Charleston Harbor Tours

Very informative tour of the harbor and city of Charleston with great scenery. Narrators and guides extremeley insightful and knowledgable.

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

I would recommend this tour to anyone for a spectacular view of Charleston Harbor and all the panoramic views! You get to see amazing sights steeped in the city's history! The boat is very nice as well with a snack bar if you're hungry and offers air conditioning on the lower deck which was nice on such a HOT day!! The only thing we did not care for was the narrator's voice on the tour; it was very droll and the narrator made a whistling sound at the end of each sentence like that cartoon character does on tv...LOL! Other than that, it is a great activity and well worth the money!!

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.

My parents and nephew were here visiting from West Virginia. We decided to make the harbor cruise one of our outings. The cruise was one of the highlights of the week. I would recommend this cruise to anyone, especially for out-of-towners visiting Charleston. It is a relaxing and informative journey around the harbor.

good tour

We were able to see things in a short time which we did not have time to see from the shore.

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 have been to Charleston many times and thought this would be a nice break from all the walking. It was a chance for us to view the sights from the water. The only problem was there were too many people on board and we never really had a good view and could enjoy it as much as we would have liked too. They did offer snacks which was nice. It wasn't too expensive, however, I will probably not do it again.

The tour of the harbor was well received by my group. I was surprised to find out that I would have made a better deal on the price of the tour had I simply purchased the tickets vs. buying through Zerve. Since I had a group, rate would have been $13.50 per ticket, however since I purchased through Zerve, my rate was $17.50 per ticket..$4 per ticket more! I think this is an unacceptably high premium of over 20%. So while I recommend the tour, you will be better off purchsing directly from the tour company.

It was great harbour tour an my wife and our visitor enjoyed it.

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! Chris Plyler

The local history was well presented. Areas visited of interest to all. you might consider getting closer to & staying longer at aircraft carrier & Patriots point because all kids like that experience.

had a great time on the carriage ride with my wife and 2 year old son. the cruise was also good although we encountered heavy rain and could not enjoy it as fully as we would have liked. the price is very cheap for what we recieved. the guides on both activities were very knowledgable and friendly.

We had a very good time on both the carriage ride and the boat
