Planning Your Time

Planning Your Time

The best way to get acquainted with Charleston is to take a carriage ride, especially those that take you through the South of Broad neighborhood. After the ride, carriage companies drop you off near the Old City Market in the North of Broad neighborhood, where you can wander looking for souvenirs. You can get acquainted with Charleston's historic district at your leisure, especially if you can devote at least three days to the city. You'll have time to explore some of the plantations west of the Ashley River. With another day, you can explore Mount Pleasant, and if you have more time, head out to the coastal islands, where you can play golf or visit the beach; you can even stay in a condo or villa out here and enjoy the fresh sea breezes.
