Efficient Guide for Excellent Excursions - This excursion covered so many top attractions in the Charleston area. The transition from one to the next was well planned. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone that wants to cover the highlights in an efficient manner.

A nice tour of Charleston - This was a great day to spend in Charleston. A nice carriage ride of the city, then a tour of the fort, and finally the plantation tour. Beautiful house with a curious history.

Charleston fun day - Wonderful day trip to Charleston from Myrtle Beach. Our bus driver was wonderful. Very clear and made the trip run smoothly and was an excellent driver. The carriage ride was very interesting and a great way to see some of Charleston. Our ride on the boat was fun even though we did not stop at the fort. Lear many things about the harbor and had a very good lunch (Ham & Turkey and cheese on hoagie roll) cookies and chips). Boone Plantation was beautiful and enjoyed our tour of the property and home. The only thing that would have made it better is to have been able to walk a bit in Charleston. After the carriage ride, we had to run to the bus to stay on our time scheduled which did not allow us time to go to the market or walk the waterfront.

My First Time in Myrtle Beach - The bus ride was good however the individual stops on the tour were not organized well especially at the Carolina Bell. If the boarding area had been changed that should have been communicated instead of having us continuously walking and getting nowhere.

Almost Got Messed Up - hi. 7 of us were on a trip on the 2nd of july. we arrived at the marketplace where Mackenzi got on the bus and started speaking. we could not hear her and she kept talking. when we got to the front of the bus she stated to us to be back at the bus at 3:30. 6 hours in the marketplace??? thinking something wasnt right, we went to the travel store near the marketplace and were told that we had the entire package and to be at the bus at 11 am to be taken to the boat. the rest of the trip was great. we do not blame the bus driver since he just does his job. i did call your office from the street corner and filed a sorta complaint about her to someone. she should be repremanded for almost ruining our trip. if i dont hear back from someone with a really good explaination or a partial refund, all 7 of us will post this on multiple sites, trip advisor, etc, to warn people of what could happen if not careful. why didnt she use the intercom on the bus? thanks for your time, tim ciotti.

Disorganized but worth the stops - The carriage ride, the harbor cruise and Boone Plantation were definitely worth experiencing. However, the bus trip was just that…transportation between places with the driver handing out tickets as you exited the bus. The order of stops was odd and very rushed with absolutely no time to walk around Charleston. Boone Plantation should have been first- two hours, then the harbor cruise- two hours, and the carriage ride last since it ends near the market. Departure from Charleston should have been around 5:30 so we would have had time to explore. As it was planned we arrived around 9am, did the carriage tour, went straight to an 11:30 harbor cruise, ate our bagged lunch, got off the boat at 1:00, immediately left for the plantation, got off the bus at 1:45 at the plantation and had just enough time to see two scheduled presentations in the Big House and by an authentic “Gula” slave descendent before we had to meet the bus at 4 pm to return to Myrtle Beach. Overall, the 3 portions were wonderful, but the timing and organization was subpar.

Just ok - Just ok. The beach seemed dirty, to be fair I’m spoiled by the clear gulf water and soft white sand, but there was a lot of trash in the area. I live near Branson MO and this seemed like Branson on the beach. We took a nice dolphin cruise out of Murrells Inlet. Also spent a day at Brookgreen Gardens that was very nice.

Mixed review - The Boone plantation experience which includes the Gullah storytelling and mansion tour stands out. The tour of Charleston Horse driven carriage was borderline average in that our guide was just "ok". The cruise was disappointing. The tour company should've told us to eat breakfast first since you had such a mandatory early start.

Lack of customer care - We get accused of being late and get left behind while they were late to start the day but they don’t care
