We really enjoyed our tour and the best part was the historical district. Our guide was very well informed and made the ride interesting and did her best to make everyone comfortable as it was chilly! Only thing we would advise future tourist is that if you go with the cart that the seats don't all face the same direction and you are hard of hearing it may be difficult to hear the tour guide! Make sure the seats all face the same direction!

Thank you for such a great review. I’m glad you enjoyed your tour. Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately most carts have those rear seats. I do stop so everyone can see a great view. Southern Charm always strives to give the best historical tour in Charlotte, so we will be carrying a voice amplifier to avoid this in the future so that anyone with a hearing difficulty will enjoy just as much! Thanks for letting us know and for touring with Southern Charm!

We didn't know what time we would be arriving in Charlotte and called only a couple hours ahead. We know we were lucky there were two spots available for us. Our guide, Sherri Neal was EXCELLENT! She pointed out "everything" and is very knowledgeable. We are from Michigan and had never been to NC. We found the tour informative and interesting. Sherri was friendly and made the tour enjoyable. We went back to a couple places after the tour. This tour helped us make the most of our time in Charlotte.
