This was a great tour. Our guide, Gia, was friendly and knowledgeable. She is a local and shared so much of Charleston’s history too. The food at all 3 places plus a bakery treat was delicious. I definitely recommend this tour.

First of all, hubby and I ran about 10 mins late and Gia was extra nice and accommodating about it. The eateries we explored were delicious and Gia was very knowledgeable of their history! The staff of every restaurant we visited seemed to LOVE Gia and that made the tour feel like we were visiting family. 100% recommend!!
