Tim was amazing! My girlfriend and I went to Charleston for a girls weekend. Tim ended up canceling our tour for our scheduled date due to a family emergency, but offered us a private tour for the following day! How kind was that?! We were so thankful and grateful that he offered a private tour out of kindness. He was very personable and knew ALL the history of Charleston. He took us to see many hidden gems and knew so many facts. We were so impressed by his passion for history and knowledge! We would tour again with him for sure!
