Historic Charleston Walking & Storytelling Tour

Description

This tour is an exploration of Charleston that highlights the women and men who helped found Charleston and the United States.

Did you know, without the pirates and patriots of Charleston, the United States may not exist today?

We start our experience in front of the Old Exchange and Provost Dungeon, one of Charleston’s oldest and most historical buildings. Learn about George Washington’s visit in 1791, and the dungeon’s prisoners who met their fate.
