Excellent introduction to Beaufort - Very well done. I had no idea that Beaufort had such an elaborate history. I did know that a number of movies were filmed here at least in part but there are more than I thought. Guide Laura was excellent in all regards and she drove the comfortable golf cart skillfully. The tour cost USD 38 per person and lasted one hour.

Fun, Engaging Tour for Families & Educational! - This golf cart tour was a wonderful mix of storytelling, hearing historical facts, learning about the culture & rich history of the south, and most, especially seeing the beautiful scenery, low country views of the water & marsh and old homes of historical Beaufort, South Carolina. I was worried that our teen son might be bored, but the stories were so interesting and the pace was so engaging that he loved it. It just could not have been a better tour or experience for all of us. When we let my husband said, “I wasn’t so sure about this when you booked it. I was surprised how great it was. I’m so glad we did this.” We highly recommend this tour.
