From history buffs to thrill-seekers, there’s a Palmetto Carriage Works tour for everyone. Here’s how to choose your perfect ride.
Charleston is filled with charm, and there’s no better way to experience it than by horse-drawn carriage. At Palmetto Carriage Works, we offer three distinct tours to match every mood, interest, and occasion. Whether you’re drawn to centuries-old history, a romantic private ride, or spooky storytelling, there’s a tour designed for you.
The Historic Tour: For the Classic Charleston Experience
If you want to see Charleston through the lens of its rich past, the Historic Tour is the ideal choice. This daytime journey takes you through iconic landmarks, cobblestone streets, and fascinating stories told by our expert guides. You’ll hear about Revolutionary War history, architectural treasures, and the city’s cultural heritage, all while riding behind our beloved draft horses.

The Private Tour: For Romance, Celebrations, and VIP Moments
Sometimes a carriage ride is more than just sightseeing. Our Private Tours are customizable, intimate, and perfect for making an occasion unforgettable. From weddings and proposals to family reunions and corporate outings, you’ll have the carriage and guide all to yourself.

The Ghost Tour: For a Seasonal, Spooky Twist
If you’re visiting in the fall, especially October, the Charleston Carriage Ghost Tour is a must. By lantern light, your guide shares eerie tales from the city’s past, weaving together whispered legends and real-life accounts. You’ll pass centuries-old graveyards, haunted alleyways, and historic homes with stories to tell.
We won’t spoil the surprises, but Charleston’s beauty comes with a mysterious side, and our horses know the streets well after dark.
