Enjoyable tour, cool dungeon

We enjoyed it and loved the knowledge our guide had. He was very informative. At times however it was hard to hear him and understand him. We did not have any encounters with the sprits or paranormal, but we still enjoyed everything. But he did an excellent job and his knowledge was impeccable.

An evening of fun!

What a great tour! George was a 5-star guide! As a native Charlestonian, history is a part of my being. George added to that, with a bit of fancy just for fun with an open and caring delivery.
