    The bus part of the tour was outstanding. Heather gave an in-depth history of Beaufort from the Spanish arrival through the occupation by Union troops. We actually ran over by a half hour which was fine. She was spirited and articular. We were pleasantly surprised and would recommend the tour for anyone. The boat part was also Informative about history and wildlife. We ere able to witness several dolphin pods. Totally excellent.

    We learned so much on both of these tours! Please take a day (or two) to take both of the tours. First of all - make note that if you book these tours and decide to do them on the same day, the boat tour would be first at 11AM Eastern time and the bus tour will be at 2 PM, which means that you have time to walk some place to get lunch and come back for the second tour. Now, with that said, the boat tour not only gives you information on the ecosystem of the area (yes, you'll probably see some birds and dolphins), but also delves into some historical information of the area, from the Native Americans who inhabited the area to the Europeans who tried and ultimately succeeded in colonizing the area and to the enslaved people who were brought to the area by the colonizers and what happened here during the Civil War. The bus tour, with Dean as tour guide, provided more in depth information. He is a wonderful storyteller should probably be an actor. Without giving anything away, he discussed life in Beaufort during the antebellum period, during the Civil War, Reconstruction and the Civil Rights movement 100 years later. Beaufort and the Sea Islands have done a really good job of preserving their historical homes and buildings so you can actually see the places being discussed and makes their place in history more tangible. Beaufort's history is American history.

    The boat ride was really great. Some history in with fun. The captain was really good at maneuvering near the dolphins and even though the weather was gloomy the atmosphere on the boat was not. We highly recommend Gray Lines tours!
