Was a great way to see the city. Our guide was excellent and had tons of information on the area. Only complaint was the couple that has to face backwards the entire trip which makes it hard to see 90% of what he is talking about.

Richard was a great guide and the private tour was fantastic. We went in mid-November and was a super low key time to see the city. Not very busy and a very laid back haunt through the historic district

Professional staff, very knowledgeable driver/guide....took us on a one hour historical tour. We've done this tour before, and fortunately we got a different route this time. Both trips were well worth the money and time.

Two yrs ago this October our elders sister died, she was one of five. After that moment at the funeral we all decided to gather for a day every year, just our sibling without our mates and be together as a family unit. We actually did two outings within 6 month of each other due to the success of the first event. We chose a day in Charleston SC, did a food tour, and a carriage ride. Both were excellent! The Private carriage tour with Carolina Polo was wonderful! The horse was gorgeous...and the carriage was so comfortable. It seats four which was perfect for us. Great thing to do in Charleston.

We had a great time on a private tour with Kiki and Amigo. We learned a lot about Charleston and saw many wonderful parts of the city. We would highly recommend taking this excursion.

We were able to get a private coach for about 25% more than 4 seats on the normal 16 passenger group wagon, and it was so worth it! Our tour guide RT guided us on GrayMans carriage and we were treated to an expert and informative tour which we could hear clearly and converse with RT. This is the way to enjoy Charleston and for just a little premium!

I was surprised to learnthat my "private historic carriage ride" was with more than 8 strangers... and I paid $300 for 2 people. When I went to the website I thought I was getting a literal private carriage.. like the one shown. That may seat up to 4 people as described I'm my viator purchase. To my surprise, my boyfriend and I walk up to a carriage with easily 10-12 on board. The event was great nonetheless, however maybe in your description you could be more specific when stating what the client is actually purchasing.
