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.

We tried to choose an excursion for every member of the family and my 14yrs daughter loves history, so I thought this was a good choice. Our captain, Doreen, was exceptional, even allowing the boat to catch sight of dolphins and accommodating requests of the like. We could feel and see the love that Doreen has for the island, its history, and current inhabitants (including Brownie, the Marsh Tacky!) and it made the tour very special to see those interactions. We will not forget this incredible experience and the spirit of the island. It has a warmth, humility, and reverence to it. I feel blessed to have experienced just a short time there.

Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We are so thrilled you and daughter had such a memorable time with Captain Doreen on Daufuskie. We hope to see you again soon!

I learned things from the trip. Wish that we saw more of the island. Would have liked a map of the island since I feel that we missed more of the island.

My family went on the Daufuskie Island Guided Tour today with Pippi and we had the best time. It was the highlight of our trip to Hilton Head. My brother and I are in our mid-twenties and parents in mid-fifties. There were kids who looked about as young as eight or nine in our group. Pippi did an excellent job of outlining the history of the land. Her compassion for the people was contagious. She also had other great Hilton Head recommendations. My next trip I will be back on another adventure with this company and I hope to bring my own family someday too to Daufuskie!
