Our sail was the first thing we chose in Charleston. It was a perfect day. The crew was friendly, competent and informative. Because the conditions were perfect, they took us way out in the water. We saw dolphin, gorgeous views, and loved the feel of the ship. |

Our family found the cruise relaxing. The Pride's crew are experienced and hospitable. Willingly they shared their knowledge of the vessel, the waterways, Charleston and the surrounding areas. |

Would have paid more for fewer people. The "butt to butt" packed excursions are not much fun. |

The captain and crew were most capable and pleasant, but not intrusive on our schooner experience. I recommend to anyone who have children of any age to allow them to join in to raise or lower the sails when invited as this must be a grand experience. We declined and were sorry afterward. We loved the entire sailing time and would love to do it again. |

The trip was nice and the 2 young women who manned the sails did a terrific job. I think a third person should have been there to do a narration of the places we passed in the harbor and give more of a history of the area. Next time we would probably go with a different tall ship schooner we found out about because they give a history and narration during their harbor sail. The captain had such a soft voice that we could not hear what he was saying most of the time that he spoke.(which wasn't very often) It was a relaxing 2 hours and the cannon firing under the bridge was great! |

The crew made everyone comfortable at the start and did their best to keep us that way.
They answered any and all questions in a professional manner.
We ran into a little rain squall toward the end of our cruise and they attended to our safety flawlessly. |

As soon as we boarded it got dark and started torain within a few mins. The captain should have cancelled and refunds should have been provided. Wishful thinking. |

Loved it, Loved it, Loved it. The cruise we booked was 2pm for 2 hours and a perfect time to go out on the water. The schooner is quite large and there were about 12 of us, so plenty of room to sit comfortably. You can buy drinks onboard - wine, beer, champagne and sodas. My husband took the opportunity to help raise the sails which he enjoyed, but helping out is optional. We saw so many dolphins, which was brilliant. The sun was shining and it was just so relaxing. Sarah and her crew, in particular Dennis were brilliant. Whilst this is not a narrated tour of the harbor they are full of info which they are pleased to share with you and great to chat to. You will pass Pinckney Castle, Fort Sumter, Patriots Point (The USS Yorktown) and see the harborfront. Definately worth the money and the best trip we did in Charleston. |
