Highlights
History comes alive on this combo tour. The tapestry of the city history is presented in a passionate, well rounded way. We believe history is history, the good, the bad and the ugly of it. After this tour, you will never think of Charleston the same way again. When you are done touring the house, you will stroll, at your leisure, through the oak canopied Wragg Mall on your short walk back to the Charleston Visitors Center. The tour is expected to last approximately 3 hours in total.

Itinerary
Wander through the city on this bus tour for 1 and a half hour.
This preserved home, built in 1820, invites you to walk through a veil of time to explore Charleston in her antebellum days. The house, grounds and dependencies are all included in this tour. One of the more poignant parts of the tour is walking up the well worn steps from the kitchen to the slave quarters. Here, their story seems to come alive.

About Charleston
Charleston is a South Carolina port city of pastel row houses, cobbled lanes, church steeples, Gullah culture and Lowcountry cooking.
Charleston was settled in 1670 and grew on a peninsula between the Ashley and Cooper rivers, and it is one of the best-preserved colonial-era cities in the United States. Rainbow Row, thirteen pastel Georgian houses on East Bay Street, is the best-known sight. The Battery, a seafront promenade with old cannon and oak-shaded White Point Garden, looks out to Fort Sumter, where the first shots of the Civil War were fired in 1861. The city is nicknamed the Holy City for its many church steeples.
