        Great small group tour! - Kay was a wonderful tour guide who kept us engaged, entertained, and learning the entire time! She was responsive to questions, and wanted to know what each of us wanted to get out of the tour. Kay knows EVERYONE, and provided little tidbits about day to day life in Charleston, as well. We even bumped into her at Boone Plantation the next day, and she made a point of saying hello and pointing us in the direction of can’t miss things to see and do there. She went above and beyond!!

        Best walking tour of Charleston! - Kay Abrams was a fabulous guide to our tour of Charleston.  She was extremely knowledgeable of the history of the city, its buildings, and its people.  She loves the city and put in its best light.  There wasn’t a question she couldn’t answer and seemed to everyone along the tour.  Highlight of our trip.

        Can’t wait for my next tour! - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’ve had the pleasure of joining Kay’s tours a few times, and each one has been an absolute delight. Each time, I walk away having learned something new and with a deeper appreciation for Charleston. Kay has a remarkable gift for bringing the city’s history and culture to life—she’s energetic, knowledgeable, and engaging in a way that makes her stories stay with you long after the tour ends.
I’m sure you’ll leave fascinated by what you learned just as I did…and with a genuine sense of how Charleston’s history has shaped this beautiful city.

        A Tour That Holds Your Attention Completely - Kay is extremely knowledgeable. Her presentation is sophisticated, as she layers entertaining historical vignettes with deep historical context. She does not simply list facts but connects them into a bigger picture, which provides a better sense of what the time period was like. She has many visual aids on hand—photos and maps carried in her bag—that she uses to aid in explanation and add emphasis and context.
This overall strategy is very effective, with impeccable pacing, clear milestones, and thoughtful emphasis. The tour design and route can be adapted based on feedback from the group about their particular interests. The tour had a firm hold on our attention throughout, and we totally lost track of time. The route was meticulously planned for participant comfort; Kay made sure we almost always stayed out of the sun, especially when we stopped at landmark sites.
Kay projects a remarkable personality that fits with the tour's content and the old city atmosphere. Her humor is elegant, nuanced, and non-intrusive. Her manner of carrying herself subtly aligns with the historical characters from her stories. She fits the role of a tour guide seemingly effortlessly and organically on many levels, as both a master planner and a presenter with a matching personality.

        The tour is a nice way to... - The tour is a nice way to get a history of the city: war, art, food, vernacular, etc. Kay was our guide. She was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. She was flexible to our needs given that we visited a site on the planned tour already. We recommend Kay if you are visiting Charleston.

        Amazing Experience - My wife and I had the pleasure of having Kay as our tour guide. She was very nice, and was very knowledgeable about Charleston’s history, architecture and culture. She was very patient, and answered all of our questions. She even knew some of the neighbors in some of the homes that we passed. If you’re interested in a walking tour, we highly recommend booking with Kay. She is the Queen of tour guides.
