Charleston's Hidden Alleyways & Historic Sites Small-Group Walking Tour

Charleston's Hidden Alleyways & Historic Sites Small-Group Walking Tour

Overview

Explore some of Charleston's enchanting alleyways and historic sites on this small group, 2-hour walking tour. With our small group tours, you are guaranteed a more intimate and up-close experience. Charleston's alleyways are fortunately located within the popular historic district which allows us to include some well known points of interest and go a little "off the beaten path” while exploring the history and beauty of Charleston's enchanting alleyways. Generally, we include between four to six different alleyways/passages as well as popular points of interest like Rainbow Row and of course, tons of history! These pedestrian passageways are often overlooked, but walking along these cobbled paths is an opportunity to appreciate Charleston's rich history and hidden, more intimate charms.

This experience made us feel as if we were in a different country or Era. Excellent guide with wonderful tidbits of history. I've already recommended this tour to my family back home! Great way to explore a new city and spend an afternoon. Even my teenagers appreciated it. Captain Jim was wonderful and full of knowledge. This is a MUST for anyone visiting Charleston.

Our guide Jim was fantastic! He was knowledgeable and interesting without being pedantic. Gave us tons of info and showed us all kinds of fascinating things about Charleston that a first time visitor wouldn’t have a clue about. We loved his passion for history and botany! Highly recommend!!!!!
