| The whole family enjoyed the trip. It was a good length -90 minutes- and the guide was both knowledgeable and entertaining. The boat was comfortable and had both indoor and outdoor seating. |

| Captain was fantastic and provided a detailed (and interesting) description of the Charleston harbor. Was careful to point out the dolphins and how to view them. As a local from Charleston I was pleasantly surprised what a different view you get from the water. Would recommend the carriage ride as a complement to harbor tour. I do wish they had toured the boat around the front of the battery to view more of Downtown. Maybe that's a different tour. |

| What can I say, THE highlight of our trip to Charleston. 90 minutes of a boat ride, listening to local history, the occasional glimpse of a dolphin or two. Fun all around! |

| We loved the tour and narrative and the view. However, the speaker system on the lower level of the board was very uneven. Where we sat, we could hardly hear the narration. Some seats opened up as the guests moved to the top deck and we moved closer to the speaker. The new location was much better. However, a better public address system would have made the tour absolutely perfect.
The view of the mansions/large homes just north of the Battery would have been better if the boat would have been closer to shore. |

| Enjoyed the boat tour... upset that I could have bought the tickets on site without having to pay the additional $2 per ticket that Zerve charged. |

| I enjoyed this tour and am glad that I went. We went in early July and it was very hot. Take sunscreen or sit downstairs. The snack bar was nice and the prices at the time I went were not ridiculous. Everyone was very friendly. |

| For our 36th anniversary, my wife and I wanted something special. We decide to visit Charleston again especially with the tall ships being in the harbor for Harborfest. When we dicovered that Charleston Harbor tours was planning a special harbor tour for the departing tall ships we jumped at the chance. We were able to get last minute seats through Zerve. Our four day stay was special with exploring the tall ships and experiencing their glorious history. The stay was near dream perfect with our harbor cruise on the Carolina Belle. Having been on the tall ships was special but to have been on the water with them as they left was awe inspiring. The captain of the Belle went above and beyond the call with the tour that he gave us. There were numerous photo ops and the time that he gave us with the ships left us with memories that we will share for years to come. Thanks to Charleston Harbor Tours and Zerve. |

| If you are wanting to take pictures of anything you see, you will need to go up top on the boat. Don't try to take pictures through the windows down below. They apparently never clean the windows. All my pictures taken have dirty streaks running down the photos, makes for lovely viewing. Also, with the Charleston weather being so hot and miserable humidity, you may want to be down stairs for the air conditioning, and I use that term loosely. Most of us on that boat would try to find a vent and stand under it jujst to cool off. Quite frankly, there's not a whole lot to see on this harbor cruise but for the price, it's not too bad for a nice boat ride. |
