Boat ride was okay.
Island is not worth the trip.
Rental vehicle was too expensive.
Will not be back.

The guys were very nice and made the journey enjoyable. Pointed out few things on the way. They obeyed the water way rules.

The boat departed on time in both directions. Boats seemed very safe, and the crew was personable. A good way to get to Daufuskie Island. One thing: the return time was earlier than advertised on the website, but we were fine with returning to HH Island earlier.

This was such an easy way for me to book my daufuskie day date trip with someone who had never been before! We had the best time! And everything went so smoothe! I will definitely be using Viator again for future bookings!

What a great time we had discovering the island. It was like traveling back in time. The people were great and Arden, our captain was very thoughtful and offered lots of insights as we crossed the water. I don’t think we learned as much as we would have had we taken a tour but we sure had fun, in spite of the rain!

We had fun driving around the island in a golf cart. Had a map and explored the island. It was an adventure. Beautiful place.
