We were a group of 4 and had a fantastic carriage ride . Our guide was Tyler and she and her horse Philepe( spelling ?) made a perfect tour pair! Beaufort is a beautiful historical town and Tyler gave us info along with some fun stories. This is our 3rd time taking your tour and each time is a great experience.

My husband and I enjoyed this fun and informative Horse Tour around beautiful Beaufort. The tour guide and horse, Phillipe, had an entertaining relationship. She always thanked him for being a gentleman, and he always seemed to look back to check on her. The tour guide was very well versed with the history of almost every house we passed. The hour was plenty of time to enjoy the wonderful sights of this town. At the end of the tour, I enjoyed feeding Phillip one of my life savers. Who knew horses liked life savers! I have been on many carriage tours around the lowcountry, and this one is top notch.

This was a wonderful experience! Our tour guide, Anastasia, was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and spunky. The old part of town is beautiful and the history is rich. Highly recommend!
