Street Tours

Step beyond the doorways and garden gates of Charleston to experience the city's renowned architectural heritage inside and out. A hallmark of our annual spring programming, the stunning house and garden tours allow guests to explore Charleston's architecturally significant structures from the 17th century through today.

Features

Each Street Tour is named after a central street and includes a selection of private houses, lovely gardens and notable public buildings within walking distance of each other. Each tour is self-paced from property to property and at each property, guests will be guided from one room to another by our knowledgeable volunteer docents.

Tickets are limited for each Street Tour to reduce the overall impact on our city. Prior to the scheduled tours, guests will need to pick up physical tickets, with the addresses needed for the tour, at the Festival Ticket Office.
