Best Travel Agent for Charleston

Charleston Wine & Food Festival - Pinot NV Event

My initiation into the world of culinary arts began when I was attending college in Charleston, South Carolina. This foodie city developed my ongoing love for wine & food and curating experiences focused around them.

If you are looking for a great travel destination, then you should consider Charleston, SC. With its charming historic downtown, gorgeous beaches, and abundance of cultural attractions, Charleston is the perfect place to explore and have a great time.  From beautiful gardens to amazing museums and a wide variety of restaurants and shopping, Charleston has something for everyone. As your Charleston, South Carolina travel agent and advisor, I can arrange a great holiday. First, take a stroll through the beautiful City Market. This four-block outdoor enclave is home to artisans, musicians, food vendors, and more. Wander around and check out the unique souvenirs and handmade items featured for sale - the ideal place to spend a lazy day in the late spring or summer. I advise following the market on its Facebook page and you’ll know what I mean. The market is the cultural heart of Charleston - a warm and inviting place that has a fantastic history. It was established way back in 1804 and is appropriately located on Meeting Street. Next, visit the Charleston Waterfront Park. This park is located along the Ashley and Cooper Rivers and is therefore the idyllic spot for a scenic stroll or bike ride. For history buffs, a visit to the Old Exchange and Provost Dungeon is a must. This is one of the oldest buildings in Charleston, and it is home to a museum, the Provost Dungeon, and several other attractions.  During the time of the American Revolution, the British turned the bottom floor of the Exchange into a prison - the place for the Provost Dungeon. It takes about an hour to take the self-guided tour. Even if you’re not into history, you’ll love visiting this old building. You can learn more about the attraction here. Finally, don't miss the aquarium. The South Carolina Aquarium is a great place to learn about sea life and even go on dolphin-watching cruises. The aquarium also features interactive exhibits, feeding shows, and educational programs. Here’s another place you want to follow on Facebook. Charleston is the epitome of everything historic, architectural, and outdoorsy. I always tell clients that it’s one place where you can really explore. Whether you’re dining and sampling new cuisine or hiking in a state park, you’ll make some sensational discoveries. That’s why I alway advise vacationers to begin in Charleston’s historic downtown. Stroll leisurely along cobblestone streets - streets that allow you to escape to another time and place. Stop at iconic landmarks like the Battery at Fort Sumter. Arrange a visit to Pineapple Fountain and make a wish at this Waterfront Park landmark. The park rests along the Ravenel Bridge and Charleston Harbor. It also features a splash fountain for kids of all ages - something to do during the hot Lowcountry summer. You’ll discover that Charleston uses pineapple motifs in the city - iconic images that brand the city in the minds of tourists and visitors. Of course I can’t talk about Charleston without mentioning its beaches - pristine sands that stretch along the Atlantic Ocean. Make plans to visit the Isle of Palms for long shore walks or go to Folly Beach and surf or fish. You’ll also be mesmerized by the Charleston area’s stunning plantations and its excellent museums. In fact, the Charleston Museum is the oldest museum in the U.S. Get to know the city through the museum’s collection of arts, artifacts, and displays. You’ll also want to pay a visit to the Confederate Museum. Market Hall in Charleston is home to the Confederate Museum. The hall was a business hub in the city for many years from its establishment in 1899, and also served as a recruiting station during the Civil War. The museum itself is an exemplary example of the Greek Revival style of architecture. It’s been restored to its prior grandeur. Below are other attractions that you’ll want to consider on your vacation to Charleston:  

1. The Gibbes Museum of Art: Located in the heart of downtown, this museum not only houses a stunning range of both traditional and modern art but also offers an array of educational programs and events. 2. The Magnolia Plantation and Gardens: Enjoy a leisurely stroll through this historic plantation and take in the scenery of the gardens and grounds. 3. Middleton Place: A beautiful estate with picturesque grounds, gardens and ponds. 4. Angel Oak Tree: An ancient and majestic live oak tree estimated to be between 400-500 years old. Start planning your visit to explore this amazing city and all it has to offer!
