Overall we had a good time and there were definitely laughs, although I did not feel like I learned very much about Charlotte. For example, we drove by the Queen Charlotte statue but didn't learn about why the city is named after her. We drove through NoDa but didn't even hear why it's called that/what it's short for. Our guide was very interactive with the group on the bus and engaging with us and telling some jokes, but I would have loved for there to have been more incorporation of the Charlotte-specific information or unique fun facts and tidbits beyond "this is a great place for a view, some of these homes were on HGTV, etc."

We finally got our chance through a Templeton Tours trip organized with Alliance Bible Fellowship. Templeton Tours provided an incredible, fabulous, step-by-step retracing of our Lord's ministry. Their tour was well organized, thoughtful, and worth every cent. Our guide and bus driver were Christians who offered a deep base of knowledge, expertise and a spiritual element. Combined with the leadership of our church pastor and his wife, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Templeton, for a trip forever imprinted on our hearts! ~Ernie and Dora Hiers

I highly recommend visiting!! The site is a shell of a once bustling mill town. We were given a…read morehistory of the town, founders and insight into what life was like in the early 1900s by our guide Donovan. He was wonderfully knowledgable and made the little town come to life with his descriptions. The owner, Adam, also gave us great information as we peppered him with questions about the property. We learned about the prior residents (and met a former resident, Joe, who happened to meander by for some tea) and about plans to renovate the area. Sadly many of the buildings suffer from vandalism, but there is still enough to tour and learn here. We were allowed to self-explore after Donovan's guide and spend as much time as we wanted. I love that it was chosen for the Hunger Games film, but there is so much more history than just a location site still lingering here. Our hope is that Henry River Village continues to be preserved for the history and education it truly deserves. It was a wonderful experience and we plan to come back for some movie nights and future events.

Greenville History Tours is the main tour operator in the city of Greenville, offering a variety of…read moreculinary and history tours. As I wanted to get out of the city and see the surrounding area, I opted to go with their 5-hour Carolina Countryside tour, which is a culinary tour offered once a week. The tour includes several stops including the historic Pointsett Bridge, the base of Table Rock Mountain, a tea farm, and 2 food stops at the Cherokee Country Club and Aunt Sue's Country Corner. The first stop was at Core 450 restaurant at Cherokee Valley Country Club. We were able to sample some absolutely delicious food with beautiful views of the golf course. Their French toast was some of the best I've ever had, and chicken items were also of very high quality. The second main stop was a tea farm at Table Rock Tea Company. The owner was super enthusiastic in showing us around the tea farm, but the tour did seem to drag on for those that weren't overly interested in the tea process. The sweet tea samples were refreshing on a very hot and sunny day. The final stop was a buffet style meal at Aunt Sue's Country Corner. Personally, I thought the food quality here was pretty poor and much preferred the food at our first stop. I know this was a food tour, but felt it could have done without the final stop, and could have been more balanced if it explored the mountain or lakes of the area more, with just the country club food stop and perhaps stops for coffee/baked goods and/or ice cream along the way. Overall, this tour was a great introduction to the area, and the food tour parts of it definitely filled guests up. I would suggest that this tour be tweaked to be a nature and countryside tour with less emphasis on food and a bit more exploration. The tour operator/owner, John Nolan was an absolute delight offering great narration and audiovisuals to help us gain a better understanding of the history of the area. I wouldn't hesitate to take another tour with Greenville History Tours, and would recommend their tours to any visiting the Greenville area.
