For a beautiful, relaxing trip, check this place out. - I went there in July for the Water Festival, and had so much fun. A great place to visit, and so very relaxing. The view from a swing at Waterfront Park downtown is so beautiful.

Excellent Historical Carriage Tour - This was an excellent carriage tour. The driver was very knowledgeable and personable. The horse had its own personality and was well taken care of. They put their horses’ care and well being above making money. I highly recommend them if you’re visiting Beaufort and want a taste of its history.

Lovely Carriage Tour - Jen (I believe that was her name) did an excellent job narrating the tour. It was our 1st time to Beaufort and she gave us lots of interesting info about this historical town. She also told us about our horse "D" and the farm he lives on with the other horses. They all looked well cared for and healthy. Tour was very enjoyable.

Carriage tour of Beaufort, SC. You will love it!!! - Nicole did an excellent job describing the horses pulling the carriage and her description of the architecture and history of Beufort was comprehensive, interesting and humorous at times. Seh was a delight and it was one of the best carriage tours I have ever taken! I would do it again and highly recommend!!!

Lovely carriage ride - This was a fantastic experience. We’d never been to Beaufort before and now we will probably return to do some more sightseeing. The carriage ride was comfortable and beautiful. Nicole, our guide was sweet, funny, personable and so knowledgeable. We enjoyed it so much. We would probably book it again!

Excellent - 5 star rating from me! Our Guide Laura had us all engaged and she had a very cute rapport with the horse (Agnus). Laura is a wealth of knowledge about Beaufort and I recommend this company and book with Laura and Agnus!
