Knowledgeable tourism

Published on Jan, 2025

Had an intimate excursion with our guide, Jeff since only my fiancé and I shown up. Jeff was funny and very detailed with his stories as we walked through the beautiful city. Would highly recommend going on this tour

Pirate and ghost tour

Published on Jan, 2025

We did the pirate and ghost tour with Jeff on 1/1/2025. Jeff was terrific. Very lively and knowledgeable on the subjects. Really enjoyed the tour. The ghost and pirate stories were fascinating.

Fun history

Published on Dec, 2024

Guide was a good storyteller, she tailored tour to our interests, good variety of tales, casual and fun tour with our small family group

Emerson, best tour guide EVER!

Published on Dec, 2024

Emerson's VAST knowledge and ability to tell a story was incredible! Even in a steady rain he never lost his enthusiasm and kept us hanging on every word! We were lucky enough to see him again on the History of Charleston walking tour. Without a doubt, the best part of our trip was having him show us around downtown. Best tour guide EVER.

So much fun!

Published on Dec, 2024

So glad I decided to book this. Guide really knew his stuff and was good at reading the group and delivered an awesome tour
