Worth it! - Our tour was great. It helped that the temps were amazing and a cool breeze. Tyler was a wonderful guide. Witty, knowledgeable and kept you engaged and giggling! The horse Link was a sweetie and full of personality.

Beautiful history. - The homes that are original and their true history that the tour guide knew and shared was amazing. I would have loved an additional 30 more minutes of a tour and I would have paid more for it. To see the homes of the historical south and hear the true moments of history is worth it to me.

Great Experience! Definitely recommend! - This was our second time doing this particular carriage tour. Great experience! We were the only couple on the carriage, so we got to have an intimate personal tour of the town. Our tour guide Charles was very knowledgeable and friendly. Our horse Bandit was great and listened very well.

Was a nice ride - We enjoyed the history of the buildings and trees. My African-American friend did not appreciate history of the slaves during the tour. She states that she knows that she came from A family history of slaves and did not need to be reminded of that vacation.
