  A great experience learning about Charleston SC. Carriage ride was fun. Harbour tour was good also. Learned a lot. Boone Hall is all walking. Items scheduled for us and did not need to arrange things.

• Carriage ride was great....

  Carriage ride was great. Our driver, Paul, was very knowledgeable and had a terrific sense of humor. The Harbor cruise was relaxing and enjoyable. Our bus driver did a great job of getting everyone to where they had to be.

• A bit of an unorganized cluster for our trip- will drive ourselves and book separate events if we visit Charleston again

  Admittedly, we did not know what to expect. I should have researched a little more. The tour itself was fine- but a few things to consider. 1. The Bus Driver - should not talk so much and drive, he was easily distracted - looking out windows, there were several minor swerves. We were honked at twice for crossing the lane next to us. He drove snails pace, then normal, then snails pace over and over. 2. Upon arrival in Charleston - we and several others took the carriage ride- was fine, nothing special. When the driver dropped us off he gave instructions as to how to get our way back to the bus (walking) One couple was struggling to walk and none of us realizes we would be dropped off a few streets over from the drop off. We found our way back just fine but still- should be more clear and when you have a couple with walking restrictions be mindful- she had a walker but left it at the bus not knowing she would have to walk several blocks. I felt badly for her. 3. Harbor tour- 3 couples - us included were not on the roster and how embarrassing the boat driver was waiting for us. My husband called the reservation # and the rep said to let the 6 of us on and he would sort it out later. Blah! embarrassing and not great seating or communication regarding lunch either. That being said, through word of mouth on the boat we knew to get up and get our box lunch. The sandwich (we didn't have a choice just given a meal) but it was REALLY GOOD and the bread was a fresh as could be! Others had options for lunch not sure why we were not offered an option? 4. Boone Plantation was really nice to see. Side note- we had the bulk of time here and didn't need but 1/2 of it. The Home tour was fast because you cannot go through the whole estate. I would say 3 stars because the communication was really poor, the driver scared us more than once. I forgot to add, literally my husband had to yell "heads up" because traffic in front of us was at a stand still. When you book - there should be maps, and meet up locations specifically noted because you do not stay with your group- everyone does their thing. For the price I would never do this again. We would drive ourselves. Fort Sumpter would have been a better tour.

  

  

  

  

  

• Not really a Charleston tour

  This isn’t a “Charleston” tour and is mostly a Boone Plantation Tour. You start your day at 6:30 am and it could take up to 7:00 am for the bus to arrive at your stop. The pickup is before any coffee shops are open and there are no coffee shops open. We had to give up our Charleston Carriage ride to het coffee. Then, we realized Charleston is not an open for business district in the morning. The stores were closed and the historic shopping strip was setting up. The boat tour was OK as you weren’t actually experiencing Charleston. The bus ride is also quiet with no narration. Meaning, while you’re heading to Charleston or the Boone Plantation, you’re getting zero information. We booked last minute so we were relying on the “tour guide” experience. It was not worth the approximately $400 we spent. Those who are well traveled. Will be underwhelmed by this experience. We heard rumbling from other passengers that felt like the tour was a bit shortsighted, and that we didn’t really get to experience Charleston. Noting that we had to choose between coffee or the carriage ride. I was really upset that they’re picking you up before the café in your hotel or any of the coffee shops on the street are open., that they’re not giving you any opportunity to get caffeinated. This tour would’ve been better if you were starting later in the morning, remove the whole Boone plantation option, and really received a legitimate tour of historic Charleston. Opportunities to go into some of the churches or grab a drink or something to eat from one of the popular venues would’ve been great. Even just a chance to go shopping, or learn a little bit more history/modern day culture. These are all just my opinions. For many people, especially those who are locals of the Carolinas. They really did enjoy themselves. We might have different expectations, considering how much our family travels. I will see the Boone plantation was fun, but I would’ve gladly given that up for more of a Charleston experience.

  Overall, the bus ride, the carriage ride and the Boone plantation visit was very nice, but we were so disappointed that the cruise was canceled at the very last minute and we were left for two hours to roam around the market there . We had already spent a half an hour in the market and there was really not enough things to do there for two more hours . We were told that that we would get a refund of some of our monies to cover the loss cruise, but have not received any of it.

• Perfect Fit
