The process was seamless, and our tour guide and Linc (the horse) were delightful, and the information was interesting, informative and presented with enthusiasm.

Our family of 5 had a fantastic time. Taylor was our guide, with Link as our driver. The tour was witty and informative, and I’m sure barely scratched the surface of Beaufort’s historical significance. Absolutely recommend, even for kids.

My husband and I had a great experience! We learned a lot of interesting facts about the area and saw some really cool historical buildings and houses. The guide was awesome and funny, and the horse, Bandit was such a good boy! Perfect duration of time as well. Definitely recommend if you’ll be in or near Beaufort!

This was a wonderful tour! The guide was excellent and thoroughly knowledgeable about the history of the area! The tour was Abbott an hour and covered the historic district.

Our guide was a petite very friendly young lady. She knew a whole raft of information about Beaufort being a local herself. Tyler was great and Felipe did his best to get us around town with no mishaps. Would recommend taking a carriage tour with this company as it is easy to find parking and location of site is in the marina area. Mention your tour at the Chocolate Tree located in downtown area and get yourself a box of the kind of chocolates Tom Hanks always stops in for when in town. You get a complimentary chocolate sand dollar treat for just mentioning Southrun Rose tour if you don’t want a box
