What a fun day!! Craig was on time and his mini-van was exceptionally clean. BrookGreen Gardens was amazing, even in November. We loved the Hammock Shoppes and the drive through Huntington Park made the tour. Thanks again for such a lovely afternoon! We highly recommend this tour to future travel...
