The tour was both educational and entertaining. Al was a great upbeat guide who kept everything moving. Overall a great introduction to the city. Probably most beneficial to take when you first arrive in Charleston.

Our tour guide Al was fantastic. He has a ton of historical facts and conveys them in a fun way. Found out a lot about Charleston that I didn't know. Highly recommend the walking tour and Al the tour guide.

Interesting and informative tour of The historic district of Charleston. Capt Jim was a great guide and we were very happy with the places we visited and the entire experience overall.

Well educated tour guides giving interesting and useful information about the area, architecture, a ghost story or to and traditions of the city. We learned so much and the magic QR code at the end of the tour offered more options to further our exploration of the town, stores, and places to eat. We were able to ask many questions and the tour kept you moving along so that you were only standing for a few minutes before you moved along. The small tour size limit helps to hear the guide as well. It was fantastic and we wish we could give them 10 ⭐️
