The very best tour guide - We were in the best hands with Dave, a seasoned guide full of facts that he spun into stories. A former teacher, he was adept at managing the group and keeping everyone entertained as he shared the history of Charleston. My husband with some hearing impairment, appreciated his booming voice. I think he may have been the best guide we’ve ever had in our many years of traveling. Great Job, Dave!!

Wonderful Charleston walking tour - This was my first time in Charleston and I thoroughly enjoyed this walking tour of the city. Linda, our tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable and a font of information. Her knowledge of Charleston history is extensive and she was able to answer any questions. All in all it was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend the Bulldog walking tour of Charleston!
