5.00Liz was very charismatic with deep roots in Charleston. It was a great tour and kept me entertained. Living in the area, she shared lots of information I didn’t know. She also had lots of personal experiences that added to the tour. 10/10

5.00Liz was a delightful guide. Her tour was the favorite part of our vacation to Charleston. She keeps her tour groups small, and that was a real advantage. She gave us the most interesting details as we walked through great parts of the city. We felt like she really wanted us to have a special time. Thank you, Liz!
Entertaining, informative Tour

5.00Liz was highly knowledgeable, fun and had wonderful stories that brought all the building we looked at to life. We got some steps in, walked at a good pace including the French quarter, antebellum area, the battery/waterfront. Definitely worth it and more enjoyable that trying to navigate on our own. No brainer....just book this one!
