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.

If you love the author, Pat Conroy, you must do this tour. We were fortunate enough to have not only our tour guide, Bill share his vast knowledge of Conroy but we had a docent from the Pat Conroy Literary Center join us. Thanks, Will for coming along and making the tour even more special!

As huge fans of Pat Conroy, we love giving this tour of the town that he loved from age 15 on - Pat did say he "clung to Beaufort like a barnacle!"

Janet was a great tour guide .She was enthusiastic and very well informed. The tour was well worth the price and we learned not only about Pat Conroy , a great deal of low country history! Highly recommended!
