Charleston, South Carolina, is often called the "Holy City," but for those seeking the unfiltered truth, it is the Holy City of Gullah. For history lovers visiting this coastal destination, the typical colonial narratives often skim over the most vital part of the city’s identity: the Gullah Geechee Heritage.

Led by Chief Godfrey KHill, the only full-blooded Gullah Geechee historian in the city, Gullah Geechee Tours provides an educational experience that bridges the gap between historical records and living culture.
