We had a great tour with Jim, who explained made the history of the city accessible and interesting. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to learn more about this historic city.

My family took the historical walking tour (ages 19-59) and really enjoyed it. The guide Jim, was great and very informative. He knew a lot about the city and pointed out many interesting historical and architectural facts. This was one of the first things we did and was a nice way to get our bearings in the city. The tour was also concise and let’s you learn a lot without taking the whole day. We would defiantly do another tour with Jim and Lowcountry tours.

Wanted to learn a little about the history of the city. Wow! Pre-Revolution, American Revolution, War of 1812, War of Northern Aggression, etc. etc. Very knowledgeable staff and they all seem to know one another as we crossed paths!
