Outstanding job, Diana!! I have visited Charleston numerous times and visited many of the historic homes and sites you described, and I learned a lot. Not only was it informational, but your style and anecdotes were entertaining, and your pride in beautiful Charleston was very evident.

Great tour thank you from Edinburgh, Scotland UK. The ‘ largest home in Charleston ‘ that you pointed out “ the Colquhoun mansion”towards 55 mins; was featured in the The North and South mini series in 1986, It was ‘ George Hazards’ family home…..I watched the series avidly from Scotland as a teenager as it starred Patrick Swayze.. 😆

Diana, You got a good vibe going and great energy for walking Charleston. Really enjoyed the tour. I live in Aiken, SC and never go near Charleston because I don't like to walk. So, your tour was very inspiring. One suggestion: When talking about Palladian architecture, please know that Andrea Palladio was Italian, not Greek! He loved Greek architecture, but he was definitely Italiano.

OMG, that was great. 👏👏 Diana is a book of knowledge. That was a long walk. Whew. The Williams mansion is open for tour. I've been and it was great. So much to see inside as the owner is a collector of many things. The house itself is gorgeous. There's a gift shop on the side at ground level. It cost me $17 for admission in 2019, but worth it. Fyi, parking in the city is hard to come by, but there is free parking along the Battery.

I listened to all this video this young lady does a great job telling the history of the city. I'm almost 60 years old I was born in Charleston. My 16th great-grandfather from Scotland came to Charlestown. They left England and they were part of the original the 86 people that came the present-day Charlestowne Landing. Alot of slaves were sold at actions right where the great Wooden Ships would come in on the Cooper River especially in Adgar's Wharf area . For many many years to come this was were the docking of ships during this time. Later on United States government developed the Charleston Naval Shipyard and the shipyard had destroyers and minesweepers but the harbor is no more than 45 ft in-depth and could not accommodate bigger ships such as aircraft carriers still today for the merchant container ships they have to dredge the harbor were the Freighter ships come and go from Ports Authority both on the Cooper River and now the Wando River.

I got out of the Navy in Charleston, met my sweet wife there and we had two boys while we lived there. I think I was there for about 9 years, and my wife most of her life before I met her. I never knew all that history!!! I a from Georgia, so I learned Ga History more, but now that we no longer live in SC, we come to visit my Mother in Law, who is 90, and if we are able to make it there this year, we want to take in some of the historical sites and some of the recreational areas. Thank you for all this wonderful information!!!
Glad you liked it! Did you spike your pineapple on your gate to show you were having a party or use it as a center piece and then rent it to someone else to use as their centerpiece? No? That’s what they did here back in the day! Happy Travels😀

Thank you Diana for a wonderful tour!! Wish I had seen it before my two visits to your beautiful city - but I'll be back soon and I look forward to seeing some of the alleys and houses that I didn't see on those visits. I have numerous ancestors who lived worshipped and died there - English, Scottish and Huguenots. When I'm walking around the city I can't help but wish I lived there when they did. LOL

Pineapple spindle tops on my brother's home, built in 1914 or 15 which was built by a Steel Baron here in the South. Gorgeous home that they brought it to its original condition but were only the 3rd owners! The care takers home rest neatly at the back of the property. My daughter, after she graduated University, was gifted a years free rent and utilities by my brother and his wife. A lovely home with a friendly ghost as a bonus! Yes, welcome to the deep South.🍍🍍

Great tour thank you from Edinburgh, Scotland UK. The ‘ largest home in Charleston ‘ that you pointed out “ the Colquhoun mansion”towards 55 mins; was featured in the The North and South mini series in 1986, It was ‘ George Hazards’ family home…..I watched the series avidly from Scotland as a teenager as it starred Patrick Swayze.. 😆

Much appreciated Thomas!
Diana, You got a good vibe going and great energy for walking Charleston. Really enjoyed the tour. I live in Aiken, SC and never go near Charleston because I don't like to walk. So, your tour was very inspiring. One suggestion: When talking about Palladian architecture, please know that Andrea Palladio was Italian, not Greek! He loved Greek architecture, but he was definitely Italiano.

OMG, that was great. 👏👏 Diana is a book of knowledge. That was a long walk. Whew. The Williams mansion is open for tour. I've been and it was great. So much to see inside as the owner is a collector of many things. The house itself is gorgeous. There's a gift shop on the side at ground level. It cost me $17 for admission in 2019, but worth it.
Fyi, parking in the city is hard to come by, but there is free parking along the Battery.

I just got back from Charleston and I want to thank you for this video I put my headphones on and was listening to you while walking so thank you 😊
Did you follow the exact same route?
My city home. CofC alumni. History major and learned a few things I never realized watching this.
Miss her, my fair lady by the sea. I do hate seeing the corporations and gentrification going on downtown. Feel lucky to have known the Charleston of the late 90s.
I enjoyed your tour very much Diana. I have always wanted to go to Charleston.

Girlfriend, you really know this history very, very well,
Great Job!😊❤❤
Thank you! 😄
I listened to all this video this young lady does a great job telling the history of the city. I'm almost 60 years old I was born in Charleston. My 16th great-grandfather from Scotland came to Charlestown. They left England and they were part of the original the 86 people that came the present-day Charlestowne Landing. Alot of slaves were sold at actions right where the great Wooden Ships would come in on the Cooper River especially in Adgar's Wharf area . For many many years to come this was were the docking of ships during this time. Later on United States government developed the Charleston Naval Shipyard and the shipyard had destroyers and minesweepers but the harbor is no more than 45 ft in-depth and could not accommodate bigger ships such as aircraft carriers still today for the merchant container ships they have to dredge the harbor were the Freighter ships come and go from Ports Authority both on the Cooper River and now the Wando River.

I got out of the Navy in Charleston, met my sweet wife there and we had two boys while we lived there. I think I was there for about 9 years, and my wife most of her life before I met her. I never knew all that history!!! I a from Georgia, so I learned Ga History more, but now that we no longer live in SC, we come to visit my Mother in Law, who is 90, and if we are able to make it there this year, we want to take in some of the historical sites and some of the recreational areas. Thank you for all this wonderful information!!!
Your voice is so lovely to hear and your walk is wonderful but all the time we're looking at you we're missing the buildings.
Superb! 👌 Learned a lot today. Will get myself some pineapple 🍍 tonight.
Wonderful! Are pineapples plentiful in Prague?
Glad you liked it! Did you spike your pineapple on your gate to show you were having a party or use it as a center piece and then rent it to someone else to use as their centerpiece? No? That’s what they did here back in the day!
Happy Travels😀

What a superb travelogue on Charleston. Thank you so much. Brought back many happy memories of the two times I've visited. ❤️
It was an incredible tour with tons of incredible history. If i will visit Charleston in Spring u will be my tour guide. U have an encyclopedic knowledge.
Please do! You can find our tours here freetoursbyfoot.com/charleston-sc-tours/.
You guys should do Houston tours as well!
This is the second request for Houston. Something to consider.
@@FreeToursbyFootHQ Yess, please consider a Houston tour! It’s a massive place with the history pretty spread out, but would be totally worth it!
Outstanding video, Diana! We're visiting Charleston at the end of November this year. We'd love to take one of tours when in town (three days). You are an incredible repository of Charleston knowledge and experience. Thanks for the video!

Thank you Diana for a wonderful tour!! Wish I had seen it before my two visits to your beautiful city - but I'll be back soon and I look forward to seeing some of the alleys and houses that I didn't see on those visits. I have numerous ancestors who lived worshipped and died there - English, Scottish and Huguenots. When I'm walking around the city I can't help but wish I lived there when they did. LOL
thats one beautiful tour guide! =)

Pineapple spindle tops on my brother's home, built in 1914 or 15 which was built by a Steel Baron here in the South. Gorgeous home that they brought it to its original condition but were only the 3rd owners! The care takers home rest neatly at the back of the property. My daughter, after she graduated University, was gifted a years free rent and utilities by my brother and his wife. A lovely home with a friendly ghost as a bonus! Yes, welcome to the deep South.🍍🍍
I’ve been there a few times and loved it 👍
