The most exceptional walking tour combined with a 3-course meal which was all lead by the Chef Forrest himself. Stunning day, but just the love the Chef has for the history of the city of Charleston and food was beyond amazing experience.

A must-do for Charleston
Simply fantastic. Eric's depth of knowledge is unmatched. He brings to life the political, economic, and social forces that shaped Charleston, from its colonial founding through the American Revolution, the Civil War, and the city's historic preservation movement. This tour is a feast for history lovers, but Eric's passion and charisma make it special even for casual visitors. Highly recommended!

Consider where you’re going to sit in the ferry.
In hot weather if you choose to sit upstairs in the air conditioning you will not be able to hear the narrator. This was very disappointing. We missed a lot.

The tour is small enough for questions and comments. You walk in a group to several locations (churches and graveyards) at night. Our guide was friendly and had tons of great stories about history and ghosts.
