Fun factor everyone

We had a great time discovering a side of CHS we had never seen before. Jessica was a wonderful guide and we really appreciated that the tour (Ghosts & Graveyards) was dog friendly. Even our teenagers enjoyed themselves.

Janine was such an amazing tour guide for the walking ghost and gravestone tour! I learned so much history about Charleston. I really loved the fact there were opportunities to pick her brain about the area and ask questions. The way she explained the stories really made them come alive! Highly recommend!

Interesting facts about the city and different areas where ghosts/spirits have been spotted. I was not lucky enough to catch a glimpse, but the stories were very interesting.

Great Tour

Drew was great! He had a great way of telling the stories. The cicada were paid actors and stopping chirping at the most dramatic moments. I am waiting to look at my pictures to see what we can see.
