5.00Gia was super fun and so knowledgeable about Charleston history. We went to two great spots for drinks and she had lots of good recommendations. If you’re interested in the history of the important women of Charleston and you enjoy good wine and good company Gia is the tour guide for you!!
Behind every woman there’s a man taking credit for her hard work

5.00Gia was a gem! She’s such an intellectual historian. Her passion for historical women shows clearly in this tour. The wine is a plus but it’s not even needed because you don’t want the booze to make you forget the important facts of these forgotten women. It was empowering as a woman traveling solo to hear how bad ass these women were. Thank you Gia for sharing your knowledge
Gia is the best!
