How does a pedicab work?

A pedicab is a bike-powered taxi. Your driver pedals a three-wheeled cycle with a comfortable bench seat up in the rear, taking you wherever you need to go downtown. It's open-air, eco-friendly, and a whole lot more fun than sitting in a car.

How much does a pedicab cost in Charleston?

Pricing depends on the length of your ride and your group size. Short trips are quick and affordable, and we're happy to quote weddings, groups, and special occasions in advance. Check our Rides & Pricing page or reach out for a quote.

Is a pedicab safe in Charleston?

Yes. Our drivers are experienced, know the downtown streets inside and out, and operate carefully through traffic. We take your safety seriously on every ride.

Pedicab vs. Uber in Charleston, which is better?

For getting around the downtown peninsula, a pedicab is often faster and far more fun. There's no parking, no surge pricing, and no waiting on an app, plus you get the open-air views and local tips along the way. For short downtown hops, nothing beats it.

Do I need a reservation, or can I flag one down?

Both work. Our pedicabs cruise the peninsula day and night, so you can wave us down near King Street or the City Market. For weddings, groups, and events, we recommend booking ahead so we're ready for you.

What are Charleston Pedicab's hours?

We operate Sunday through Thursday from 9am to midnight, and Friday and Saturday until 1am, weather permitting. Most days our drivers are out even earlier and stay later.

How many people can ride at once?

Our pedicabs comfortably seat 2 to 3 passengers. For larger groups, we'll coordinate multiple pedicabs so everyone stays together.

Do you take credit cards?

Yes, we accept credit cards, along with cash and Venmo.
