| You need to get closer to the objects being discussed. Also, the captain's voice was attrocious. |

| The harbor ride was nice. I recommend, for your benefit, that during slow times, you only run the tour 50% of the scheduled times or less. I sure it was expensive to take the tour boat out with less then 20 people. People are understanding and you can't stay in business without making money. The boat was practically empty. |

| reasonably priced, and the tours were worth it especially if you like history. It was a great way to see Charleston in a short amount of time |

| We bought the Harbor Tour and Horse-drawn Wagon Ride combination package with Charleston Harbor Tours.
We checked in as directed at dock area and was assigned a Harbor Tour time, and a Horse Drawn Wagon Ride time.
We went to the Horse Drawn Wagon Ride stables, but were told that they were full for the day, with no chance to get that ride in.
After some "discussion", the young lady was kind enough to refund part of our money for the Horse Drawn Wagon Ride.
We then paid an additional $16, above our refund amount, for a Horse Drawn Wagon Ride with another carriage company (Old South Carriage Rides), and was loaded onto the next wagon ride.
This left us plenty of time to return to the dock area, and to complete our Harbor Tour with Charleston Harbor Tours.
Had it not been for the young lady's bending of the rules and refunding our money ($68), we would have lost that amount, plus the $16 extra, for a total cost to ride on a Horse Drawn Wagon Ride of $152 for 4 people.

| We truly enjoyed the Charleston Harbor Tour especially the gentlemen that was the commentator, he made the trip exciting and fun. We were surprised how far into the harbor we went, which made the tour worth every dollar.
We had a great guide on the carriage tour and he had a wonderful "Low Country Accent". He was extremely knowledgable with a great sense of humor. Being a horse lover I am always concerned with the well being of the horses. It was a relief to see that the horses were well taken care of, otherwise I would not have gone on the carriage ride.
Thanks for being such a fun part of our 4th of July trip to Charleston....

| The carriage ride was with the Old Towne Carriage Company- they were great. The harbor cruise was on the Carolina Belle and it was just okay. I would suggest a different harbor tour and just skip the combo purchase. There are five different carriage companies and if you plan to travel during high season it would be better not to have a reservation. Just find the one with the shortest wait time...it gets crowded. |

| The Captain on the Harbour Tour was so informed, you could tell he loved Charleston and his job, it was easy to get caught up with everything he had to say. Our entire Family loved this Tour, and we had a 4 year old with us.The Captain pointed out dolphins dancing alongside the boat, his southern speech and hospitality made you want to stay forever and listen to him talk. For our Carriage Ride, we had a History buff, his excitement was contagious, he had no problem pulling over and getting into the History of the City. the delightful part of both tours, is we would (and will) do them again next time we are in Charleston. Highly,highly recommended..... |

| You guys at Charleston harbor tour and carraige ride are extremely fortunate to have Terry as one of your guides.She was very, very knowledgeable in the Charleston history as I also have studied for years.This lady was a 100% class act very professional and articulate in her description of the area.My wife and I both have recommended this ride with your company and we hope that they will be as lucky as we were to have Terry and Jake {the horse} conducting it.
Thanks for a great experience!

| I went on the Harbor Tour first and as soon as we arrived it began storming pretty badly. We still went on the tour because we could not be refunded, but the weather became worse and worse and we were stuck in the middle of the storm. The storm was so bad we had to go inside and could not see the things the tour guide was pointing out to us due to the rain/fog. Other than that, the tour was great. It's interesting to see the city and surrounding areas by boat, so I'd definitely recommend it. Just make sure it's going to be a nice day when you book your tour.
The carriage tour was fun and interesting. I wished we had seen more, but you're only allowed to go in certain "zones" and you never know which zone you're going to get until the ride begins. The tour also lasts about an hour, but the hour goes by rather quickly. The tour guide was informative and funny, and it was overall a great time. |
