We recently vacationed in SC and the Pirate treasure hunt with Sabrina in Charleston was definitely one of the highlights from our trip! 2 weeks later and our 4 year old is still talking about all he learned about pirates :) A must in Charleston if you have miniature pirates! 

Business response:

This tour was awesome! Sabrina was witty, knowledgeable, and super fun. I took my English friend who was visiting me in Charleston on the tour, and we had an absolute blast! I'd definitely go again, and would recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Holy City.

Last winter my 10-year old son and I took the Ghost Tour with Sabrina. It was awesome, even though it was the coldest night of the year. Since it was so fabulous, my company hired Charleston Pirate Tours to be at the Charleston In-Water Boat Show last April. Last week, my son and I took Eric's pirate tour and it didn't disappoint. We hope to see you at one of our boat shows next year. Thank you! 

Business response:

Thank you for the kind words! Glad that you and your son enjoyed the tour. Hope to see you at the boat shows!
