Our tour manager, Wesley Glass, gave me a wonderful experience with all his information and organization of 44 people. Every day was a great adventure. I enjoyed each destination and it's hard to pick a favorite. Charleston had the wonderful horse carriage ride and Boone Plantation, Savannah had an informative walking tour and I love River Street, and Jekyll Island was relaxing and I enjoyed the sunset and fire pit with s'mores with new friends.Show more
