What an awesome experience! All staff were spectacular! Mike our carriage driver was awesome and so educated on the city of Charleston and not only the agriculture but also the landscaping! He gave us several recommendations on where to go next to see the best architecture and which plantation he loved to visit. Definitely recommend a private charter! Bosch was an awesome horse and such a lovely creature!

We had Josh as our guide and America as our horse. Wonderful experience overall. Josh made it personable and fun, with lots of fun facts and jokes sprinkled in. The carriage was surprisingly not bumpy! Being 6 months pregnant, it was actually really comfortable because the bench back flexes and moves as you ride. Went through a lot of residential and King St. The horses are magnificent! Definitely a must do while in Charleston.

Palmetto Carriage is awesome!!! Our carriage team was Fox and Clint. Fox provided great stories and history of Charleston and really zoned in on particular spots of our tour route. Clint was absolutely beautiful and even pranced a couple times to show off. I loved that you could visit with their horses, hear about their care and how many days off they get to rest and not be overwhelmed. This phenomenal care is visible not only with all the beautiful horses, but in the big red barn as well. I HIGHLY recommend Palmetto and would absolutely go again if ever in Charleston. Thank you, Fox and Clint!!

Visiting Charleston for a quick historical homeschool trip. Our guide, Michael, packed in a ton of history, including recommendations on some restaurants and a famous bar. We’ve done this tour 3 times, and each time we learn new things, take different routes and see new sites. Such a great way to learn about Historical Charleston.

We took two tours! The Haunted Ghost Tour with Big Mike was extremely informative! He was a great story teller and knowledgeable! He made it fun!! The Residential Tour/daytime tour was done by lottery system. We were sent through the French Quarter to the larger home section in Charleston. Marley was a great horse. Unfortunately, I can’t remember the guides name. He was from Hershey, PA. He was very knowledgeable and informative!

This was our favorite part of our visit to Charleston! Such a fun experience and fun way to learn the history of the city! I can’t remember our tour guides name, but he was 10/10! He is the horse trainer as well! I loved how he started the tour talking about our horse and how well they are taken care of!
