  • Walk & Talk Charleston is a must for both tourists and locals alike! Our History + Historic Gossip tour with Tyler was so fun and informative. It's a great way to see and learn about this beautiful city. Tyler herself is a wealth of knowledge and her passion for all things Charleston and the low country is infectious!

  • I loved the Historic Gossip tour with Tyler so much that I couldn’t wait to take another. Most recently, I did the Skeletons in the Closet ghost tour with Gia…Like Tyler’s, Gia’s story telling is so good you can see it…Spending an evening getting lost in history being brought back to life.

  • Wonderful tour with Sommer! She shared so many unique stories about Charleston’s past, present, and future that we really felt like we got to know the city through her tour. This was a great tour that really shared a lot of perspective. Highly recommended!

  • We had the most wonderful time on our Walk and Talk History and Historic Gossip tour. Tyler was fantastic and so knowledgeable about the history of Charleston. We really felt like we had the opportunity to see the whole city on foot as well as hear unique stories of the history of Charleston. We will certainly be back to experience other Walk and Talk tours!

  • One of the best tours I've been on. Tyler knew so much about Charleston's colonial and antebellum period as well as more recent history. We really appreciated how she presented historical figures and that she touched on the challenges Charleston is facing today. Her tour was much more in-depth than what I've experienced with other tours. We highly recommend the History & Historic Gossip Tour!

  • Tyler is an incredibly knowledgeable and passionate expert of Charleston history. You can tell she’s truly inspired by all sides of it, and does not shy away from less than rosy details of the reality of colonialism that other guides might. She’s also kind and funny, and has never met a stranger. Highly recommend!

  • Layton was absolutely brilliant. Really knowledgeable and friendly. Would certainly recommend this tour and tour guide!

    Polly M.

  • Had such a great time walking and talking with Gia of Walk and Talk Charleston on their "Real Rainbow Row" LGBT+ history tour. She was a very informative and engaging tour guide that made the morning feel more like a conversation than a history tour!
