AWESOME!!!
Dawn_C, Apr 2024
Alex was an AWESOME guide!!!!! He catering his stories to his audience and was very entertaining. Would definitely recommend this tour.
Great bars and stories!
Natalia_P, Apr 2024
We had such a fun time on this tour with Abby!! Abby was super gracious even though a few members of our party were a little late. She told us some really interesting stories about historical true crime in Charleston, from the 1600s through the 1980s. We also went to some cool bars and learned some Charleston history along the way. Def recommend this tour with her!

The bars that we visited were interesting. The storytelling was lacking. On a side note we only visited 3 bars when 4 bars were advertised. It was over all just an okay experience.

True crimes
Kathleen_M, Apr 2023
The true crime stories. John was an excellent tour guide. We had a bit of a wait in one of the bars.
Money down the drain!
Carrie_A, Mar 2023
Don't waste your money. Our guide, who was dressed extremely casual, spent the entire time talking about himself and his future tour company venture. He did tell 4 crime stories, with no enthusiasm, and minimal details. We were the only guests in the tour which could have been a great opportunity to learn more about the Charleston area, but John was more interested in sharing the details of his permit and business license accomplishments.
Response from Host, Jun 2023
Thank you for your review. We are very sorry to hear that the tour did not live up to your expectations. If you'd like to book a different experience please call 855-999-9026. We'd like to make it right.
A Night to Remember
James_B, Mar 2023
I travel a lot for work and try and do a tour or two in each town. This tour was very fun, entertaining and educational but I think our guide Moth is what made the tour go from good to spectacular. Her story telling along with a great personality that fits in with the theme of the tour is unmatched.
Response from Host, Jun 2023

Our tour guide Ken was very good with information and history about the town and being a history teacher was a great experience with him. Thanks Ken

Crime Show Junkies Dream Tour!
Tony_W, Apr 2022
Ken was the absolute best guide for our group! If you listen to crime podcasts or you're a crime show junkie, this is the tour for you! To say Ken is knowledge about the history of this city and the topics on this tour, is an understatement. His roots are in this city and it was extra special to have someone who could answer so many questions about the city itself along with deeper questions about the stories he shared. The pubs are a nice bonus, definitely places that we as locals would revisit. This tour is going to the top of our list of recommendations for our future incoming visitors! Thank You KEN!!
Response from Host, Apr 2022
We're so thrilled to hear you had such a wonderful time with, Ken! We have the best guides in town! We hope to see you on another tour soon!
