I joined this walking tour on my first day in Charleston, and I'm so glad I did. Our tour guide Dennis was fantastic: he was so knowledgeable about the whole region and history. We hit all the major highlights of historic Charleston, and it was a great introduction to the city. I can't recommend this tour highly enough.

Dennis, our guide was so knowledgeable but also passionate about the history of his city. We found his amusing anecdotes very engaging and he brought the history of Charleston to life in a most enjoyable and entertaining way. So glad we went with this company and so fortunate to have been assigned to Dennisā€™s group. Highly recommend this walking tour to anyone visiting the city.

Well meaning presenter. Too many maps, knowledgeable about horticulture, prefer more stories to details

We are disappointed to learn that our tour did not live up to your expectations, as guest satisfaction is our number one priority as a company. We have wonderful guides who are highly experienced and love to share their expertise, doing their absolute best to capture the imagination of their group. We regret that your experience was contrary to the efforts of this particular guide. We will be sure to pass along your feedback. I hope that the next time you are in Charleston you will give us an opportunity to exceed your expectations, perhaps on a different tour or with another one of our talented tour guides. I hope you enjoyed the remainder of your time in Charleston.
