Our buggy tour was very informative and our guide was sweet to her horse. You could tell they care for their horses like family. Our guide was a young gal FULL of knowledge. She made our tour very enjoyable. Our 10 and 14 yr old liked it too.

This tour was a great introduction to Beaufort. The guide was knowledgeable and charismatic. Jake, our horse, also had a great personality! We learned some history, saw amazing homes and heard about the film history of the town. Our tour was in July, so it was hot, but most of the tour was under tree canopy which kept it cooler. I suggest booking a morning time because they will cancel your slot if the temps get too hot for the horse. Our 8 and 12 year old boys enjoyed it, but they are history buffs. Otherwise I’d say it’s geared towards older audiences.
