5.00We did the Ultimate Southern City Charm Golf Cart tour and it helped us fall in love with Charlotte. Kayla, our tour guide is AMAZING. She is patient and kind plus so knowledgeable about her home town. She really shows her love for the city and makes you fall in love with it. Pick up was easy and you get a full grasp of this beautiful city. I recommend this tour if you want to get a real feel for the beauty of Charlotte.
Fun driver and tour...
