Fort Sumter is a "must see". Nice ride put to the site, great history, beautiful views, get a memorial from the gift shop. Love the feeling & history while there.

This is a good source of early American history. Park Rangers are good guides and teachers. We took first boat over in morning to fort so we observed and could participate in flag raising.

Highly recommend this tour for all ages! The ruins are amazing and there's so much history to learn about! The rangers were so friendly and knowledgeable. The tour price was affordable compared to other national monuments we've gone to and only takes about 2.5 hours!

Informative tour about beginning of civil war. One hour time allowed at the fort is not quite enough time absorb all the details. Park guides well informed.
