Great experience - Leanne was a great guide and got to see so many places that I wouldn't have been able to visit. She was super organized and we knew exactly what was happening each visit

Tour description says it all — Get out of town. - We got to see many things outside the city without having the hassle of me driving to them. Leann has a great personality and a comfy van. Very informative.

Five Stars! The Best Charleston Tour! - My wife & I took this tour in Apr '24. Leanne was always keeping us "in the loop" getting ready for the tour. Her van was very nice. She had "goodie" bags with snacks & water available for us which was wonderful touch. The tour was all over the Charleston area. We saw and heard stories about the history and current tidbits of info. Her good friend Jay, was driving and as a realtor, he provided much insight on buildings, housing costs, and additional historical info about the area. Leanne had a mic on so we could all hear her (there were 9 of us on the tour) and made sure we could all hear, ask questions, etc. We had time for restroom breaks and to stretch our legs. Overall, the day flew by and we all agreed this was one of our best tours. I had read rave reviews about Leanne from previous tour customers and they are spot on. Leanne does a great job and is the BEST! (Hint: take this tour!)

Highest recommendation great value - We (myself, my wife and my mother) made a reservation with Leanne just a few days before for the Complete Charleston Tour and we absolutely give her our highest recommendation. She is so professional nice knowledgeable and accommodating. This tour is an amazing way to see 12 sites starting inside but most are in the low country outside of the city proper. First, Leanne is a wonderful guide. Check out her website where she has the complete itinerary. I cant image trying to see all this on our own. The tour is a great value and the perfect way to make the most of your time in Charleston and to see the important sites. The sites were beautiful and the history amazing. The van is first class. The lunch stop food was a real highlight. A gem of a local eatery. This tour can’t be beat! Thanks so much!
