Adam's Tour Rocks! - Adam is awesome! He really made our first visit to Charleston not only enjoyable but so informative as well. Do this your very first day. He is a wealth of knowledge with a great sense of humor and his stories were beyond entertaining. Some of the larger tours seem like factory run events. Adam's groups are smaller and therefore more personal. You will not be disappointed!
