We absolutely loved our tour of Beaufort! This is our second vacation to the area (Harbor Island) and it was definitely a highlight of both trips combined. I apologize for not remembering the name of our tour guide, but she was amazing and very easy to talk to. We could tell that she not only loved history, but Beaufort especially. It is a great way to learn about the history of the town and area and we highly recommend it!

A lot of information and knowledge shared by our guide was outstanding. It would be nice to stop and get out at some point, such as cemetery to look around and take pictures. Rules about stopping should change. Great overall experience and highly recommended!
