Perfect for a tour for a overall view of Charleston. And the price was right! Driver Alan was very knowledgeable about the town's history and I learned enough to want to return! I liked the fact that we could get off at the last stop, which was the market area. I spent the rest of the day shopping and had a great dinner. Can't wait to return with friends!

We look forward to seeing you again! Yes, we always offer the option to get off at the City Market instead of back to the Visitors Center. Bonus, the City of Charleston even offers a free trolley called the DASH if you need to catch a ride back later!

Bus driver friendly and knowledgeable. Showed us historic sights through downtown Charleston. Answered questions in a courteous manner. Told us a lot of history of churches, museums, the Citadel and many other interesting areas

Wonderful look into history. Funniest park ranger ever…history nerd. I didn’t feel there was enough time at the fort for the last group of the day as we were blessed to participate in the flag lowering which ate up time. Would highly recommend this tour especially for young people who are missing American History in school.
