Outstanding Women's History Tour - Women's history needs to be told. The history of women in Charleston is especially revealing, and Leah Middleton has an outstanding tour. Her information is interesting and entertaining as is her delivery. I was walking slower by the end of the tour and she adjusted to my needs but kept the tour relevant. Although I thought I knew a lot about Charleston I still learned a great deal. Thanks Leah for a beautiful afternoon.

The ladies of Charlestons past finally get a voice. - Amazing tour. I took my mom on this tour for her birthday, and we both had a blast.Very insightful with a part of history that is often ignored or left out. Leah is a rockstar, being very knowledgeable and welcoming. She also encourages you to converse and engage with the history, making the experience that much more rich. 10 stars twice if I could.

I took family visiting from out of town and they loved it. I have lived in the Charleston area for 16 years and I too learned so much. I love that the tour focuses on the historical importance of the Women of Charleston. Highly recommend.
