Our tour guide Scott was awesome! He was personable and extremely knowledgeable about the area and history of Charlotte! My son and I are visiting colleges here and wanted to learn about the town….we definitely picked the right tour! :)

We booked the tour to be driven around in a golf cart; however, a van appeared with foggy windows. No one contacted us about the change. Couldn’t see much out the window, and could barely hear the driver. Complete waste of time and money.

We have posted that in incremental weather we use our heated shuttle bus. We do this for the safety and comfort of our guest. It was 40 degrees and raining on Saturday and doing a 90 min tour on a moving opened air vehicle would have been miserable. We would have been happy to reschedule you or offered a full refund if you had asked before you took the 90 min tour on our heated bus. It's disappointing that you would leave a 1 star review for us for providing a heated bus on a day with terrible weather conditions without calling us first to discuss any issues you had. Please feel free to call us at 1 833 868-7258 to discuss further. Thanks
