Wonderful tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable, and Aiken took us safely through the streets of Charleston. Taking this tour gave us the information we needed to decide what to do next on our visit.

We thoroughly enjoyed this experience. We arrived early and met our horse, Aiken, who loved the attention he was getting! One of their employees explained their Belgium Draft horses come from the Amish when the Amish are done using them as work horses. Very interesting to talk to and learn about the horses. Happy to hear these horses are out on a farm when not pulling the carriage and they are limited to the number if times they do their routes. Very knowledgeable tour guides. Will do this again next time we’re in Charleston!

First let me say that the area the trolly went was beautiful but our issue was we couldn't hear a word the driver was saying about the area. Christmas music was so loud that it drowned out the driver when he was talking about the area. We jumped off 3/4 of the way through the tour. Very disappointing.
