This tour has been highly rated, with good reason, but we did not visit the Gullah community, which disappointed us. The tour operator, Alphonso Brown, was very engaging and lots of fun to be with!

We nearly missed this tour as our hotel told us to wait across the street from the Visitors Centre. After waiting for 20 minutes I thought I had better find out what was going on.

Without a doubt, this was one of the highlights of our Savannah/Charleston trip. Alphonso Brown's narrative was informative, entertaining and infectious (in that he had everyone on his coach laughing throughout the 2 hour trip).

I thoroughly enjoyed this tour! I felt like I learned things that I couldn't gather from a history book. Mr. Brown was very informative and a great tour guide. I was able to go on a great day, and I was able to get some nice photos. If I'm ever in the area again, I would return.

They gave a great tour! It was raining the day we were in town - so it was nice to have a "closed/covered" bus to ride in to see the historic downtown...

My buddy knew that I would have no problem finding houses to see and carriage rides, so his advice was to seek out this Gullah tour. It's been a highlight. Make sure to book in advance because it's owner run so they only have 1 bus, and we got on by standby.
