This tour is a must if you are a first time visitor or even as a Charlotte native!! As a homeschool mom of 4, I wanted my kids to learn the history of our city. Sheri was a fantastic tour quide and very knowledgeable. I grew up in Charlotte, but learned many things about the city that I never knew. I highly recommend Southern Charm Rides. You will not be disappointed!

Just an interesting and fun experience around Charlotte. Particularly in areas of the area we would not have seen, like the 4th ward. Sheri’s knowledge and antidotes were informative and entertaining. Very accommodating, dropped us off at our hotel when the tour was over. An entertaining, informative, and relaxed tour I would highly recommend.
