Traveler Reviews

Jonathan gave our group a super fun, informative tour of historic downtown Charleston. We were all locals and loved hearing the rich history of our town. I would highly recommend doing this tour even if you’re a local!

What an amazing experience! I’ve been here about 8 years and today realized how little I know about my beautiful, history-rich city. Thank you Jonathan for everything I learned today and making me want to learn more! I highly recommend taking this tour, thank you!

Jonathon is so knowledgeable and passionate about Charleston. This tour was so much fun. We learned a lot while enjoying the company of such a wonderful tour guide. He has a great sense of humor, yet handled the darker, more sensitive history with respect and compassion. We highly recommend JWalk Tours.

Walking tours don’t get better than this! Jonathan is very passionate about the history of Charleston and it really shows in his tour. I’ve learned a lot about the city I love (the good, the bad and the ugly) and have never laughed so much on a tour! While Jonathan has a great sense of humor he was very respectful with the more sensitive information and really shed light on this side of history throughout the tour. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Charleston or locals who want to learn more about their city!

This tour was worth every penny and then some! Do you feel like hearing stories that are funny, powerful and inspiring? Then this is the tour for you. Jon was amazing, smart, kind and entertaining. I can’t wait to come back and do it again
