The boat has two main decks, one inside with air conditioning or heat and windows along both sides, and an upper deck that's open air with a canopy. There's also a very small room on the lowest level they call the Key West room that can be used for some things but is generally not available for most guests. The boat has two bathrooms at the back on the middle level. Overall the boat was clean and didn't rock much in the calmer inshore waters of Charleston harbor. I will say their contract is very rigid, giving almost no rights to the customer; everything in it favors the Carolina Girl, even if things don't go as planned and it's their fault or the boat breaks down. Make sure you review the bill carefully because they claim they don't provide refunds for overpayments, but they do have a mandatory tip which they ask you to pay before the event even happens. The captain was supposed to call out sights along our route (he changed the route without telling us) but he never did. He also cut our route short to make sure we returned to the dock on time, only to arrive 15 to 20 minutes early. The owner's wife, Courtney, was helpful in the beginning to get everything rolling. Our coordinator, Camille, was very strict and at times not accommodating, but was quite professional. Kayla was super friendly and helpful on the boat during our event. But be warned they can be very strict on catering, food options, use of their kitchen, music, glass on board, bringing your own drinks, location of the dinning tables and more.

The staff was super nice and announced the safety rules before the ceremony and from there everything was great. There was a bartender on the main and upper levels and there were several areas for seating and moving around comfortably even with so many people aboard. The food was set up buffet style and had something for everyone, chicken, eggplant parm, rice, greens, salad, etc. The lower deck was super comfortable with larger tables and nice and cool temperatures. Everything was really nice and organized and I believe that we were out on the water for about 2 hours. This was a great experience and of course very different from traditional weddings.

I was pleasantly surprised to find free street parking. We boarded the boat and headed out in the harbor. It was a beautiful night on the water and bonus, we got to see the sun set. They played a little music but mostly the captain gave us history of the harbor. We saw some old military ships and a couple of forts and went under the suspension bridge. They sell snacks, alcohol, soda and ice cream. I ordered a Pepsi and a chocolate chip ice cream cookie. And bonus, there is a bathroom on board. The staff was friendly. I would take another cruise with Charleston Harbor Tours.

It had been more than five years, but last week I took the tour with my three kids and it was just as amazing as ever! We were on a week long vacation and literally added a night in Charleston just for the Ecotour. Both our boat captain and the gentleman driving were incredibly knowledgeable and very approachable. Just good people. They taught us about the ecosystem and various animals that inhabit it. We pulled crab traps and got to handle wildlife as we learned about it. You get time to walk the Boneyard on Capers Island and it is an experience like no other. It is the most pristine beach I have ever seen. Before we boarded our boat to go back to the marina, our captain took time to show my middle kid how to throw a casting net. Very cool people. Perfect mix of education and fun!
