About

Discover Charleston through the eyes of a real historian with three college degrees, including a PhD. This experience is a conversation built around you — what you care about, what you’re curious about, and what you hope to understand. Cooper starts by learning what matters most to you, then shapes the experience around your interests. Along the way, he’ll reveal things you never knew, challenge things you thought you knew, and give you the deeper context that makes Charleston’s history so fascinating, complicated, funny, and unforgettable. Using a storytelling style filled with humor, insight, and plenty of thought-provoking questions, Cooper leads you from Waterfront Park south toward the famous Charleston Battery. You’ll see beautiful landmarks, walk historic streets, and explore the colorful, surprising, and sometimes irreverent story of early Charles Towne. By the time the tour ends, you’ll be close to where you began — but you won’t be the same traveler who started.
