    We had the best time with these guys! The sunset was amazing. Captains play list was rocking. What a wonderful way to see the sunset. I would definitely go again. Thank you for allowing us to spend my husband's birthday on your boat. Kenneth and Vickie Whisnant from Vale NC

    Thank you to the Sandlapper team for making our Halloween unforgettable! My mom and I were visiting Charleston for a long weekend and came across the Harbor Ghost Tour. It ended up being the highlight of our trip and gave us a new appreciation for Charleston’s rich history!

    Had a fantastic sunset cruise. Water was a bit choppy and weather was breezy/chily but we still saw all the sights and heard the interesting and hilarious stories that we're still telling days later. Sunset was spectacular in spite of (because of?) the cloudy skies. Tunes were outstanding. Best activity on our Charleston vacation!

    Loved our sunset cruise on the Palmetto! Staff was friendly and fun. The dolphins (and sky) put on a show, the boat was clean, the music playlist was fun and we enjoyed hearing all the factoids about the Charleston harbor and sites. The sky, which was gloomy and cloudy when we departed, gave us the most beautiful low country sunset I have seen in a while. Highly recommend this for a laid back, enjoyable evening with friends and family!
