Charleston is known for rich history, astonishing
landmarks, and wonderful southern culture. If
that is why you decided to visit then a carriage
ride is for you. Palmetto Carriage is
Charleston's premiere carriage tour company.
From knowledgeable tour guides to their
impeccable animal care record, they have
proven themselves as the industry standard. A
carriage tour is a “must do” on any visitor’s list
of attractions. Here is a little about what
makes Palmetto stand above the rest.
All of Palmetto’s tour guides must pass a
standard citywide tour guide test. Palmetto
Carriage goes one step further with its own
unique 30-day training program to ensure the
safety and satisfaction of their customers. Very
few guides make the final cut and that is one of
the reasons why the product is consistently the
best in the industry. Many of their guides have
been with Palmetto for 10+ yrs making them the
most experienced and entertaining Guides in
Charleston.
Palmetto Carriage begins their tours in their Big
Red Barn located one block north of the City
Market. If you happen to be driving they provide
free parking for all their customers. Parking can
be pretty tough to find in the market area
therefore they make this part of your trip a piece
of cake!
Once inside the barn visitors can take a look
around their operation. This is the reason
Palmetto chooses to start and end their tours
from their barn. Everyone who takes the tour,
as well as passers-by who wish to take a look
inside, can see a “behind the scenes” look at
just how far Palmetto goes to care for its
animals.
From animal temperatures logged after every
tour, to scheduled breaks and farm time,
visitors can see first hand just how much time
and effort Palmetto puts into its animals.
Animal care is one of their main priorities and
they have always made this their goal. It is
obvious to anyone who enters the Big Red
Barn. Feel free to meander around and ask
questions.
