Our guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable about the history of the places we visited. Also was very up to date on the current residents history. Very enjoyable afternoon. Will definitely do another tour!

The boat ride over and back was enjoyable and informative. The golf cart tour of the island with Captain Andy hit all the high spots. He is very knowledgeable. There was never a dull moment.

This tour was an afternoon boat trip over to Daufuskie from Hilton Head. It took about an hour and a half for the trip over and about an hour for the return. The trip length depends on the direction of the wind and the tide. So the time on the island is about 2 hours which is adequate to get a good idea of the local history. The guide was also able to talk about the history while we traveled over on the boat. We wish we could have spent more time on the island. This is a great tour if you are interested in Pat Conroy's book, The Water is Wide, or the movie "Conrack," based on the book. Most important is the history of the Gullah people.
