Charleston On Foot, aka Charleston Footprints, is now offering morning and afternoon tours of historic Charleston. Featuring a wonderful array of architecture, gardens, ironwork, historic landmarks, legends, and cultural heritage,the tour is hosted by seventh-generation Charlestonian Michael Trouche and begins at 10:30 am and 2:30 pm from 108 Meeting Street, at the Historic Charleston Foundation Gift Shop, lasting approximately two hours. Reservations are required, by contacting Michael at 843-478-4718 or e-mail at: tours@charlestonfootprints.com
Michael personalizes each tour with events, characters, dialects and legends from his own Charleston experience, and even has a "test" question at the end for the inquisitive mind. One favorite is to guess why many Charleston "single" houses feature very noticeable odd exterior windows that do not match other windows across each floor.
