Tour was awesome! Heather gave a great history lesson of Beaufort including historical homes and the national cemetery. Roberta greeted us and was very pleasant and courteous to our entire family. I would recommend your tour's to anyone visiting Beaufort.

Kelly was very thorough and knew her history of the area well. We enjoyed the tour and learned so much about many things we didn’t know. I highly recommend this tour. My only wish was there was more time to take photos. The only stop was the cemetery

We had so much fun! Being in a golf cart was such a great way to tour around Beaufort. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable with a great sense of humor. The houses were saw were breathtaking and we loved the whole thing! Two enthusiastic thumbs up!
