Something to do on a cold rainy day in Charleston - The tour guide was very nice and very informative. It was a wet yucky day in Charleston, but he was able to show us all the highlights of the town and give us quite a bit of history.

Excellent historic tour, with views of the entire city - We arrived on a rainy weekend. Our guide was Sir Andrew- he was amazingly knowledgeable, entertaining and adaptable to weather conditions and closed roads. He kept the information flowing while navigating and getting updates to get us to places that might have been flooded earlier in the morning. We had an excellent experience and would highly recommend this tour.

Old Town Trolley Tour of Charleston - We had a delightful tour with Meg. She was extremely knowledgeable having lived in Charleston for 35 years. We saw all the major destinations outlined in the brochure and she added her own flavor with many interesting stories. It was well worth the money!

The Meg does Old Town Trolley proud! - "The Meg" was a friendly, funny, knowledgeable guide + smooth driver. She had a difficult crowd (a family of 17 foreigners. mostly non-English speaking) who talked + translated non-stop. She was patient and sprinkled "quiet-talking" reminders for the remaining 8 English speakers' benefit. She makes Old Town Trolley in Charleston, SC memorable!

Very disappointing! - Very dissatisfying! It’s an enclosed minivan- not an open air trolley. Only allows 6 mins at a park stop and that’s it. Drove around in a circle talking about historic homes. Driver was nice, but for $40pp not worth it imo. Spend $10 more and get the horse drawn buggy instead. No time at battery area, not rainbow row, nor any historic churches. I could have drive myself around in my car for less.
