  • Horses take a leisurely pace down cobblestone streets and twisting alleys

  • Guide entertains and informs with Charleston ghost stories throughout

Summary

Make your way to Old South Carriage in downtown Charleston at least 15 minutes before departure to begin your tour. Board a comfortable 16-passenger carriage and begin to trot through the 15-block historic core of Charleston. Unlike walking tours, your horse and buggy covers more of the city in less time—meaning more ghost stories for you. As you make your way to spooky attractions such as St. Michael’s Episcopal Church and the Circular Congregational Graveyard, your guide entertains you with history and folklore from Charleston’s past. Learn about pirates, prisoners, and dungeon residents who shaped Charleston’s early years. The tour concludes at original departure point.

About operator:

See historic Charleston from the vantage point of an Old South Carriage. Family owned and operated since 1983, Old South Carriage Company offers narrated, hour-long carriage tours by licensed guides, day and night. Come to our stable at 14 Anson Street, just 2 blocks from The City Market and meet our friendly and professional staff. Reservations are not necessary but recommended as tours frequently sell out. We use French Percherons and Belgian Draft horses. These sturdy equine employees vacation at Sugah Cain, the owner's 65-acre plantation on John's Island. For 2-3 months annually, these beautiful horses are free to run in large pastures or graze under century-old live oaks. Look for the Red Sash: our symbol of a quality horse-drawn carriage tour of Charleston, South Carolina.
