Our family travels a lot. We like taking private tours in many parts of the world because we believe it adds a flavor of local culture to the common tourist spots. In Charleston, we were so very lucky to find Eric and book a 2.5hr tour with his company Charleston History Walk. There is no better way I could imagine to spend the time getting familiar with this city than being with the guy who is a professor at the Citadel and his PhD dissertation was
related to the area. The tour was a great mix of the city's history, state history, architecture, and just general historical factoids. I wish every city had an Eric available.
