| Very well presented with historical facts. Guide could have spoken just a little slower and provided information as the group walked from one point of interest to the next. Overall a good tour. |

| My wife and I enjoy history and we are not convinced that the historical accuracy of this tour was "spot-on." However, with that disclaimer, we enjoyed ourselves and found our guide to be informed, an excellent story teller and willing to accomodate our questions. There was likely some historical basis for the stories and our guide made the stories very plausible and definitely very entertaining. We had a good time. This walk compares favorably with other ghost tours and the like from other Southern cities where we have enjoyed this type of evening entertainment. Keep up the good work! |

| The Darkside of Charleston is certainly another way of looking at the Holy City. Our showed us another side of Charleston -- it is not a ghost tour but a view of the unsavory side of life. |

| When we met for the tour, the guide warned us that he would frighten us with the stories he was going to tell. In fact, he said a woman had broke down into tears and, at this point, said if we didn't want to continue, we could ask for a refund. I think the woman broke down in tears from total boredom. Maybe, it was just the guide. I didn't think he could tell a good story. Initially, my group was up in front and we fell further and further behind in the group as the tour went on. At one point, my boyfriend just wanted to ditch the whole thing. I thought something better was coming and we stuck with the tour.
I also thought it was odd that he didn't return us to where we started. Instead, just told us where we were located in conjunction with the Open Market and the tour was over.
We were in Charleston for a very short time and enjoyed many of the other tours. This was a big disappointment. |

| I had great expectations for this tour - but they didn't pan out. It was R rated (as advertised) so it wouldn't be appropriate for young children. But more than that, it was rather depressing. I guess I had expected it to be a little more light hearted, but there was no light heartedness. Also, although our guide was knowledgeble, he had a very unusual accent that made him very difficult to understand - and he tended to speak somewhat quietly. |

| I ENJOYED THIS TOUR VERY MUCH AND THE GUIDE OBVIOUSLY HAD A TRUE INTEREST IN THE HISTORY OF CHARLESTON AND REALLY WANTED EVERBODY TO GET WHAT THEY WANTED FROM THE TOUR. HE IS A REAL ASSET AS A TOUR GUIDE. |
