Tour guide for private tour texted us an hour before the tour start time saying he was stuck in traffic. We offered to start later even an hour late and he still declined. He pawned us off on another guide and we are now stuck going in the morning prior to our Mother’s Day brunch. Not at all ideal or what we wanted.

Our tour of historic Charleston with Tim was wonderful. I’m sure I’ll never remember everything he shared with us but I have a deeper understanding of the history that formed Charleston. His first comments were what did we want to see. He is very well informed and shares enough that we understood what happened then and how that effected today. I would highly recommend Tim as your tour guide.

Tim was a very professional, engaging and knowledgeable guide for our private walking tour of the town. He was waiting for us on time and immediately made us feel welcome and comfortable. His knowledge of the area and history was fantastic along with more general USA history for people from England like us. He asked us what we were interested in to Taylor the walk to us which was great. He has a good clear speaking voice so we didn’t miss anything. Tim dropped the odd good ‘bad’ joke too so was not dry. At the end he gave us some good tips for restaurants and other trips. We had a great time, learnt a lot and the 2 hours went quickly. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Charleston.
