The Exchange Club of Beaufort is a community organization based in Beaufort, South Carolina, that produces public guided ghost tours in Beaufort’s historic district. The Exchange Club of Beaufort offers two signature experiences: the Walking Ghost Tour and the Carriage Ghost Tour. The Walking Ghost Tour invites participants to experience the eerie charm of moss-draped streets at dusk while local storytellers share haunting tales and the possibility of witnessing a ghostly vision. The Carriage Ghost Tour presents the same historic storytelling on a carriage ride through the district, combining history and atmosphere for an unforgettable evening. Both events feature local guides and storytellers who interpret Beaufort’s historic sites and folklore for visitors.
As part of its programming, the Exchange Club of Beaufort uses these tours to support community causes; the Carriage Ghost Tour specifically benefits the Child Abuse Prevention Association, and the walking event supports a worthy cause in the community. Tours are held in Beaufort’s historic district and are promoted as evening events that emphasize storytelling, history, and local atmosphere. Information about schedules, tickets, accessibility, and group bookings is available through the Exchange Club of Beaufort’s public listings and event announcements.
