Charleston's Boat Tours
- Three Ways to Get on the Water -
Not every group wants the same thing, and that’s exactly why we built three different ways to cruise. Private boat tours in Charleston give you the full Friki Tiki experience: the whole boat, your rules, available every day. Our semi-private option lets you share the boat with one other group: same great vibes, lower price tag. And every Thursday evening from 6 to 8pm, we run a public sunset cruise in Charleston, complete with live local music and the harbor lighting up gold. Pick your style below and check availability.
$700/hr for groups up to 20 people
+ $200 · Up to 25 guests
+ $400 · Up to 32 guests
Perfect for Birthdays, Family Reunions, Corporate Groups, Special Events and Bachelorette or Bachelor parties who want the boat all to themselves!
Available Every Day
• 2hr Cruise: $80/person
• 2.5hr Cruise: $100/person
• 3hr Cruise: $120/person

Why Charleston Keeps Coming Back to the Friki Tiki
With 465+ five-star reviews, the Friki Tiki is consistently rated one of the top things to do in Charleston, SC. Bachelorette parties love us because we’re the party boat Charleston brides actually want — no strangers, no schedule you didn’t set, just your crew and the harbor. Couples come for the Thursday sunset cruise. Corporate groups come for the team-building boat tours on the Ashley River. First-timers show up for a booze cruise in Charleston and leave already planning their next trip. The harbor’s the same for everyone. The experience on the Friki Tiki isn’t.

July 24, 2025Tiki Tours was the highlight of our trip. 9 of us really enjoyed our 2 1/2 hour boat tour. They were on time to pick us up with fantastic communication prior to our departure. They had coolers with ice and a loud speaker waiting on board for when we arrived. About halfway through the trip, they inflated rafts and let us swim. They had props and helped video/photo our fun. Highly recommend this boat tour!
