Quote from Our Travelers

“Our trip to Charleston with Beyond Times Square was awesome! They handled all the details, so we could just kick back and enjoy everything the city has to offer. They made our vacation a custom-made adventure – which we loved because we didn’t waste time doing things we weren’t interested in. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”

“Our Charleston foodie adventure was unforgettable! One of our favorite experiences was when we got to pick out fresh ingredients at a local market and then later returned to a chef-prepared meal with the ingredients we chose! We also did a creative cocktail tour that was super fun. Next stop is Savannah – with Beyond Times Square of course!”
