Charleston: Off The Beaten Path

Overview

Peace and quiet is what makes this tour special. We walk the streets in a less traveled part of the historic district passing beautiful gardens, stately homes, and visit the inside of two breathtaking churches. This is a part of the city missed by the average guest, and one that you surely wouldn't want to miss yourself.

What To Expect

St. Michael's Church

During the week we go into the church which has been standing longer than any other house of worship in the city, 1761. See three Tiffany stained glass windows, and the famous pew 43.

Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist

This is like walking into Europe. Without a doubt this is the most beautiful interior in the city.

Battery & White Point Gardens

Once an oyster bed known as White Point, this area was developed on landfill specifically for a park. It served as a battery of cannons during the Civil War and was also the site of the execution of Steve Bonnet, the Gentleman Pirate.

Evans made the tour personable and very enjoyable. He is extremely knowledgeable about the history and deeper meanings related to the history of Charleston. He answered our questions thoughtfully and made us feel like we have a new friend in Charleston.

My wife and I booked this walking tour last minute on our last day of our weekend visit, and it ended up being a private tour for the two of us. We learned so much and were also throughly entertained. Evans is a fantastic tour guide and incredibly knowledgeable. He knows so many of the local residents, shop owners, and vendors and we found his small talk and banter with those along the way particularly charming. We would take this tour or any of his others again. Highly recommended.
