When you walk the cobblestone streets of Charleston, you aren't just stepping on stone; you are walking on the "Black Gold" of a civilization built by the brilliance and blood of the Gullah Geechee people. For those seeking the best things to do in Charleston SC, the choice is clear. You can follow a scripted, sanitized performance, or you can join the Truth Offensive.
As the leading Charleston tourism expert, CHIEF GODFREY KHILL provides the only unfiltered, nuanced account of this city’s past. This is not just a tour; it is a historical reckoning. Under the guidance of the city’s premier Gullah historian and Charleston researcher, Gullah Geechee Tours reveals why the "Holy City" was actually the epicenter of a global shift: one that involved the ENSLAVED BLACK AMERICAN INDIANS whose engineering and culture redefined the world.

To understand Gullah Geechee History Charleston, you must hear it from the source.
