Our Calendar
We took advantage of Saltwater Cycles boat tour for our bachelorette party in early October to kick off our party night downtown Charleston
Sarah was very entertaining, accommodating, and kept our conversations fun.
The views were pretty. The boat was comfortable. And the atmosphere was perfect!
So much fun and even played some games on the boat. Thanks for a great ride and see you next time!
Carter and Tim were phenomenal and added to what was already exceeding expectations.
I would highly recommend them and I will absolutely be booking with them again.
