| Bruce and Kathy in Carriage House |
No trip to the low country would be complete without a tour of Charleston, and what better way to see this historic city than on a horse drawn carriage tour.
 |
| Our tour guide |
There are five carriage tour company's operating in Charleston, each with multiple carriages, giving hour long tours. To keep the more popular areas from being overwhelmed, the city has been divided into five distinct routes; before each carriage departs, they must stop at a city managed tour station, which randomly assigns that carriage one of those routes. As a result, one can never know in advance what one will see on these tours.

We lucked out and drew Rainbow Row and all the beautiful historic homes along The Battery.

Next, we stopped for sweet tea and lunch at Poogan's Porch, before going on a self directed walking tour to take a closer look at Charleston's
courtyard gardens
window boxes and
cobblestone streets
