Even though I was born and raised in Beaufort, I learn something new every time from this tour. The staff and guides are always friendly and knowledgeable. They take time with their new staff to train them properly and really put them at ease. Everyone seems to enjoy what they do. I highly recommend this tour to all of my friends and anyone who loves history.

I hate to throw someone under the bus (or in this case under the carriage) but the tour was awful. We had two guides (I don't know if that is typical or not) but one was very experienced (Anastasia) and other was a trainee who was in no way ready to face paying customers It became painfully obvious that the trainee was not ready because she kept "forgetting her words" (as she said) and the experienced guide would take over and was awesome but then turn it over to the trainee again and it was back to bad! The experienced guide was great and this made the trainee appear even less effective and made me wish I had booked a different tour.
