Very informative and interesting. A great way to see the city, even in the sprinkling rain. Driver was enthusiastic and had lots of tidbits about the city, architecture, cultures, churches, and even some restaurant recommendations.

We took a private 1-hour carriage tour as the first thing on our visit to Charleston, and it was one of the highlights of the trip. Our guide Sara was excellent and very knowledgeable about the area and really pleasant to talk with. It was a great introduction to this beautiful city, and a great way to kick off our explorations.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience doing a private carriage tour. The communication after booking was timely and efficient. Our guide was AMAZING, Jaysen is Charleston born, knowledgeable courteous and very easy going. We highly recommend you ask for him for private tour! Learned so much from him about the city and carriage rides… will let you find out these fun facts upon your ride. The carriage was very clean and horse great! Highly recommend this place.
