Here we see the oldest landscaped gardens in America, laid out by Henry Middleton in 1781. One hundred slaves labored for a decade to complete the work. Middleton is a masterpiece of formal landscaping, flowers, lakes and terracing. After touring Middleton Place we arrive in Charleston and check in to our hotel for a two-night stay. Dinner is included in tour this evening along the beautiful Charleston waterfront. B, D |

See impeccably preserved and restored homes, visit the Battery with some of the settlement’s earliest fortifications, and see St. Michael’s Episcopal Church, with a graveyard dating back to 1752. This afternoon we travel to Magnolia Gardens, described by Reader’s Digest as “one of the most remarkable bits of work that has been done in the world.” Tonight we try out another great Charleston restaurant, included in tour. B, D |
| Day 4 | After our included breakfast we enjoy a boat cruise to Fort Sumter, the place where the “War Between the States” began. In addition to seeing the Fort, you’ll get a sweeping view of the historic Charleston skyline and beautiful Charleston Harbor. Then we depart for our drive to another great city of the Old South, Savannah, Georgia. En route we enjoy a scenic drive through towering live oaks and Spanish moss on our way to Beaufort. Our local guide will share many historic facts of Beaufort. A dozen movies including “Forrest Gump” have been filmed here. Then we’re off to Savannah for a two-night stay. Dinner will be enjoyed in tour this evening. B, D |
