Really fun and great value for the price! - This tour highly exceeded my expectations! Emerson was a fantastic tour guide and took us to three awesome bars… Henry’s rooftop,, Griffons, and the Blaine Tiger. . He was extremely well-versed in the history of Charleston and very friendly and conversational. Definitely felt like a friend by the end of the tour! I’m telling you for the price this is the best value you will get here. Do it! Kudos again to Emerson for making it so fun and enjoyable.

Definitely take this tour! - He took us to intriguing bars that I never would have found on my own. Despite being solo (age 75 woman) I had an absolute blast with the other guests!!!

Disappointed - Unfortunately, I have to say that the tour with Emerson was quite disappointing. It wasn't a true craft tour but rather a chat in pubs where you are forced to buy drinks and pay separately. The description mentioned that a drink was included, but that wasn't the case. While Emerson is friendly and approachable, the experience was quite different from my expectations.
There was no craft element, just chatting in pubs like with a friend telling you stories. Moreover, he had assured me that he would refund the fee since I mistakenly booked for two people, and he spontaneously said he would sort it out. However, after two days, nothing has happened, and I am still waiting. He has also stopped responding to my messages on WhatsApp.
Halfway through the tour, I decided to leave because I was getting bored. Overall, it was a disappointing experience that did not meet my expectations.

Disappointed - The tour guide Shea contacted us. I mistakenly thought it started at 5:30. I immediately texted him back that we were on our way. We arrived at the meeting point exactly 10 minutes late. I have done numerous tours thru Viator and have waited at least that long for others. They were supposed to be at the meeting point (it was a bar) for 40 minutes according to the itinerary. We searched. They were not there. Phone and texts were not answered. Very disappointing. I have recommended Viator to others and will not do so any more.
