5.00Heather; Our Tour guide began our tour by going back to 1861, The civil war era. She was a very passion narrator about the events and the people in the time. After giving us an overview, we visited many of the sights she described. The Robert Smalls house, The Harriet Tubman statue, the Military Cemetery. Of Course, the Big Chill house and other more contemporary sights. We loved Heather and recommend her tour. The next day, we borrowed the bikes provided by Anchorage 1770 and took a leisurely bike ride around to to revisit and rediscuss all the homes and historic spots that Heather previewed for us. Thank you Heather. Best city tour ever.
