Bill was a wealth of information about the history of Beaufort and the movies that were made here. We were a group of 4 so the tour seemed personal and engaging. Personally, I feel that if you want to learn about the history from pre civil war to current; you’d be hard pressed to find a better tour guide. Don’t worry about the golf cart; it’s a great way to see the area and it makes taking pictures really easy.

The golf cart allows for some great photos! Since we started the golf cart tours, a lot of our TripAdvisor reviews include photos now!

I am a local and Beaufort Tours is my "go to" tour company when I have visitors. We recently took the Pat Conroy's Beaufort Tour and everyone loved it. Our tour guide, Janet, was awesome. In addition to being a great tour guide, she was also fun and entertaining. My guests loved the tour. I've taken several of the tours offered by Beaufort Tours and I always learn something new.
