Charleston: Off The Beaten Path
4.8

Charleston

Peace and quiet is what makes this tour special. We walk the streets in a less traveled part of the historic district passing beautiful gardens, stately homes, and visit the inside of two breathtaking churches. This is a part of the city missed by the average guest, and one that you surely wouldn’t want to miss yourself.

Off the beaten path is the perfect title. - Evans was a fantastic guide. He was very knowledgeable and entertaining as well. Very personable person. I enjoyed learning about the history and facts about the various stops on the tour. Evans really know a lot about the architecture, fauna, and history about the various houses and churches on the tour. I would recommend this tour to anyone going to Charleston.

Seeing Charleston through another's eyes - I've lived in Charleston for 4 years and walked around downtown many times but, with all I learned on this tour, walking around downtown will now be a richer experience. Evans provided a wealth of information that made the streets of Charleston come alive. His love for Charleston was evident in the stories he told and the pride he took in the city. You'll amazed at all you learn!

An exceptionally enjoyable tour. - Charleston is a beautiful city and we were treated to some of its most impressive spots. Our guide Evans selected stops that included historical homes not usually seen on other tours. These “off the beaten track” spots were some of the most historically important and beautiful sites in Charleston. Thank you for an informative and enjoyable tour.

Friendly neighborhood walk - Evans was highly knowledgable and very personable. He know almost everything there is to know about the people, history, architecture, flora and fauna of Charleston. This tour felt more like a friendly neighborhood walk with friends than a formal tour. Would recommend!
