È un'esperienza emozionante e dinamica: una miscela perfetta di trasporto del XIX secolo e fascino Charleston del XXI secolo.

Opzioni del tour
Itinerario
Incontra la tua guida turistica certificata al Palmetto Carriage Works (noto anche come Big Red Barn), il punto di partenza per il tuo tour in carrozza trainata da cavalli. Goditi una breve introduzione di 15 minuti e dai un'occhiata al nostro fienile prima di intraprendere il tuo viaggio attraverso la storica Charleston.
Il nostro Big Red Barn è situato in posizione comoda, appena fuori dal Charleston City Market. Qui incontrerai la tua guida turistica certificata prima di partire per il tuo giro di un'ora in carrozza trainata da cavalli. La tua carrozza attraverserà la porta della città al mercato, dove la tua guida assegnerà un itinerario di visita unico. Scopri circa 30 isolati del quartiere storico, che mostra un'architettura mozzafiato, bellissime chiese, giardini e molto altro. Il tour si conclude al Big Red Barn.
Mentre vi godete il vostro giro in carrozza, passerete dalla rinomata St. Philip's Church, la più antica congregazione degli Stati Uniti a sud della Virginia. Situata appena fuori dal mercato su Church Street, questa splendida attrazione è una tappa obbligata del vostro tour in carrozza a Charleston.
Il tuo percorso include anche un passaggio dall'iconica U.S. Custom House a Charleston, S.C. La costruzione iniziò nel 1852 ma fu interrotta a causa della potenziale secessione della Carolina del Sud dall'Unione. L'edificio fu finalmente completato nel 1879, aggiungendosi alla ricca storia di Charleston.

Great experience, Bill was very informative with the right amount of history and fun along with plenty of information on how his horse Isiah was well cared for. Well worth it and great way to start your trip.
Enjoyed our visit. Thanks to Austin for a great tour!
Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review, Robin! We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your carriage tour with Austen. We hope to welcome you back to our Big Red Barn soon.
They abuse the horses and make them work in 90+ degree temperatures. They state themselves the horses work 8 hours a day for 5+ days. They do not have a nice life, please book a walking tour, you can see Charleston without supporting animal abuse.
If you book 12-5pm and it is very hot, you risk a cancellation due to hot weather. If the temperatures reach 95+, there could be a cancellation depending on several factors.
Thank you for your helpful advice, John! You make a great point. Mornings and evenings make a wonderful time of the day for a carriage tour of Charleston, in the summertime. Thank you for the positive feedback!
Very historical. Lots of information about fun stuff. Horse(Josh) and driver(alan) were amazing. Professional and a sense of humor.

We booked this tour on July 4th for the history aspect and getting to see some areas in Charleston we knew we wouldn't want to miss seeing. The trip did not disappoint! Our guide was a hoot! He had a fantastic personality and was very humorous and knowledgeable about the history of Charleston. Unfortunately, a guy along the route starting taunting and yelling about the horse and abusive use of the carriage. Our guide was extremely professional and polite and addressed the man in a positive manner. The horses here are so loved and cared for and it shows. Our guide also informed us of just how much care and attention goes into these amazing gentle giants everyday. Charlie was our horse and everyone could tell he was very well loved and taken care of. I would absolutely recommend this trip in Charleston!

I was looking forward to this tour of Charleston but I had no idea what a great tour it would be! Bronson, our carriage driver seems to be a walking encyclopedia of all things Charleston: floods, fires, pirates, architecture, history - all presented with stories and humor. This is a truly memorable tour and worth every penny! ALL of the staff we interacted with were very friendly and helpful!!! DO THIS. You won't be disappointed!
Bronson is a highly valued member of our team, and we are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your carriage tour with him! Please come and visit us again at our Big Red Barn sometime soon!
Bronson was an outstanding guide! I’m a local and have done this tour dozens of times - he was terrific - knowledgeable, entertaining, and thorough. Awesome experience!
