Very chill tour with a few cool, haunting stories. I thought 915 would be too late- it was perfect, great length tour. Relaxed vibe- 3 teen boys enjoyed.
Great way to end the night!

My son really wanted to go on a haunted tour while we were in CHS, and this was the only one that didn’t involve more walking so we bought tickets at the last minute for the 9:15 cruise. I’m so glad we did! Lee was a great storyteller. We learned some really interesting history and enjoyed a nice cruise at the same time. I did NOT expect to be so close to the Yorktown so that was a pleasant surprise:) I would definitely recommend this excursion.
Highly recommend!

One or two of the stories were enjoyable. But other than that it should be marketed as a drinking cruise.

Fun informative little water trip

I was hoping for spooky stories on the water, but it was still fun!
Very informative about the history of some of the deaths in Charleston. I wish I could have brought my son, but he was under 3, luckily my father in law watched him for us.

I am trying to get a refund and so far it has not been approved. They cancelled it because of the weather. The charge was for 8 of us over $300
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Leanne, thanks for the unnecessary 1 star. Our company works hard to provide our customers a great experience. Might I take a moment to remind you of the details of your booking that you conveniently left out? On Thursday 6/16/2022, you booked a party of 8 for the Haunted Harbor Cruise through a third party - Viator at 0829. Unfortunately, the trip was cancelled due to severe weather in the area and you were advised that you would receive a full refund. At 9:22pm on 6/16/2022 (the same day) a refund was issued through TripAdvisor/Viator booking system by Sandlapper Tours. Viator then begins their refund process back to the credit card that you purchased your tickets with through them. Depending on your credit card company it can take between 3 to 7 days to show your refund on your credit card account. However, you decided to give us a one star rating (the lowest possible) the next day 6/17/2022 as if we were holding your money hostage. We are sorry that your trip was cancelled because of bad weather and can understand your disappointment. We do hope that you feel better after leaving us a negative review and that you were able to enjoy your stay while visiting Charleston.
Wonderful tour

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
