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.

This was my and my husbands third tour with Evans. He is extremely knowledgeable and a phenomenal tour guide! This tour in particular was great in that it gave us some insight into the history of the neighborhoods in which people lived. Overall it was a beautiful tour with lots of interesting information.

Great way to find areas you might not otherwise see. Evans was a great guide….knowledgeable about history, architecture and flauta, plus a great sense of humor!

Our guide was truly an expert on the history of Charleston. We learned so much about the architecture and people of Charleston. Be prepared to do a lot of walking and standing. Bring water.
