Great experience - Had a great time. The horse drawn carriage was fantastic. Our guide Emily and Curtis our horse were number 1. Emily was so knowledgeable and friendly. Curtis was the best horse and has a great personality, the cruise was good also and lunch was good. The plantation tour was beautiful. Unfortunately with the temperature 97 degrees we didn’t want to spend much time outside. But will definitely go back there in the fall

Trip to Charleston - The bus trip from Myrtle Beach was comfortable and we enjoyed the tours. We'll worth the money because we wouldn't have known what to do if we went ourselves.

Full day not enough!! - Make sure what Viator lists as pick-up options is in sync with what the local provider offers- even after confirming with Viator day before, it turned out mine wasn't; however, Viator worked it out so all ended well! The activities were interesting and enjoyable- not enough time was allotted to take in Boone Plantation but what we all COULD see/learn was great.

Day trip - It’s not long enough at each place. You need more than one day! We learned a lot about the history. Everyone was very knowledgeable.

Awesome Trip - We had the most wonderful experience. The driver was very personable and knowledgeable about where we we going. Each place we visited, the tour guide was so informative. There was enough time at each site to enjoy without being rushed. I would love to use this company for my next tour adventure.

Charleston Tour #7 - I have taken this tour 3 times now and each time learn something new because the speakers/guides each have their own twist . The Gullah Culture speaker at Boone Plantation was "Awesome". Unfortunately, this last time, we had no time to shop at the City Market. I was told pick up time at Ripley's was at 6:30 am... we were on time. Bus driver kept waiting for a group that arrived late which cut in to everyone else's time...not very considerate to those who arrived promptly for the trip.

Day Trip - Very good and had fun! The bus driver went above and beyond. No one showed up and we had no maps or knew what was going on. Wished we had more time to shop at the first stop. When we went to the boat for lunch they didn’t even have our information to let us. Other than that was great!!! I give the bus driver a 5 star review.

Historic Charleston. - Nice trip but no guide. Not a good fit for people who have mobility issues as there is a lot of walking involved. There was no maps to get you around in the city of Charleston. The cruise around the bay was very nice and the plantation tour was very nice.
