My wife & I took this tour in Apr '24. Leanne was always keeping us "in the loop" getting ready for the tour. Her van was very nice. She had "goodie" bags with snacks & water available for us which was wonderful touch. The tour was all over the Charleston area. We saw and heard stories about the history and current tidbits of info. Her good friend Jay, was driving and as a realtor, he provided much insight on buildings, housing costs, and additional historical info about the area. Leanne had a mic on so we could all hear her (there were 9 of us on the tour) and made sure we could all hear, ask questions, etc. We had time for restroom breaks and to stretch our legs. Overall, the day flew by and we all agreed this was one of our best tours. I had read rave reviews about Leanne from previous tour customers and they are spot on. Leanne does a great job and is the BEST! (Hint: take this tour!)

Great tour, very interesting- our guide was really thorough and organised, water & snacks were provided and we even received an itinerary of the tour on arrival

Wonderful tour! Broad cross section of Charleston area. The stops were meaningful and the variety helped give us a feel for the area! Thoroughly enjoyed!

We (myself, my wife and my mother) made a reservation with Leanne just a few days before for the Complete Charleston Tour and we absolutely give her our highest recommendation. She is so professional nice knowledgeable and accommodating. This tour is an amazing way to see 12 sites starting inside but most are in the low country outside of the city proper. First, Leanne is a wonderful guide. Check out her website where she has the complete itinerary. I cant image trying to see all this on our own. The tour is a great value and the perfect way to make the most of your time in Charleston and to see the important sites. The sites were beautiful and the history amazing. The van is first class. The lunch stop food was a real highlight. A gem of a local eatery. This tour can’t be beat! Thanks so much!

Our whole family had a wonderful time. The van was super comfy and Leanne was great about taking input on what the group most wanted to do. Learned a lot and got plenty of chances to stretch and walk. The strategy worked great for us - a number of brief stops at things we wanted to see, but without the hassles of navigating traffic and parking for multiple shorter events. Loved it- and as others have said, the day flew by. Thx for the great time, Leanne!

This was an awesome tour that allows you to see beyond the downtown area of Charleston. Our guide Leeann was the sweetest and her stories kept us engaged the entire day. The sites you are able to see on this tour are breathtaking, highly recommend this tour for a full day of fun!

My daughter and I took a trip to Charleston. This was her first visit to Charleston. Our time was a bit limited, and I wanted my daughter to see as much of the area as possible. Our Get Out of Town tour with Leanne did not disappoint. The tour started with a walking tour and ended with a water taxi ride back to Charleston. In between we visited all the sites described in the tour listing. Nothing was left out and we even had a few surprises. The tour was exactly as advertised plus much more. Leanne contacted us the day before our tour to remind us of meeting time and place and to discuss lunch plans. While we were following a schedule, we never felt rushed. Leanne is a wealth of knowledge. Her narrative is not boring but educational and entertaining. We saw and learned much more than we could have done on our own. She is the driver and the guide. Her vehicle is very comfortable and since the number is limited there is no problem with viewing scenery or hearing Leanne's discussion. She does have a headset she will use if warranted. We were quite ok without it. While it is necessary to drive to the varied locations, we had ample opportunities to walk and explore. Plus great pictures were taken. Again, we never felt rushed . I would highly recommend this tour!!!! Leanne and her tour are well worth the money and time !!! I would like to add a personal note about Leanne. Due to fog and slowed traffic we were late getting to our meeting spot and starting our tour. Leanne was very professional, considerate of us and the three others on the tour. She made us feel at ease , told us to be safe driving, and it would all be fine. We only missed the walking part of the tour which was ok. The others were not inconvenienced and were made to feel welcome when we joined the group. Having traveled extensively and been on several tours Leanne could have taken a much different approach. We appreciate her kindness and understanding. Book with Leanne and Snap! Picture Perfect Tours. It is the moments in life that matter. With Leanne we were given several moments to treasure.

LeAnn was amazing! We were able to see so many places that we would have never driven to ourselves. LeAnn was very knowledgeable. You will ride in a comfortable vehicle and have snacks and water supplied. She takes you to all the best places, and she snaps a photo. Highly recommend!!

small4style

This tour with Leanne was such a fabulous way to experience so many different attractions in Charleston, especially because we didn't rent a car on this trip. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. We highly recommend taking a tour with Snap! We also appreciated that she took our picture for us at each stop.

Very nice tour that gives you a look at many attractions by van, foot and water taxi. Our guide was very personable, knowledgeable and accommodating. Fun and informative 6 1/2 hour jaunt! And I have to thank her for the great family photos she took of us along the way!
