Amazing experience with Ronnie. We spent the whole day together and the tour gave us a in depth view into Charleston's Jewish history. What a beautiful city and strong community. The snacks in the car was above the top bonus!





Historia de Charleston. Alma judía. Charleston fue el hogar de la comunidad judía más grande de los EE. UU. hasta la década de 1820, ¡superando incluso a Nueva York! Este recorrido privado combina lugares emblemáticos con joyas ocultas, entrelazando la herencia judía con la historia más amplia de Charleston. Visitaremos sitios famosos y a menudo pasados por alto, incluido la “Pequeña Jerusalén” y dos de las sinagogas más antiguas de Estados Unidos: una, la más antigua en uso continuo y cuna del judaísmo reformista; la otra, la congregación ashkenazí ortodoxa activa más antigua del país. También verá la primera farmacia propiedad de judíos en Estados Unidos, un burdel alguna vez dirigido por una mujer judía y hogares y espacios cívicos vinculados a comerciantes, líderes y reformadores. En el camino, honramos las contribuciones de los afroamericanos y reflexionamos sobre la participación judía en la economía esclavista de Charleston y la Guerra Civil. Cada recorrido es privado, sin prisas y cuidadosamente organizado, con refrigerios y narraciones que hacen que la experiencia sea significativa y memorable.

Our Jewish Tour of Charleston with Ronnie was amazing. Ronnie is knowledgable and presents the history in an approachable and lovely way. We enjoyed our time in Charleston!
I had such a great experience on this tour! Ronnie was fantastic! He was super knowledgeable, friendly, and made the history really interesting without it ever feeling like a lecture. I learned so much about Charleston’s Jewish history and loved hearing all the stories along the way.
Ronnie was very knowledgeable about the Jewish history in Charleston and their impact on Charleston’s economic growth. He also talked about the relationship between the Jewish Community Jewish and the Black Community. That is information I had not heard in any other tours in Charleston.
I highly recommend booking a Charleston Jewish Tour! Ronnie is an incredible tour guide and clearly loves what he does. My mom and I visited Charleston and found that this was our favorite activity of the whole trip. It's so nice learning about Jewish history in new cities and we left with more information that we could have imagined. The entire experience was wonderful - no regrets! Thanks Ronnie!
Ronnie did an amazing job putting together an informative and fun tour for my mom and her two sisters. All three women are in their 80s so some modifications were necessary to accommodate them and the rainy weather. Nonetheless, they all came back absolutely thrilled with the tour. They said Ronnie was extremely knowledgeable and made sure that they saw many interesting sites and learned quite a bit in the process. They thoroughly enjoyed the day and would highly recommend this tour to others.
Informative and enjoyable. Pleasant and leisurely paced would recommend for future tours. That’s all.
Our friends and we had a wonderful time on the tour. Ronnie is very knowledgeable about the Jewish history in Charleston - he had to field many questions from us and always had the information.
You don't have to be Jewish to enjoy this great tour, which provides fascinating insights into the history of Charleston, going back to colonial times. Ronnie is a terrific guide, with a deep knowledge of the history of the city and the important role its Jewish community played in its growth. He points out important architectural and historical sites you might not see on other tours, like the home of Charleston's most famous madam, Bertha Hyman, who cared for many of Charleston’s poorest residents. Highly recommended.
WOW! Just came back from visiting Charleston and the highlight of our visit was the Jewish Tour. My wife and I loved Ronnie.
