5.00We had a WONDERFUL tour with Martha a few weeks back. Ended up being a private tour since nobody had signed up that specific evening in Church Hill, which made the experience all that more personable. Having lived in Church Hill for 1+ years now, we knew so little of the history of the area and really appreciated how knowledgeable our guide was about our stomping grounds. Felt very safe throughout, had all of our questions answered, and felt inspired to sign up for another tour real soon! Would recommend 10/10 to anybody else thinking about trying it :)
