26. Carriage Tour

If you are looking for something a little different and unique to Beaufort, relive the glory days in a horse-drawn carriage narrated by a friendly and knowledgeable guide. Learn about the many trials and adventures that Beaufort has endured and overcome over the last 300 years. Each of the Civil War era antebellum homes has its own wild tales of conflict, danger, rivalries, and adventure. It is a truly fascinating experience and one you won’t soon forget. You will also see gorgeous gardens, ancient churches, Hollywood movie sites, and the armory built in 1798! You will truly feel like you have traveled back in time to 100 years ago!

You can find out more information about Southurn Rose Buggy Tours or Sea Island Carriage Company on their website or you can stop by the visitor center (713 Craven Street) to purchase your ticket.
