      Outstanding architectural review conducted in a model T Ford replica. Warm blankets were thoughtfully provided.
      Our guide was very congenial and knowledgeable, adding many interesting details to the history of the architecture of Galveston.

      Makes History Facinating!
      This tour is the best of the three tours we took in Galveston. Very knowledgeable certified tourism ambassador sure beats the competition. Factually reliable but not the least bit dull. Go on this one.

      Fantastic Tour
      This tour is a must in Galveston. We toured the city in an electric model T (so fun) with our fun tour guide Willie D. He was very knowledgeable about the Galveston area, the 1900 flood, the Restoring Galveston properties. It was a great way to see the historic districts and the beautiful homes.

      Galveston Getaway
      Our group really enjoyed our private tour with Carriage House Rentals and our tour guide Willy! He had a great sense of humor, came prepared with before and after pictures and got overviews of historical renovations, had interesting facts about the Cardroys show, Galveston itself and were shown many sites that really would be undisclosed otherwise.

      AHOOGA
      We rent one of the new/old cars from Carriage Haus every time we stay on the island. They are designed to look like old Model T cars but are all electric. The staff gives a thorough overview of the car and all safety instructions, however, if you can drive a golf cart, you can drive one of these. They are so much fun to sport around in and it is way easier to see the sights than from a full-sized car. People cannot help but smile as you pass, but if they don’t just honk the horn at them and they won’t be able to resist. The horns go AHOOGA instead of beep-beep. We just learned that they are giving tours now and want to try one when we go back.

      Awesome tour!
      My husband and my life long girl friend took this tour as part of our pre-cruise fun in Galveston! It was great! I have long been a fan of the tv show Restoring Galveston with Ashley and Michael Cordray and thought it would be great fun to see some of their homes if I ever got to Galveston again. When we booked a cruise and decided to spend a couple days in Galveston prior to the cruise. I began looking for a tour and found this one. How perfect! It was such a great experience!!! Our tour guide, Willie D, was wonderful! Informative and entertaining! All 3 of us absolutely loved it!

      AMAZING Customer Service
      A group of us were not able to go on this tour at the very last minute due to an unexpected health issue. There are not enough words to describe the kindness and grace we were given by this company. I am so grateful for the understanding. Thank you and if we ever make our way to Galveston again we will certainly re book with you.

      Wonderful and thorough history of the 1900 storm. So many stories about the storm, and the opportunity to see where it happened. Plan on doing it again next time we are here!

      East End Galveston Tour
      Willie our tour guide gave us a wonderful customer experience. So personable and knowledgeable. Took us to the sites "we have seen on TV," fun night. Also saw the twice a year citizens visiting some of the very lovely properties in Galveston. Also, we're intrigued to take The Mob Tour, hosted by Willie.

      Best Ghost Tour on the Islan
      We did the Ghost Tour with Carriage Haus. The driver/tour guide as fantastic and merged some super interesting Galveston history along with the ghost stories and sites. She drove us all around the historic east end and to the seawall to points of interest. I have done a couple of other ghost tours and this one was definitely the best. My group had a blast! Will definitely try another tour!

      AMAZING!
      I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience! The customer service was outstanding, the owners are beyond friendly, knowledgeable, and run a fantastic business! The shop is really cool, PLUS, the fleet of cars were amazing! We loved our car, “Grandma.” (All cars have personalized names! Make sure to ask who your car is named after and don’t forget to add the Bluetooth speaker!) We had an absolute blast in our model T touring Galveston with our beach music!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! 💚💚💚

      Absolutely loved it!
      What a fun time! We had heard about these "Model T" cars you could rent. We found Carriage Haus Rentals online and stopped by. Greeted by a very nice gentleman who turned out to be the owner. He answered our questions, got us set up, and away we went with a map of the Galveston tree carvings. We had many folks looking at us as we drove, and even had a couple ask if they could take a picture in front of the car. Absolutely loved it!

    When researching golf carts in Galveston for an upcoming trip, I came upon Carriage Haus. When my wife took one look at the vehicles, that was it. I signed up on line immediately. When we arrived, we were treated like we had been going there forever. Any questions we had, they were answered. Any requests that we had, were taken care of. The Model-T golf cart was a blast. Using the frog type horn was fun when we came upon tourists on the street. They seemed to love it as much as we did. We used it to tour the whole town. We had a blast. The only thing that was a little problem with my wife is that I had to explain that golf carts do not have shock absorbers and the streets of Galveston leave something to be desired. Between a super easy booking, an easy "lets cover everything in the vehicle before you leave" talk, and easy return. I would have to say that this experience deserves the 5 stars.

    If you are looking for a fun and unique way to travel around Galveston Island, look no further! From the outstanding customer service to the uniquely detailed Model-T Ford Golf Carts, no detail has been left out!
    These carts have a fun horn, round headlights, and a carriage top… the best part? They run quiet! It’s not a loud engine sound.
    Our process was very easy and the owners were incredibly kind. They walked us through all the details, met us at the shop and described the ins and outs and they went over the rules of the road (it was outlined in their paperwork but we all know that we tend to skim!). They even decorated it for us to celebrate our event!
    I highly recommend doing business with Carriage Haus Rentals - for the entire experience!

    It was totally awesome renting one of the golf carts. Would absolutely do it again. The staff was very friendly and gave us a map of self guided tour of the carved trees we had fun searching for them. They went over everything on the cart to make sure we knew how to operate and gave us a map of streets we couldn’t drive on.

    We went on the Mob Tour with “Willie D” as our guide. He drove us all around downtown Galveston & the sea wall & gave us a great tour and history lesson on who & what build Galveston. We went with our 11 & 6 year old & we all had a great time as we acquired a little more insight into the city!

    Cruising through Galveston, in Miss Millie, was definitely the highlight of our little mini vacation. We had a party of two adults and four teenagers and she fit everyone very comfortably. And, the ahooga horn was a huge hit. Prices are very reasonable and staff was extremely friendly. Will, definitely, rent again.

    Awesome unique experience! My friends and I enjoyed seeing downtown Historic Galveston using a map they supplied. The map leads you to homes with beautiful carvings in their yards. We then enjoyed a nice lunch on the strand. A great way to sight see beautiful Galveston.

    2 hour rental with family. Had a lot of fun. The streets along the Strand are a bit bumpy and not in the best shape so it was a bit of a rough ride at some points but we had a really good time. Bonus, you get free parking with the rental!

    Was in Galveston for a sisters trip celebrating a 60th birthday. This was the last thing we did before heading home due to getting rained out Saturday night. It was well worth getting home after midnight. This was the most fun. We drove around hunting the turtle statutes. Highly recommend this to anyone wanting to rent a golf cart in Galveston.
