5.00Kim was a wonderful driver. She was local and knew all of the history. We have a private tour of the whole Peninsula, she gave us so much information. We felt like locals by the time we were done. Her knowledge and professionalism was outstanding.

5.00How many times have you been on a bus tour where you know the tour guide is talking and just telling you things they memorized? It happens all over the world. I found the brochure for the Charms of Charleston Bus Tour at the Visitor Center. It stood out from all of the other tours. When you take the bus tour with the Charms Of Charleston, Kim Wood gives you a complete tour packed with local flavor. Kim's hospitality and knowledge will give you lots of memories to take home. That's what travel and touring is all about. Thanks Kim!

5.00My husband and two friends of mine took this excursion on 10/24/25. We all agreed it was one of the best bus tours (small sized bus) we have ever been on. Not only was our guide extremely knowledgeable but also extremely funny. I would highly recommend this tour to get an oversight of Charleston. If I could Kim more than five stars I would.

5.00This tour was a last minute add for us, so glad we decided to do it. Tour guide is knowledgeable on the Charleston history and has a magnificent way to relay that information. She shared information and paused in places for pictures and to provide chance to ask questions. Amazing tour, highly recommend if you are in Charleston.
