Tim’s tour was awesome. We learned so much about Charleston and had a great time while doing so. Tim’s knowledge of his hometown is truly impressive - only to be matched by his knowledge of American history. I highly recommend this tour!

Timothy Trouche did an amazing job as our tour guide on a beautiful afternoon in Charleston. He knew so many things about the city’s history and even little tidbits like names of plants and details about architecture. Because his family has been there for so many generations he has personal experiences to share. He also has a great speaking voice that carries well without any magnifying aid. I highly recommend his tours.
