Charleston's Tastes Through Time -Food, History & Culture Tour
Overview
This fun, fascinating, unique, four course foodie tour blends the perfect pairing of culinary delights with the captivating history of Charleston's cultural blend and the evolution of the region's cuisine. While you dine on Charleston's signature dishes & delicacies of the Lowcountry, your fun, knowledgeable, engaging guide, a lifetime local of the area, will escort you to some of the city's best known restaurants, where you will receive VIP service. Why is Charleston the "Holy City?" Why do we call this area the "Lowcountry?" Most importantly, who are the Gullah Geechee, named an official Creole culture by US Congress in 2006? All of the restaurants are in Charleston's historic Market/French Quarter area, within close proximity, so minimal walking is required. Your guide will be happy to recommend the best local dining & touring experiences to make the most of your stay in Charleston. Our partner restaurants gladly substitute dishes for food restrictions upon request.
