Great city tour. This was my first time to Charlotte and I picked this best tour in my opinion. Sheri was a fabulous, very informative. She really knows this city from restaurants, all of the different historical and non historical attractions. Southern Charm Rides is the tour to take when you are in Charlotte.

Tour was great! Went downtown Charlotte, fairly new to the area, thought it would be fun to try something different and learn as well. Our tour guide Sheri was fabulous, very knowledgeable, and knew the area well, lots of fun facts! Highly recommend for a family time out. So much fun history, we had no idea!! Cant wait to go back to Charlotte and personally try out some of the amazing restaurants we learned about as well. Highly recommend Southern Charm Rides tour!!!

I loved the tour with Southern Charm Rides. Sheri was awesome! We toured some local attractions, historical homes, restaurants and we stopped at the farmer's market. If you are in Charlotte, Southern Charm Rides can show you around town!
