Ann is the best of the best!

5.00My partner and I were visiting Charleston for a wedding so we didn’t have much time. My partner has a hearing problem and I knew he would not do well on a walking tour with a large crowd. Ann’s tour was perfect it was the 3 of us for three hours. The amount of knowledge and over all information about Charleston was PERFECT! ANN made us feel like we all knew each other for ever. Even before meeting for the tour Ann and I were corresponding and she graciously helped me plan our trip with wonderful insight and suggestions. Ann is a Charleston native and loves her city, and it shows! If you want to see Charleston and learn its history Ann is the one for the job. She also had many amusing antidotes that she shared as well. This tour was wonderful and Ann was a pleasure to be with.
A Personal and Intimate Tour of Charleston

5.00Ann's tour was a complete delight - she is a lifelong resident of Charleston and her intimate and extensive knowledge of its history, architecture, and people (past & present) is vast and endlessly interesting. I highly recommend doing a private tour to get the most out of the experience. We've had guides all over the world and she is one of the best!
Wonderful morning walking with Ann!

5.00My friend and I had never been to Charleston and had 3 1/2 days to really get the feel of the city. Based on other reviews, we booked a Thursday morning walking tour with Ann. Even before we got there, Ann was a wealth of helpful information, from restaurant recommendations to other activities to explore. Ann is truly a southern gem. She is knowledgeable and you can tell how she much she loves "her" city. As a bonus, we bumped into a friend of hers, who opened her fabulous home for us to see. We would 100% recommend spending a few hours with Ann!!
Ann is a great Charleston Walking Tour Guide

5.00Ann was an amazing tour guide for our family in Charleston this June. She is very knowledgeable about everything about the city and the history. If you are traveling to Charleston and need a tour guide I would highly recommend her!
Delightful tour of a beautiful city

5.00My wife and I had an absolutely delightful private walking tour of Charleston with Ann this week. She is a life-long resident of Charleston with deep history in the area. So in addition to knowing the history and who did what when and where, she literally has known many of the players of the recent history of the city. We didn't just focus on names and dates, but talked about the gardens and what was grown and blooming. We talked about the characters who inhabit the town. We talked about the architecture and why things are how they are. I have friends coming to town later this summer and we are already talking about scheduling a private tour with them as well. The private tour is so much better than going in a big group. It's definitely worth the investment.
Wonderful walking tour of Charleston

5.00Ann is an excellent tour guide. We went on a two-hour walking tour through beautiful lower Charleston (south of Broad). Ann led us through gorgeous neighborhoods and showed us beautiful homes and churches, while telling us the very interesting history of Charleston's 350 years since its establishment. She is like a walking encyclopedia of the city. She is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and very pleasant to work with. You can tell she loves what she does. Ann helped us appreciate the rich history and beauty of Charleston. Wonderful!

5.00Outstanding tour! Ann’s deep knowledge and love for her hometown truly shine through. We saw the major sites but also got to explore some beautiful gardens and alleys that we surely wouldn’t have otherwise found. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Charleston!
