3.00It seemed as every sentence included slavery or slaves. I was expecting more of a fun tour not expecting a high school history class. You could have easily had in earbuds and heard the entire tour recorded. We almost fell asleep a few times. We did see some beautiful homes, enjoyed seeing the Citadel it was the reason I chose this tour.
