Day trip to Charleston
The trip was nicely organized. Could have gotten some more time in Charleston for folks who took the carriage tour to see the Charleston market. The ferry tour was ok, there was a boxed lunch provided, could have been better. The Boone plantation tour was very historical and educational.

2026 Myrtle Beach Tour
The tours were great but needed much more time at the on the sites. fort Sumter was seen from the Harbor Tour and not actually on the fort. The harbor tour was great since it was very hot. The carriage ride was very informative. We did not have time for the City Market, which was very interesting. We had a great time overall.

Great way to experience Charleston in one day
We had a group of 8 adults and the day held something for each of us. Shopping, history, walking, sight-seeing—everyone had a good day!

Day Trips to Charleston#7 See Ft Sumter,CarriageTour,Lunch & more: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Myrtle Beach.
How much does Day Trips to Charleston#7 See Ft Sumter,CarriageTour,Lunch & more cost?
+
Prices start at $225 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Myrtle Beach usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Day Trips to Charleston#7 See Ft Sumter,CarriageTour,Lunch & more take?
+
Plan for about 11 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Myrtle Beach is not rushed.
Is Day Trips to Charleston#7 See Ft Sumter,CarriageTour,Lunch & more worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 273 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Myrtle Beach, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Day Trips to Charleston#7 See Ft Sumter,CarriageTour,Lunch & more?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Day Trips to Charleston#7 See Ft Sumter,CarriageTour,Lunch & more suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Day Trips to Charleston#7 See Ft Sumter,CarriageTour,Lunch & more?
+
Around 96 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Myrtle Beach can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Myrtle Beach and add a light layer if any part of the 11-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Day Trips to Charleston#7 See Ft Sumter,CarriageTour,Lunch & more start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Myrtle Beach within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Myrtle Beach?
+
Myrtle Beach runs dolphin cruises, deep sea fishing charters, helicopter flights over the Grand Strand, and low country day trips to Charleston and Brookgreen Gardens. Charter boat size and included gear are the deciding factors offshore. On Outty we rank every Myrtle Beach experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Waccamaw River Nature and Wildlife Tour, The Escape Game at Broadway at the Beach in Myrtle Beach, Music and Memories at Greg Rowles Legacy Theatre. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Myrtle Beach?
+
April to June and September to October. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Myrtle Beach?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
