Very well-organized. I could not have driven, found the places and parked for the price of the ticket. No hassle is worth the price of the ticket. Lunch was very good. |

We enjoyed this trip very much. Starting with, Greg, our bus driver for the day was wonderful. He shared his knowledge of the area and suggested different places and things to do during our visit. We actually went to the Pirate Voyage show and to two different restaurants because he recommended them during our stay and were happy we went to them. We liked learning about the Charleston area it is beautiful and full of history. I would recommend this trip to others that are visiting South Carolina. |

Our planned trip included 3 stops. The first was the very excellent mule-drawn carriage tour of the Battery area of Historic Charleston. Our guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. The next activity was a boat tour of Charleston Harbor. With a boxed lunch in tow, our tour group was supposed to have reserved seating in the enclosed lower deck but discovered there weren't enough seats for all of us. I would have preferred seating on the top deck for better photographs, but it was not possible. The captain gave a very detailed and interesting narration during the cruise that made up for some of the disappointment. The third stop was at Boone Hall Plantation where we arrived very late due to traffic and road construction. We were not able to take the house tour or get on the tram, but the weather was beautiful and the scenery splendid. After making a phone call and sending an e-mail to Charleston Harbor Tours about our experience at Boone Hall Plantation, a partial refund was issued to us. CHT was responsive, polite and understanding. A good company to deal with. Pick a different time of year to go; apparently Easter week is one of the busiest for the Charleston area. |

Loved the carriage ride through historic Charleston and the ferry ride with great views of the amazing bridge and islands where the fabulous homes are located. We had time to shop in the local market place and then on to our final tour around Boone Hill Plantation, which was terrific. Our guides in each location, along with the videos we saw on the bus ride covered just about everything you would want to know about Charleston! It was a one day total experience. |

Very nice tour. Carriage tour was especially fun, we had a great driver and a very spirited horse, wish it could have been longer. Bus driver was very capable and drove safely. |

We were not impressed with the tour as we thought it was expensive for the time we had in Charleston The weather did not help as it was very wet and we didnt see much on the boat trip for the mist |

We both enjoyed the carriage ride and boat cruise. However we could have used more time at the plantation as you had to decide which activity you want to go on as the house tour, slave house exibit and tram ride over lapped each other. We did partake in the plantation house tour and slave house exibit and show but had to leave the Gullah show early to catch the bus back to Myrtle Beach. |

Bus was an older coach with uncomfortable seats for a total of a 4 hour trip to and from Charleston. Upon arrival in Charleston, we had to wait approximately 1 hour for the arrival of the carriage for the tour of the city. Due to this delay, we did not have an opportunity to visit the market; something we had looked forward to. Boat cruise was relaxing and the provided lunch was tasty. Tour of Boone Hall was interesting. |
