Too little time yet informative!!

Divya_A, July 2023

Learning the painful history of plantations and celebrating the ongoing efforts of changes in progressive modern day livings.

Response from Host, July 2023

Snap! Tours focuses on letting visitors see many different places in the same tour, while concentrating on the locations' true history. Visiting 4 plantations and the oldest church in the South is a big undertaking for a 1/2 day tour... but you can brag that you didn't visit just one plantation (whose tours take most of the day)!

Fun time!
