Charleston Schooner Pride LLC

Nice weather for sailing. Crew was very friendly and answered all questions. Smooth ride and enjoyed seeing the dolphins. Would do this again.

We really enjoyed the sail. The crew was very nice and willing to answer questions. We moved here a few months ago, so it was a chance to finally get a different perspective of Charleston. I do have to say we were quite disappointed the first time we tried to go out,the previous Wednesday. It was our Anniversary and we had a special night planned around the sail. We didn't hear it was cancelled until we were already there. I had no idea there was even a chance for cancellation, you should put that on the ticket. Other than that, I would do it again. Thanks, Michelle

We had never been sailing before and after this sunset sail, we have fallen totally in love with sailing. The crew made us feel very comfortable and answered any questions we had. Our two hour cruise seemed all too short. When we were approaching the dock, the sun was setting over Charleston and the view was really beautiful. We will be taking this tour again and again.

The only thing I didn't like about it was they didn't really explain anything while we were sailing. But my understanding from the website is that they would explain the history of South Carolina while you were sailing, but they didnt. But other than that it was a great experience!

I ordered two tickets for Sunset Cruise on Scooner Pride Tall Ship. It was convenient to have the tickets available elecrtonically, so I could print them out when I needed them, and no worry about losing them. I highly recommend this method to all who make reservations for future events or activities. Diane McDonough

It was very relaxing evening.Laughs and a great sunset

I grew up near the river, so much of my childhood was spent on boats. However, I had never sailed before and neither had my husband. The captain and crew were very competent, informative and fun. Great sunsets and beautiful scenery of the Charleston harbor! We sat in the front of the boat and had to move a couple of times to 'clear the jib,' but it was well worth it - I think we had the best views of all.

This is a great way to experience what the early settlers of this region felt, sailing into this harbor.

My husband and I booked the sunset cruise while on our vacation in Charleston. We had an absolutely wonderful time, and will definately book again on our next trip. The boat was beautiful and very well maintained, and the crew were fabulous. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. I have to say that this was probably the most relaxing thing we did on our entire vacation. Thanks so much!!

Our trip around the harbor was delightful. If you've never been sailing I would absolutely recommend this cruise. It was pretty chilly when we went, but they had plenty of warm blankets to go around. A lot of people brought supper with them and bought a beer on board. Although it's not a tour the crew was knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. Bring a camera. I took about 50 pictures. Also make sure you end up at the right dock. The instructions are pretty clear, but just make sure you end up on the dock to the _left_ of the aquarium (facing the river), or you might have to make a dash for it. I would definitely recommend this cruise to anyone visiting Charleston.

While it was really windy during the daay, when it came time for the cruise, unfortunately there was very little wind to carry the sail boat along ar a faster pace so the Captain had to use the little engine for most of the trip. We did see lots of pelicans dive into the water (didn't know they did that!) and dolphins could be seen from the ship. They were pretty quick - too quick for photos. The one thing we did not care for was that there was no 'tour guide-type' information provided by the Captain and/or crew. We did ask a couple of questions and a member of the crew would tell us the 'tales' behind the question. We thought it was like the harbor cruise where you get information but it wasn't. You're not really too close to shore where you can see things but we could see the USS Yorktown and a couple of the old forts. It would have been nice to hear the history behind these historical places. If you want a cruise that is fairly quiet and you can just ride the water, then this is for you. If you're looking for more conversation, I'd skip this tour.

If you love sailing and you always wanted to sail on a tall ship, this is a great excursion. If you just want some relaxing time on the water, this will also fit well. The crew was knowledgable and helpful, ready to answer any questions on sailing, the ship, or the harbour. They managed to run this rather large sailing vessel with minimal intrusion on the guests, all while providing drinks (for a fee) as they're going.

We arrived at the Schooner Pride and we were greeted by a very friendly crew. We were instructed of all the safety issues and then we set sail. It was an enjoyable cruise. The Charleston Bay is beautiful and the excursion was very relaxing. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to see the bay and relax at the same time. It was very refreshing.

My wife and I read about the tour on the internet. It talked about what you would see and I have to tell you I didn't have a clue as to what I was looking at. We thought someone would kind of point out the different sites..........wrong. We would not recommend this cruise to any one.......sorry. This is the only cruise of any sort that did not explain anything to you. I think you need new help..........

We were able to secure reservations with relative ease on line. The driving directions were understandable as well. Having a list of FAQ's and answers attached to the e-ticket was good. The boat left on time, which is wonderful since we were able to keep our plans for the rest of the evening. It would have been nice to have had the landmarks pointed out from time to time, however. I wasn't always quite sure what I was looking at. The crew was well mannered and was very informative about safety and such. I knew that this wasn't a "speaking tour", but it would have been nice to have known something more about the area we were covering. I am sure the crew would have offered information as asked, but it should be offered up occasionally. Overall I found it to be a pleasant excursion as the weather cooperated and the crew seemed to be well acquainted with the drill of the tour.
