The tour was very informative and provided a great history lesson of the area. The tour guides were great and very knowledgeable and friendly. I just wish we could have gotten out of the bus to take better pictures. The overgrown foliage made it very difficult to view the homes.
Very interesting tour; so much to learn about the history of this area. Our guide made the trip interesting and fun!
If you want quiet and how are you relaxation? Perfect not really a whole lot to do around the area besides Beaufort
Very informative and comprehensive. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Great with the kids who were misbehaving.
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. A great overview of this charming, historic town filled with interesting tidbits. Highly recommend this tour. You can't beat the minibus tour on a hot humid day.
Tanya, our guide for the tour, really made history come alive!! Her knowledge about the history of Beaufort was riveting for me and my family. She told us facts we have never heard of in a way that held us captive for the entire hour and a half. I believe the guide makes the experience and Tanya is a real gem!!
Very informative tour. Guide was knowledgeable.
Nice air conditioned ride. So much history to learn about. Loved the angel oak trees, spanish moss, and our narrator was very knowledgeable. Seen the bridge Tom Hanks was running on when he filmed Forrest Gump.
Tour was great! The Guide was very well informed and had some stories to tell. Learned a lot about Beaufort history and the people.
Heather was a great tour guide. During our 2-hour air conditioned mini bus ride, she shared a very detailed history of Beaufort in a visual and entertaining way. She was very knowledgeable about the history and a great story teller. I recommend the tour!
