Daufuskie Island Guided History Tour from Hilton Head

Overview

Tucked between Hilton Head Island and Savannah, and accessible only by boat, Daufuskie Island is a real gem. This 4-hour Daufuskie Island trip provides a glimpse into a fascinating chapter of Lowcountry history on the undeveloped side of the island. Meet local artisans and learn the rich history of the Native Americans, European settlers, the cotton trade, and the Gullah culture. We encourage you to wear weather appropriate clothing, and bring water, snacks, and sunscreen.

Please be aware: Our tour is completely structured and does not include a stop for lunch.

The History of the Gullah people on the island, including visiting the “white” and “colored” school houses and the First African Methodist Church and slave “Praise House”. Also, Andy was insightful, knowledgeable, and friendly.

Beautiful scenery abundant with wildlife such as birds and dolphins. Our guide had in depth historical knowledge about South Carolina and Daufuskie island. The tour is 4.5 hours so bring snacks and water.

Highly recommend booking this excursion/tour. Our guide, Andy, did an excellent job from start to finish. Very informed on the facts as well as local beliefs, customs, cultures and handed-down stories. From the smooth boat ride to the island tour by golf cart, everyone on our tour (8 tourists) enjoyed our day during the 5 hour tour.
