Excellent tour of the French quarter in Charleston. Visited 4 different restaurants for samples of low country food. Delicious. Knowledgeable tour guide. Bonus was the Blue Angels flying over the city!

Our guide was delightful, knowledgeable and extremely attentive to each of our needs. The restaurants chosen were all wonderful. In fact we went back to one for a late bite that evening! Our tour mates were very pleasant and the group developed a good chemistry while learning all about Charleston and sampling some delicious food. I would highly recommend this company for their staff, tour stop choices and the efficient way they managed the entire process. The broad amount of knowledge we gained about the city during the tour was a huge plus and absolutely made it the best food tour we've ever taken.
