Experience Historic Charleston on a Top-Rated Day Trip!
Enjoy a scenic journey to one of America’s greatest historic treasures, Charleston, SC, for a day of sightseeing, shopping and dining!
Board the motor coach at one of our convenient meeting locations or enjoy hotel pickup in Myrtle Beach, as you begin the picturesque two-hour trip to Charleston on our comfortable, air-conditioned motor coach.
Once in the Charleston area, your all-day adventure continues! If you would like a more in depth historic tour experience – add on the City Bus tour OR the Carriage tour for a sightseeing excursion of the historic district.
Guests who don’t choose to take the bus or carriage tour, will go straight to the market and have extended time to shop and browse in the historic city market and explore the Powder Magazine – SC’s oldest government building.
Next, enjoy a Charleston Harbor tour (with a delicious boxed lunch included) and a tour at Boone Hall Plantation, all with a professional tour guide who is certain to entertain and inform you.
All aboard at the end of the afternoon as you will board the bus for the return trip to Myrtle Beach. You will be dropped back off at the starting point around 5:30.
Prepare for a Charleston cultural experience like no other!

1. Optional – Carriage Tour or City Bus Tour
Choose to add a narrated tour of the historic district to your day! Enjoy a one-hour carriage tour or one-hour bus tour with an experienced driver and guide who will delight you with the history and sights of the historic district. You cover 25-30 city blocks and get dropped back off near the market, so you have time to browse the market as you head back to the bus for your next tour.
2. Charleston Harbor Tours
Board the Carolina Belle for a 90-minute, non-stop Harbor of History tour live-narrated by the captain. Experience 75 points of interest, including Fort Sumter, the USS Yorktown, and the Battery while delighting in a delicious deli-style boxed lunch.
3. Boone Hall Plantation Tour
Explore the 738-acre plantation to see the historic brick slave cabins, a smoke house, and a cotton gin. Costumed hostesses provide guided tours and reveal to you a true sense of Southern elegance, strife, charm, and beauty.
You also have some limited time to visit the market and see where the original settlers purchased their daily needs. Take home a souvenir, ranging from hand-woven baskets to one-of-a-kind artworks, before heading back to Myrtle Beach.
