Charleston History Walk LLC offers guided, small-group walking tours that explore Charleston, South Carolina’s layered past. Led by Eric Lager, Ph.D., a Citadel professor and certified tour guide, Charleston History Walk provides a focused 2.75-hour experience that traces the city from its 1670 founding through Reconstruction, the 20th century, and into contemporary life.

Participants learn about major events, local landmarks, and the social and cultural forces that shaped the historic district. Tours emphasize factual, source-based storytelling and encourage questions from guests.
