Q&A

Q: Are there any age restrictions for the carriage tour?

A: Nope! The Charleston Horse-Drawn Carriage Tour is perfect for all ages. However, keep in mind that kids under 2 can sit on a parent's lap for free. It’s a great family-friendly experience, and kids usually love the horses!

Q: What should we wear for the carriage ride? Is it hot in the summer?

A: Dress comfortably! Lightweight, breathable fabrics are best, especially in the summer when it can get pretty warm. Some parts of the ride are shaded, but if you’re sensitive to heat, a hat and sunscreen are good ideas. Bring water too!

Q: Can we reschedule if something comes up?

A: Yes! Palmetto Carriage Works allows you to reschedule as long as you give them at least 24 hours notice. Just call them directly or check their website for more details, but it’s pretty flexible.

Thinking about gifting the carriage tour—any thoughts?

I’m considering getting the Charleston Horse-Drawn Carriage Tour as a gift for my parents. They love history and exploring new places! Has anyone done this before? I read it's pretty informative and fun. Are the guides good at answering questions? They’ll be visiting in September, so I hope it’s nice weather then.

Just did the carriage tour! It was amazing!

I just went on the Charleston Horse-Drawn Carriage Tour last weekend, and it totally exceeded my expectations! The guide was hilarious and super informative. Seeing the historic buildings and gardens from a carriage was just so unique. We even got to pet the horse after the ride! Highly recommend it for anyone visiting!
