Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids to join the carriage tour?

A: Nope, there’s no strict age limit! Kids of all ages can join the tour. It’s a great way to introduce them to history and see the sights of Charleston. Just keep in mind that younger kids might need to sit on your lap, so plan accordingly! Also, it’s super engaging for them with all the horses and stories.

Q: What happens if it rains on the day of our tour?

A: If the weather doesn't cooperate, they typically offer to reschedule you for another day. Just make sure to check in before your tour to see if any changes are happening. Charleston sunshine can be unpredictable, so always best to be prepared!

Q: How should I dress for the carriage ride? Is it comfortable?

A: Casual and comfy is the way to go! It’s a laid-back ride, so you’ll want something that can handle the heat if it’s sunny. Good shoes are a plus since you might be walking around a bit. And definitely consider dressing in layers if you're going early or later in the season!

Just booked the Charleston Horse & Carriage Tour, any tips?

I’m super excited! My girlfriend and I are doing the carriage tour next month. I’ve heard so many great things about seeing the historic sites and hearing the stories from the guide. Are there any hidden gems we should look out for during the ride? Also, any tips on timing so we can catch the best light for photos?
