What a wonderful tour. The van is neat and clean, slightly cramped if full. Nick was very knowledgeable and informative about the history of Charleston. He wove his way around the city sharing information about the historiy of buildings and the city itself. Highly recommend this tour.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. The tour was mainly of the downtown area. The mini van was very comfortable and this was a great way to see the city.

Nick was an amazing tour guide. He was funny, social, and incredibly knowledgeable. Our family was curious about Charleston’s haunted history, and even though it wasn’t part of the tour, he added a few stories that made the experience even better. He arrived right on time, and the van was spotless and kept at a comfortable temperature for everyone. I’ve taken several tours in Charleston, and this was the first time I was brought to areas I had never seen before. It felt fresh, thoughtful, and genuinely engaging. Highly recommend booking with Chicora Tours.

Nick was fabulous! I’ve been to Charleston several times and it was so nice to get reintroduced to the great city and see all the important sites. The carriages are limited in exactly where they can go.
