One of the best travel experiences we have ever had. From the first call to the last handshake it was exceptional. My initial call was answered with an enthusiastic greeting followed by an honest" how can I HELP you". My questions were answered and the reservations made and to my total surprise they even volunteered to provide FREE shuttle service to and from both tours from our hotel. Jim, our shuttle driver was superbly friendly and helpful. Mark our mini-bus tour operator could not have done anymore to make it educational, enjoyable and memory making. Andy the captain of he Carolina Belle mixed his top notch knowledge of the area with his wacky sense of humor and entertained us for the entire duration of the tour. Even went out of his way to visit my wife and I and politely " pull her leg" a bit. We will without a doubt return to Charleston and to this tour company while there. Thanks Adventure Sightseeing

This is a good way to orient yourself to Charleston for further sightseeing or a must if you have only one day to see the city. It does a great job of highlighting The Citadel, showing many beautiful Charleston homes and viewing The Battery area. Our guide was knowledgable and interesting. The tour is a good value. My only concern was that our guide spoke very quickly and, being hard of hearing, I missed some of his narrative.,

Thank you for taking the city tour and harbor tour combo. You have multiple options for harbor tour times but we do our best to keep them as close together as possible. There are a few delis and restaurants within a 10 minute walk or many people opt to get out in The Market and walk or take the city shuttle down to the Maritime Center.
