    Jerry D.

    This tour is given by world renowned Alphonso Brown. Mr. Brown, who owns and conducts Gullah Tours, is a licensed tour guide for the city of Charleston. He is the author of A Gullah to Guide Charleston, a best-selling book from The History Press. He teaches classes on the Gullah language and Charleston's black history. If you believe Charleston's retreat to a good era. This does not have a tour for you. The true history and meaning of slavery is the Gullah culture, a relic that still exists in the city. For those who are interested in the remnants of the past; this is a trip for you. For those with an open mind and an interest in history, this is for you. And when you leave, you won't see Charleston in the same way. Brown is very fluent on his tour an didn't miss a beat. Funny, witty and full of all content knowledge. He is a walking history book of Charleston. My favorite part of the tour was visiting the Philip Simmons house, which remains to this day, and the workshop where all the magic happens. He had a good relationship with Mr. Simmons! Alfonso lets you hear and feel the passion of Charleston.

    Mr. Brown was a joy. I learned a ton I didn't know, particularly about iron works in the city. I highly recommend.
