Mike is the tour guide that you want, with a great knowledge of Charleston and its history. He will take you on a slow-paced tour talking about Charleston's beginnings, pointing out unique stories of houses, war history items, and will gladly answer any questions that you might have. My wife and I truly enjoyed this tour and would definitely recommend him.

Fantastic tour
I was so extremely fortunate, and ended up with a private tour with Mike. He was very knowledgeable, kind and friendly and gave me a fascinating and thorough insight into the history, charm and beauty of Charleston. If you are lucky enough to have him as your tour guide you will not be disappointed. Thank you Mike.

The Best Charleston Tour!
Exploring Charleston with this gentleman was nothing short of exceptional. His depth of knowledge is immediately apparent—not only in the way he recounts the city’s layered history, but in how he connects it seamlessly to its architecture, culture, and the subtle details that most visitors would otherwise overlook.
What sets him apart is his refined understanding of Charleston’s architectural heritage—from stately antebellum homes to lesser-known structures that reveal the city’s evolution over centuries.
Beyond history, his insights into Charleston’s cultural fabric are equally impressive. He speaks with familiarity and warmth about longstanding traditions, local customs, and the influential families who have shaped the city’s identity. It’s clear he is not merely an observer, but someone personally connected within these circles, lending an authenticity that is rare to encounter.
Equally noteworthy is his reputation as a discerning restaurant connoisseur. His recommendations are thoughtful and tailored, reflecting both an elevated palate and an insider’s access to some of the city’s most celebrated dining establishments.
In every sense, he offers more than a tour—he curates an experience that is sophisticated, immersive, and unforgettable.

Great Guided Tour
I traveled with my mom and her friend to Charleston for the first time in early October. A friend recommended Mike's tour and we were not disappointed! He gave us many amazing historical facts about the area and brought a personal touch to each of his stories. He had first hand knowledge of several of the local homes and the people that lived in them. Due to the inclement weather, we had to reschedule our original tour. Mike was very accommodating and communicated clearly throughout the process. I would definitely recommend Mike to anyone wanting an interesting, factual tour of Charleston!

Historical and Entertaining
This is our second time touring the city with Mike. The first time was two years ago when we visited the city with friends. Everyone had a great time and was very impressed with his knowledge of historical Charleston. This week we returned to the city with family and Mike’s walking tour was a number one must do for our family. Mike shared many interesting facts about Charleston and did a great job giving us new information since two of us had taken his tour in the past. The tour is about two hours long and is well worth your time. We recommend his tour to all of our friends.

Very informative and entertaining
The sight seeing tour with Mike was good, he has a lot to tell and knows his stuff. Being a member of the historical society he knows everything from brick walls and roof tiles, historici buildings and the people living in it. He has a good sense of humor and last but not least: a great recommendation for a restaurant for that same evening, The Chubby fish of chef James London great choice, worth the waiting in line! Thanks Mike. Greetings from Ruud and Roel.
