Our carriage ride was wonderful with Brianna and Rex. Brianna was absolutely delightful on our tour. She added more building blocks to our Charleston insights. Thank you

Everything was covered in detail. Presentation was excellent and humorous as well. We didn’t anticipate how good this tour was going to be. It was excellent in every way. Tour guide was excellent. We really enjoyed it.

Lovely ride through the town, and our guide was very nice. Unfortunately, we were seated in the back of the carriage so it was hard to hear, especially when the guide was looking towards the horse and not facing the carriage. I realize they have to watch the horse and the route, but we missed bits and pieces of the commentary. Not sure if this problem can even be resolved.
