Our guide , Wendy was so knowledgeable and entertaining. The history she shared was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend. Also our big beautiful Jordon did a fantastic job pulling our carriage around.

If you are handicapped you have to walk a ways to get to activities and I specifically asked if we would have time to go to the market if we did the horse ride and was told yes. We got off the ride and our phones were ringing that he was looking for us. Not happy about that and the poor people on the tour could hardly walk let alone walk feom horse ride when we didnt even get off till 1115. Also when we got to the harbor ride we asked where do we go and was told go down sidewalk so we did that and had no idea which way to go.

It was a great decision to book this tour and save driving time to/from Myrtle Beach and Charleston. We enjoyed the carriage ride, the Harbour cruise and especially Boone Hall Plantation. It was a wonderful sunny warm day. We were disappointed not enough time allowed for the city market but we’ll visit Charleston again without doubt. Linda

Be SURE to watch ALL your emails for the start time. I have 3 emails saying start time 7am. I called to arrange a pick up which was not available in my area so I confirmed be there by 7am, correct? Person on the phone said a little early would be nice so I said 6:45 and they said that would be great. BUT, then I received a text saying bus leaves at 6:30am. After closing; no one to call. Conflicts with phone call and 3 emails, but I decided to err on the side of caution. Good thing. Bus left at 6:30am!!!! Note: I even received an email from Viator that morning saying start time 7am. I would have missed the whole tour. This needs to be corrected.

Great tour. Gives you an overview of the city so you can return & spend more time. The carriage ride was very informative & the harbor cruise was fun. Best box lunch I have ever had. Our bus driver Brian was extremely friendly & knowledgeable. You’ll be lucky to have as a driver.

Not worth the money. We sat on the bus 7 out of 10 hours. No boat rides, an hour for person to deliver box lunch from the boat- we ate on the bus. Said they were sorry and gave back $30 for 2 of us!!! Boat was $44 each when I looked it up. You would be wiser to pick up a buggy and boat ride on your own. Buggies are on every corner there. You would save a lot of money, our trip was $450 for 2 for riding a bus all day!! Very disappointed!

Great tour. More time should be allowed at the Market. Also the tour of the Plantation House was limited to only 3-4 rooms Would of liked to see more of the mansion

We did the Roundtrip tour to Charleston only. Whilst the drive and bus was good. The drop of point was not. It is only suitable for people that do the whole tour. Otherwise it is a 1/2 hour hike into town. And our bus driver Joe did not inform us about the free hop on and off bus service offered by the town, which had a stop just around the corner. Quite disappointing. Otherwise I think the whole trip booking may be enjoyable. Even though I do believe having to spend the whole afternoon at Boone hall plantation is too long.
