A Must-Do Charleston Tour! - Our Charleston tour was absolutely outstanding thanks to Dana. She was incredibly knowledgeable and brought the city to life with fascinating history, fun trivia, and stories you won’t find in a guidebook. What really set her apart was how she shared hidden gems and secret spots that you’d never discover on your own. It felt like getting a local’s insider tour rather than a generic experience. Dana was engaging, warm, and clearly passionate about Charleston, which made the whole tour even more enjoyable. On top of that, her dinner recommendation was phenomenal; one of the best meals we had on the trip! If you’re visiting Charleston, I can’t recommend Experience Moore Tours highly enough. This tour was a highlight of our visit.

For kids of all ages - Wally (and Dana, of course!) brought history to life for my six year old and me. Fun, informative, and memorable for both of us. We already can’t wait for our next tour!
