Old South Carriage Company is looking for charismatic storytellers to join our team as Haunted Carriage Tour Guides. If you enjoy captivating an audience, bringing stories to life, and creating unforgettable experiences, this may be a perfect fit!

As a Haunted Carriage Tour Guide, you'll lead guests through the historic streets of downtown Charleston by horse-drawn carriage, sharing the city's most fascinating ghost stories, legends, and mysterious history. Every evening, you'll entertain visitors from around the world while working alongside our incredible team and beautiful draft horses.

We offer paid training, industry-leading pay, flexible evening scheduling, and the opportunity to work for Charleston's premier tour company.

About Old South Carriage Company

For more than 43 years, Old South Carriage Company has been Charleston's premier horse-drawn carriage tour company. With more than 40 horses and the city's largest fleet of carriages, we've built our reputation on exceptional hospitality, outstanding storytelling, and unmatched care for our horses.

While we're one of Charleston's largest tour operators, we remain proudly family-owned and committed to providing every guest with a personal, memorable experience. Many of our guides have spent years—even decades—with our company because we invest in hiring and training the very best.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
