The Plantation tour was great, lots to do, lots to see and everyone was very nice. Plan to go again in the fall.
Harbor tour was very very slow, took way to long to explain things, there were kids running around screaming and playing so you could not hear the person talking and no one said a word to the kids to keep them calm.
The air inside the boat was hardly working so it was very hot. did not get close enough to the things they were showing to actually see them well (although they had enough time too) felt like I was stuck in over filled subway car.
It could have been enjoyable if they could have asked the kids to sit down and be quite and also if they actually got a little closer to the things they were showing. Hard to follow what the guide was saying cause he started talking about things before you got to them and then the next thing and it was impossible to follow.
Very disappointed that I waisted the little free time I had on that boat. |

This was a good price for the two activities. The harbor tour was informative, interesting, and a relaxing way to see the city. The plantation tour was an indepth look into history. Though it was vey hot and not much shade! My only complaint is that the two activities are no where near one another and that was not made clear when I bought these tickets. There was no transportation provided between the two. Had I known this, I probably would only have done the harbor tour. |

This was a nice way to spend a day in Charleston. We started the day with the Harbor Cruise and ended with the tour of the Plantation. Both were very informative; however, the Plantation tour was the best. After attempting to figure out what the tour guide on the boat was pointing out, we gave up and enjoyed being out on the water. Seeing the dolphins was very enjoyable! Overall, I would recommend both tours. You will definitely enjoy and the price is very reasonable. |

very enjoyable outing..we liked the harbor tour as much as the plantation tour..but being a horticultural therapist I probably enjoyed the latter the most. |

My husband and myself were on our 32nd wedding anniversary trip and the tour of the Boone Hall Plantation and the Harbor Tour was very memorable. We learned many facts about our state and the guide kept our interest. We would highly recommend these tours to others. |

Boone Hall Plantation was amazing! If you're a history fan ( and a "North and South" miniseries fan ) it's a must!
The harbor tour was very relaxing. Again, if you like history you'll enjoy it. Very informative. |

It would be very helpful to let people pick up tickets at either the plantation or the harbor. |

i really enjoyed the Harbor Tour and Boone Hall Plantation Tour, must see for all visitors to Charleston. I recommend that you do the tours early in the day during the summer before it gets too hot. |
