Very Enjoyable

We have visited Charleston many times on day trips when vacationing in Myrtle Beach. Last year we moved to Myrtle Beach and recently spent the day in Charleston with our daughter and her family. We decided to return to Charleston for several days and take the harbor tour and the carriage ride. We found both rides to be very enjoyable and informative. The guides were very polite and friendly and very knowledgable of the area. We enjoyed these tours so much we expect to return again soon and will take these tours again. We highly recommend this service.

Harbor Tour/Carriage Tour
Wed, Oct 10, 07   1:30 PM Kokopelli Female 60-69 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The Harbor Tour was very enjoyable. I have only one complaint...that was the sound system. It made the narration difficult to hear and understand at times. I felt like I missed a lot of the info because of it. The rest of the tour was great. The crew was very friendly and went out of the way to make us feel welcome. The Carriage Tour was outstanding. The tour guide was very knowledgable and willing to answer all the questions we had. She pointed out many things of interest and made the whole trip extremely pleasurable. I really hated to see the trip come to an end. She even led us to an excellent place to taste our first bowl of she-crab soup. I have been sharing bits of information with friends and family since we came home.

Charleston in a day
Sat, Sep 29, 07   3:30 PM nbourne Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Family Without Children
We purchased the Charleston Harbor Tour and Olde Towne Carriage Ride combo tour package. In one day, you can cover most of the sites on the historic peninsula with this great deal. The carriage ride gives a wonderful overview for first timers. We then explored the market and walked our way to lunch passing many of the old homes. After touring the Edmonston Alston house we tried to get back to the Maritime Center for our cruise. The one glitch - extremely limited availability of public transportation. Plan at least an hour ahead to make it to your cruise on time. The $4 all day trolley ticket is probably a great option.

Great tour, especially for the tourist not familiar with the Charleston Area. Tour guides were very knowledgeable and made the activities even more fun. Highly recommend!

What a great way to see Charleston!

As out-of-state visitors to Charleston for the first time, and with only one day to visit, we were thrilled to find this 90 minute cruise. It offered us an opportunity to see quite a bit of the area and hear the history of the homes, forts, etc. We also enjoyed the narrated carriage ride that toured the historical streets. The carriage driver was witty and fun and made the ride very enjoyable. The homes were so beautiful. I truly recommend this combo package to anyone with limited time to visit Charleston and/or who is unable to walk a great distance.

Harbor and Carriage Tour review
Fri, Sep 21, 07   11:30 AM gldodd Male 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The Harbor Tour was outstanding. The narrator/captain was a local and he provided very interesting commentary. The Carriage Ride was a dissapointment. We were forced to wait in the carriage for 25 minutes while the City of Charleston decided which route to assign the operator. During this period, the narrator (a female from Seattle, I don' t remember her name) spent much of the time telling us what she didn't like about Charleston. After we actually got started, the tour and narration improved. I suppose I was really only interested in the history of the city, not the narrator's personal dislikes.

Enjoyed the tour

Everything was very enjoyable on the tour. The first carriage ride did not start until 9:35am and not 9:00am as we were told. Other than that, everything else was great.

A great way to see the city

Between the cruise and the carriage ride, we learned a lot about the history of Charleston(which wasn't on our agenda) in a laid back manner. Very fun and worthwhile.

Best tour on our 11 day tour of the Old South
Tue, Sep 11, 07   11:30 AM robertervin Male 70+ Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
MY WIFE AN ANOTHER COUPLE WERE ON AN 11 DAY TOUR OF THE "OLD SOUTH". CHARLESTON WAS ONE OF THE BEST STOPS AND THIS HARBOR AND CARRAGE TOUR WAS THE CREAM OF THE CROP. THE HARBOR TOUR GAVE A GREAT OVERVIEW OF THE WHOLE AREA IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE BY CAR. IT WAS THE GUIDE ON THE CARRIAGE TOUR THAT MADE THAT TOUR AND OUR TRIP SO GREAT. SHE WAS A MANY GENERATION CHARLESTONIAN. SHE HELPED TRAIN THE HORSES, OUR HORSE WAS NAMED BOBBY. SHE KNEW PEOPLE ALONG THE WAY AND HER ACCENT AND CONVERSATIONS WITH THEM MADE THE TOUR VERY PERSONAL. DISCUSSING HER DISTANT RELATIVES MAE IT ALL THE MUCH BETTER. I AM A RETIRED COLLEGE HISTORY PROFESSOR AND HER KNOWLEDGE OF THE CITY AND IT PAST WERE RIGHT ON TARGET.
