boat tour good intro to charleston and its history. captain incorporates light humor and trivia in his narrative. Boone Hall was eye-opening and quite educational for those not raised in the South. Gullah presentation was excellent.

We had an excellent time and the harbor and carriage tours were great. They were very informative for my significant other that's not from this state and even myself that grew up here. I look forward to booking more tours.

Great Tour!

Prior to my vacation in Charleston with my family which included 2 kids ages 6 & 7, I searched online for things to do and stumbled across this tour package. Not only was I very happy with the value I received for the tours we went on but the overall experience was as smooth as could be. I purchased and received my confirmation via e-mail. Upon arrival in Charleston I visited the Charleston Harbor Tours office which was conveniently located right downtown. The staff inside quickly acknowledged my confirmation and wrote up 3 seperate prepaid tickets for the Harbor Tour, Carriage Ride & Boone Hall Plantation. At each tour I simply presented the prepaid ticket and off we went, no hassle, no fuss. I'd definately use this service again.

Informative but a pain

Our Harbor tour was really nice, especially with the air conditioned lower deck. The tour guide was great with lots of good historical data. The Carriage tour on the other hand was a pain....especially when the carriage company crowded 16 full size adults 4 to a seat with temperatures in the 100's. I sat on a metal rail for more than an hour as we bumped through the heat. They should make allowances for hot weather. We were packed like sardines. Very uncomfortable. If you take this tour, don't let them stack you 4 to a seat unless you have 2 small kids. The guide was very good, but his good work was negated by the conditions mentioned above. If you can afford it, take the private carriage and avoid the tourist trap and sweat, or just go in the fall or Spring if you can.

Pleasant trip and Informative

Was pleased with the tour, but unhappy that if I had waited to buy the 12 tickets I purchased and not used Zerve, it would have cost me less. The ticket price at the landing was cheaper and did not incl;ude the $2 per ticket fee. Thought you guys sort of ripped me off. Would recommend to other that they not use Zerve and just buy tickest there. Maybe you ought to offer a lower price on Zerve so that you don't stick it to customers who use that service!

Harbor tour had great information about Charleston and its history. The carriage ride was just a tour of one of the rich neighborhoods.

It's Okay

It's okay if you have never been to Charleston and want to get a quick view of the city by wanter. When I went it was a bit too crowded and hot. Did get to see a few dolphins (or porpoises). The time is a bit long and probably the tour could be done in 30 minutes less but I guess it's a slow boat. All in all I'd say go for it if this is your first time in Charleston. The city and houses from the water is certainly beautiful.

A very enjoyable evening. The music was great, the food was ok and the evening went well despite the temperature that evening. I would recommend it to anyone visiting the area as a great way to spend 2-3 hours in the evening.

I would recommend, this is guided tour by one of the knowledgeable captain in the harbor. You learn a lot in about hour about Charleston rich history. Riding was smooth and refreshments were available.
