Born and raised here in Charleston, South Carolina, it is my pleasure to share this wonderful city with our many guests! As a lifelong resident, I decided nine years ago to leave the commercial real estate business for this new venture, as a tour guide for one of the most historic cities in America, Charleston. As the youngest of five boys I am very familiar to many people in this charming city, which become obvious as we walk around, but the numbers of people who greet me by name! Come for a visit and Let's Walk! All my tours can be customized upon request Born and raised in Charleston, I am a lifelong resident! My professional life spawned nearly four decades in the commercial real estate industry right here in Charleston. 9 years ago I pursued my interest in becoming a tour guide and showing off my beautiful, historic home town. I am certified and licensed as a tour guide by the City of Charleston, which means I passed a rigorous exam as well as keeping current with continuing education required by the city to remain certified.

As North Americas only English Walled City( no longer walled) we will explore where those walls were and inside as well. As one of the four wealthiest cities in Colonial America our rich history is evident from the beautiful Architecture that goes back to colonial/pre- revolutionary war style with historic house museums, churches and public buildings that were relevant then and now! Born in raised in Charleston you will be walking with a native who you will soon discover seems to know many of the people we pass on the street, and they know me! This place is special to me and I enjoy the opportunity to share her with folks who have come to walk in the steps of history! I've been lucky to have worked and played here and honestly continue to discover new and interesting daily! As a licensed and certified tour guide for the City of Charleston, I went through the process of studying for and passing a rigorous tour guide exam, written and oral! And maintain mandatory continuing education! Let's Walk!!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our history walking tour with Steve. We learned so much and it was a great addition to our holiday trip. And as a native of Charleston, he knows everyone! Highlight was seeing the portraits of GW and Calhoun and the stories behind them. I’m glad we didn’t miss that.
We had a great time on our tour with Steve. He was interesting, informative, and very pleasant to be around. We highly recommend him!
Our guide Steve did a great job of providing us with the history of the area. He was very welcoming, friendly and made the tour interesting for the adults, while providing fun facts to keep my 12 year old entertained. We would definitely recommend him for anyone looking to learn more about the area!
My family (2 adults, 2 teens) had a wonderful time exploring Charleston with Steve. It was our first visit to this beautiful city, and our tour was the perfect way to get oriented, learn more about the history of Charleston, and see many hidden gems that we wouldn't have come across on our own. Steve is a lifetime resident of the city, and his passion for Charleston is contagious. I highly recommend this tour!
Steve provided an interesting tour, lots of facts and a little humor along the way. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a personal tour of Charleston.
