A great way to learn about Charleston, South Carolina. Everyone was very friendly and informative. My favorite part was the carriage ride and seeing the historical homes. Hunter was an entertaining tour guide.

Amazing trip and memories. Our tour guide Wendy went above and beyond from the time she picked us up, until after we were dropped off.
The carriage ride was fantastic seeing and learning the history of Charlston. The harbor tour was great, anytime being on the water is great. The Boone Plantation was emotional as we saw the resiliency of those cast into slavery. We could spend more time to see more of the expansive plantation.
So glad we decided on this trip.

Excellent! I learned so much!! The best part for me was the carriage ride- Shye & her horse Mac. I didn’t expect to love it as much as I did! Shye was phenomenal & sooo interesting. . ‘Da Gullah woman’ at the Boone Plantation was also amazing. So much history & information in only 30 minutes of a presentation! I could have listened to her all day!!

The tour itself was outstanding but the lack of communication was troublesome. After completing the Charleston city tour, I heard everyone else stating that we had to be back on the main bus by noon (not knowing this was the group 5 tour customers). Since I was not provided an itinerary and the main bus driver provided no additional information, I assumed the noon return applied to all. After sitting down in a nearby restaurant for meal, I received a call (11:15 am) that I needed to be back on the main bus by 11:30 am for the continuance of my tour. So now I'm unable to finish my meal and rushing to get back to the main bus location - very unhappy with the lack of communication and the really simple process of providing an itinerary. Additionally, I reached out to management to express my frustration but have yet to receive a reply and/or apology.

We were very happy overall with the tour. We did feel the details of the tour implied you would go to Fort Sumpter. The tour guides and bus driver Wendy were all very nice and knowledgeable.

Great way to get a taste of Charleston.
Bus driver did a great job but it was a wasted opportunity to provide us with local area information. Carriage ride was excellent and boat ride super informative.
Boone Plantation was excellent as well but would have enjoyed taking the tractor ride that was offered. There was plenty of time to take it while we were there.

We had a fantastic trip. Traveling from Myrtle Beach to Charleston. Wendy, our bus driver was incredible getting us to all our tour locations on time even with heavy traffic. Perfect weather helped of course. We would highly recommend this tour and company. A long day (over 12 hours) with all the travel but well worth it !

Our bus driver was wonderful and let us know exactly when & where to meet. The horse drawn carriage tour was great- our guide knew so much history. The boat was a perfect way to view Sumpter and the harbor. The Boone Plantation was amazing. I definitely recommend this tour.

The cartridge ride was great with Wendy doing an awesome job. THE plantation was nice , the harbor tour was ok, wished I had brought binoculars along to see fort Sumner was expecting to get much closer to most of the sites.market place was good but much too short 20 minutes. The bus ride was good.
