Guide #63035
I was 14 years old the first time I visited Charleston and from that moment on I was in love with this historic city. I was lucky to move here with my family in 2009. Charleston is a city that touches all of your senses - from putting your hand on a 100-year-old piece of iron work, to peeking through a gate and seeing an amazing garden, to the smell of pluff mud (this is an acquired scent) or the hint of the aroma of the Confederate Jasmine, to finding a pottery shard on the streets and wondering what story it holds. With 350 years of history there is so much to explore. I love to share these intricate stories, so my tours focus on the different threads of Charleston's history; American Revolution, Charleston Renaissance, Ironworks and Women's history to mention a few. As Dubose Heyward wrote "They tell me she is beautiful, my City, That she is colorful and quaint, alone. Among the cities. But I, I who have known, Her tenderness, her courage, and her pity, Have felt her forces mold me, mind, and bone, Life after life, up from her first beginning. How can I think of her in wood and stone! I would love to share her story with you.

Outstanding in every way. In a walking tour, she told us the institution of slavery in Charleston, the history of the Grimke family, and their roles in its demise. We learned of their courage in standing up to societal norms, and saw the places that framed their live.
This was one of the best tours I have ever experienced. The guide was deeply knowledgeable and she brought the issues of slavery and women’s rights to life with incredible details and little known stories about these amazing sisters. You can’t go wrong with this guide!

Lee Ann lead us on two tours of historic Charleston: Revolutionary War and Civil War. Both tours were outstanding. We saw all of historic downtown Charleston, and Lee Ann did an amazing job telling the history in a fun and personal way. I highly recommend her Charleston tours.

This tour was outstanding. I have been on numerous tours of Charleston but wanted to share one with a best friend. She and I both agree that Lee Ann was a fabulous guide. She was knowledgable, excellent at explaining things and lots of fun. I look forward to taking another of her tours in the future.
