Bus was new and very clean/roomy. The host is very knowledgeable and friendly. You visit Conroy's home in Beaufort, the High School he attended and learn interesting facts about his youth. The stop at his grave and the history of the cemetery is moving. Well worth the money

Fantastic day spent touring my favorite author's stomping ground, with a wonderful tour guide (Bill) and some special guests who shed a personal light on Pat Conroy's life. Anyone who has ever enjoyed any or all of his books will thoroughly enjoy this tour. The last stop was a visit to the Pat Conroy Literary Center (a must for any Conroy reader).

We had a really great tour yesterday. Although I have lived in Beaufort for 10 years and am familiar with Pat Conroy and his work, I learned quite a few new tidbits of information! It was a fun tour and Bill was a gracious host. Highly recommend!
