue list

The clue system can help you notice parts of the city that might otherwise blur together. The activity may lead you toward spots you already know, or toward places your group had planned to visit later in the trip. Taking the hunt on your first day could help you get your bearings and collect ideas for the rest of your stay.
That is one of the strongest practical uses of Crazy Dash. Instead of sitting down with a long list of attractions, you explore while completing a game. You can then decide which places deserve a longer visit after the hunt.
There is an important limit. The questions and clues may not always feel tailored to Myrtle Beach. One poor experience found the prompts generic, and the game stopped after the fifth mission. That means I would not book this expecting a carefully designed local history route or a complete introduction to the city.
The value is in the activity itself, not in expert interpretation. You are getting a playful reason to move around, not a local guide explaining the meaning of every stop.
A private activity, not a shared tour

Only your group takes part. This is useful if you want to keep the game within your family or friends and do not want to compete face to face with strangers. You can set your own mood, choose your own pace, and decide how seriously to take the points.
The private format also helps with the silly tasks. You may feel more comfortable dancing or taking funny photos with people you know. A group that enjoys playful competition can make the outing last the full two hours without needing much outside entertainment.
The tradeoff is that your own group must supply the energy. A traditional tour guide can fill quiet moments, explain local sights, and keep everyone moving. Here, the remote host can chat and offer help, but your party remains responsible for navigating, reading the clues, and deciding what to do next.
Is $10 per person a good deal?

At $10 per person, Crazy Dash is inexpensive for a two-hour activity. The price includes the game, all activities, the remote interactive guide, and GST. For a family or couple seeking a light afternoon diversion, that is a modest cost.
The value depends on what you want from Myrtle Beach. If you want a structured tour, local stories, transportation, or a guide walking with you, the price does not buy those things. You would need another activity for that.
If you see the game as a way to add a little structure to a city walk, the price is easier to justify. You are paying for the app, the clue system, remote interaction, and the extra challenges. The leaderboard and photo tasks may also stretch a simple stroll into a shared event.
A party of two pays $20 before any other costs. A larger family pays more, so think about how many people will actively use the app and join the challenges. Since the activity is private, the cost does not include a vehicle or any food, admission, or other personal spending.
App reliability is the main concern

The biggest practical risk is technical. The app is central to the experience, and the activity cannot work properly if you cannot connect to the link or the hunt stops loading. One failed outing could not connect at all, while another ended after the fifth mission.
Before starting, I would charge your phone, confirm that you have mobile data or a working connection, and open the instructions early enough to seek help if needed. Do not wait until the last moment to discover that the link does not work.
Customer support hours also matter. The listed activity hours are Tuesday through Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and one poor experience involved difficulty reaching support outside the available window. If something goes wrong, contacting help during the stated operating period gives you the best chance of fixing it.
The remote host is a useful safety net, but it should not be treated as a guarantee against every technical problem. If your group would be very disappointed by an app failure, choose a tour that relies less on a phone.
Who should book this Myrtle Beach game?
I would recommend Crazy Dash to families, couples, and friend groups that like light competition and do not mind looking a little goofy in public. It can work especially well on a first day in town, when you want to see several areas and get ideas for later.
It also suits repeat visitors. If you have already walked the boardwalk or visited Broadway before, the clue list and challenges give you a fresh reason to pay attention to familiar places. The game can turn a routine outing into a shared memory.
This is less suitable for anyone seeking a formal sightseeing experience. You will not have a guide beside you explaining Myrtle Beach, and the clues may feel too general for someone who wants strong local detail. It is also not ideal if nobody in your group wants to use a smartphone, take photos, or complete playful tasks.
Most participants can take part, and service animals are allowed. The activity is offered in English. Since only your group participates, you can decide how to handle the pace and the challenges within your own party.
Booking and cancellation details
The experience is commonly booked well ahead, with an average booking point of about 32 days before the date. That is a useful planning clue during a busy Myrtle Beach trip, though you should still check the available date and start time when you book.
Free cancellation is available if you cancel at least 24 hours before the local start time. Cancellations made within 24 hours are not refunded, and changes inside that window are not accepted. If your plans may shift, keep that deadline in mind.
My recommendation
Book Crazy Dash if you want a low-cost, flexible way to explore Myrtle Beach with your own group. The strongest reasons are the freedom to choose your route, the silly photo challenges, and the chance to spot places you may want to revisit later.
Skip it if you want a local expert, a fixed sightseeing route, or a fully reliable experience that does not depend on an app. At $10 per person, it is a reasonable gamble for an easygoing group, but you should arrive with a charged phone, realistic expectations, and a willingness to make your own fun.
