The History and Holiday walking tour was excellent. Our guide Lisa, made the local history fun and interesting by infusing local customs of the day into her explanations so we felt we were actually experiencing the holidays in Charleston 150 years ago. Her knowledge of the area was impressive, and she delivered her information with just enough humor without being cheesy. The pace of the tour was perfect for us in terms of being able to see everything without being rushed. I would recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes and bringing water to drink. We felt the value for this 2 hour tour was very good.
