An amazing tour. We had Sheri, she was very knowledgeable about the area. We will use her next year for a different tour when we visit the area.

Open air golf cart tour of the heart of the city. Witty, some times salty, and knowledgeable commentary included.

Absolutely fantastic tour! Mackey is the perfect mix of comedian and historian—his energy is infectious, and his storytelling is top-tier. He brought Uptown Charlotte to life with fascinating facts, juicy historical tidbits, and just the right amount of sass. We laughed, we learned, and we walked away seeing the city in a whole new light. If you’re in Charlotte and want more than just a boring history lesson, Mackey’s tour is a must. Five stars isn’t enough!
