Philadelphia Alley, also known as Duelers Alley, is one of the most intriguing locations in all of Charleston.

Fun tour around downtown.
The tour was great, our tour guide Zoe was super friendly and outgoing. You could tell she loves what she does. She had great stories and answered a bunch of questions. Dungeon was smaller than expected but it was neat to see.
