We had a great time getting to know people from different parts of the country and enjoyed some amazing food! Jessica was a wonderful guide whose passion for history and food shown through. Upper King Street has a different vibe than the other culinary tour and I think it is worth doing both to get a taste of lots of restaurants in Charleston.
