You can generally find lower rates and greater availability in December, January and February. Check out our cheap Charleston holiday packages and you could score some excellent off-season deals.
How many days is enough for Charleston?
Charleston holidays can be as short or long as you like, but to really sink your teeth into this place, we reckon 3 days is a good ballpark. In this timeframe, you can fit in major attractions like International African American Museum and Gibbes Museum of Art along with underrated gems.

Use Expedia's filter tool to help you find some of the best Charleston package deals. When you begin your search, just set your maximum budget and then sort the results by "Price: low to high."

Is it cheaper to book a Charleston holiday as a package?
