Excellent tour of my favorite city, Charleston. Your voice provides the perfect narration. I love how you include many of the great local eateries. I am really loving your videos. Charleston combines deep rooted American history with fantastic entertainment venues both outdoors and indoors, numerous and diverse menu eateries, wine & spirit tours and so much more. I fell in love with Charleston when I moved to Georgia 5 years ago and realized Charleston was only a hop, skip, & jump, away from me. Such a beautiful area. Thank you for doing this video.
As a resident of Charleston, I appreciated this video. Kiawah (key uh wah) is the place all of the transplants are building multi-million-dollar homes. King Street is the main traveled street of all tourists downtown, with tons of restaurants and shops, including Gucci, Louis Vuitton, etc. Many houses have "haint blue ceilings" in the tradition of Gullah-Geechee people driving evil spirits away. A bed swing on the porch is also distinctly lowcountry - everyone had them as they were created here. Charleston Tea Plantation on John's Island is free and you can see,how they process tea. The old jail in downtown is a popular spooky tour. We have America's number one restaurant, Hall's Chophouse, on King Street. The Star Wars housr is on,Sullivan's Island, as well as Edgar Allen Poe history. Come back and see more - Charleston is the #1 place to visit for 9 years straight by Travel and Leisure magazine.
Yes, I had a magical visit!!. Do they still have the Sea Turtle Hospital?.. It's just amazing that friends from Dallas to Chicago have loved visiting Charleston!-
It is no longer what you describe. Kiawah is not the worst area the northern “transplants” have taken over. They have taken over ALL the areas. Summerville and Mt Pleasant went from sleepy little outer areas to nothing but traffic jams and bumper to bumper housing. There’s little land left.
Excellent video, I couldn't wait to watch your video, even though it's 2am and I wake up at 6am, so I'm only going to sleep 4 hours. Randy, you are excellent, I have yet to find a youtubaire like you. I advise you, to sell your videos to the national geographic channel, you are really a perfectionist. The USA is a large open-air museum, each state has its own charm. In Charleston, I loved the beautiful architecture, it is good to live. Another thousand thank you for discovering your beautiful country. I love the USA.
Always enjoyable footage with your presentations. The narration pace was calming and informative. It left me heading for my maps and best routes to plan a visit. Thanks, look fwd to your next destination👍
We love to see people visit, we don’t even mind if you move here. But if you do, please don’t try to turn Charleston into the place you just left. Thanks y’all! :-) By the way, this is a GREAT video!!
Thankyou, yep I agree. If people run from a region, they should acclimate to the place they are moving to, instead of trying to change it from the place they are running from
Great vid. Living less then an hour north of Chucktown ( that's what locals call it ha ) we are there all the time. Great city, great dining, great people and of course great history...Great drone footage...
Great job Randy. I’m glad you mentioned Shem Creek; such a neat and out of the way place. Definitely worth taking the time stop by and grab some food and drinks.
I’m from Walterboro, SC and I always wanted to live in Charleston ever since I was a little boy. Every weekend my family would take that 45 min to Charleston to eat, and have fun.
Fantastic Video, Thanks!!! You really covered it all, and I've chosen the spots I want to visit when I can get down there from Jersey. My mouth was watering when you showed your Gumbo, I could go for some of that right now! Bella looks like she enjoyed the trip also, that little cutie... Thank you soooo very much for all your hard work, AMAZING videography, and free travel planning!!! Where are we going next???
@@TampaAerialMedia Oh I am so jealous! Feel free to share! PS- just watched your Savannah video again, being that it is the spooky season, and I still think it's my fave vid! Love everything you do though, Randy!
Awesome feature man! A friend & ex-colleague moved to Charleston, SC around mid-2019 while I moved to Seminole county, FL by the end of 2019. LOL Great times!
I just returned from a trip to Charleston. Carolina Polo and Carriage CO was the horse carriage tour we took. Dave was an awesome guide. Henry's also has rooftop dining i just had beer so no comment on the food. The provost building and dungeon is a fun tour I recommend it our guide was great. We stayed in Mount Pleasant it was beautiful and real easy to get to Charleston. Patriots point is amazing and the boat to fort Sumter [also great] can be a combined ticket. This will take all day to tour the carrier fort Sumter and the awesome destroyer US Laffey. Laffey is incredible and has a great story with short videos. Vickery's is a great restaurant/bar. The griffon and Mac's and Tommy Condon"s in Charleston were excellent places for a beer and some tasty chow. The Angel Oak is a beauty. 4 days was not enough to see all Charleston had to offer. If your a fan of history this is a good place to visit.
This is by far the most informative video I've watched yet. We're paying a visit in a few weeks, and this has helped tremendously to give me a go-to of where to visit.
What about Poogan’s Porch for dining or 82 Queen for exquisite dinners? Yes, Charleston is a smorgasbord for food, sights, shopping with friendly people and the best manners.
Having grown up in Chas. I tell people that their first trip is to just hit the highlights and figure out exactly what you want to dig into on your second and third visits. ;)
I am American trying to move from Germany in Europe to Charleston to attend the college of charleston but Jesus Christ the rent there is insane and its hard to find a place also.
You have to rent from outside of Charleston. It's my hometown and I can't afford to live there on Social Security that's why I live in Baton Rouge,Louisiana. When they made I - 525 they took out all the trailer parks and affordable apartments and houses. They took away Charleston's beauty and friendlyness.
I’ve been to Charleston several times and love it every time! But next time you head north you should do a video for Hilton Head Island and Beaufort/Port Royal
Good video and coverage of Charleston and the surrounding area. I have only one comment, however. Kiawah Island is pronounced Kee' - a - wah. It is an old indian name from the Indians that used to live there.
Great video but I had to laugh at 4:24...."driving in downtown Charleston you have to be very alert" he says as he pulls out driving with a cup of coffee in one hand and a dog in his lap....;-)
Thankyou...Oh I am alert. Being an alert driver is about what you are paying attention to. Might be drinking coffee and have a dog on my lap, but my mind is on the road
"Driving downtown Charleston you have to be very alert" (as I drive with one hand on the steering wheel, drinking coffee with the other hand, and with a dog on my lap) :-)
Yes but it will most likely be next year. Its starting to get to the point where the beaches really slow down up there, and want to do it when there is alot happening.
I traded it in, just wanted something more fuel efficient for as much as I'm driving now. Was completely happy with the Yukon other than mpg and size of fuel tank, wanted to switch over to Diesel, but they've had issues with the new Yukon Diesels, so I went with a Ram which so far very happy with got 26 mpg on that last trip and in the Yukon was getting about 17mpg overall mpg.
I traded it in for a Ram 1500 because with the gas situation wanted a Diesel. Other than that, I loved the Yukon, but also very happy with the Ram now, I get 8-10 more mpg.
I’m on JI! it is packed full no housing and traffic a nightmare if you do visit stay downtown and just walk around there’s enough to see & do just take the water taxi over to the Yorktown
Excellent work on this guide! I'm planning a trip there in a few months and am planning on taking a number of drone shots (part 107). Did you have to get permission to fly in certain areas and if so how hard to get the contacts to apply?
That vintage device you’re talking about. Everybody knows what that is. We used to see this on city streets all the time. It was a payphone. People would walk up to it and then they would make phone calls.
@@angelalaskodi3459 It's the south so it does get hot in the summer, winters can be mild mostly but sometimes cold. Like right now it's cold in the 50's for the high and 20's for the low. Also sometimes we do get snow but it's rare that it happens. The last time Charleston had snow was in 2018.

I have been to Charleston twice. It is one of the most beautiful cities I've seen. The architecture, the vibe... is just superb!!!❤
I have been to Charleston a couple of times. It is really a good place to visit. Lots of stuff to see and do
I like that this video adds admission ranges, tour descriptions, some hotel policies and nearby eateries. Those are very helpful.
Thankyou for the feedback, appreciate it

We enjoyed Shem Creek at sunset after a
Really nice meal at Pages Okra Grill

Thankyou Mike, hope you are doing good
As someone who moved here recently, I love seeing so many of my favorite places get some love.
Your videos are very interesting, informative and enjoyable. Thank you for sharing.
Thankyou Joe for the nice words.
What an absolute gem of America. We must keep that treasure intact. Great video.

I love Charleston, my favorite place on earth
This is crazy, i stayed at that Days Inn( parking pass very important) And ate at Hymans as a guest of the owner!! We share good taste!
Yep, I booked it for that parking spot, eventhough it was an additional $20. Alot of people on here had reccomended Hymans.
I’m from Charleston and live 4 blocks from Hymans…don’t know anyone who lives here who would ever eat there.

This is by far the most informative video I've watched yet. We're paying a visit in a few weeks, and this has helped tremendously to give me a go-to of where to visit.
That is great to hear, that is what we've strive for....I'd also check out the video of the tour guide I mention in the video, she was great.

@@TampaAerialMedia no problem!
Joy! A new video delight! Thank you
Thankyou Monty, next video will be within 2 weeks.
Dang you're so good and thorough at this! Gonna head up from Tampa in a couple now.
Yep its a good road trip from Tampa, far enough away where you feel like you are in a very different region, yet still an easy one day drive.
Hello from Italy Great video, love the music from the beggining
Great to hear from Italy, appreciate the feedback with the music, always interested what people think.
One of the most informative video's I have seen on these places! Well done!!!

Great video Randy. I would love to visit someday to bike the greenways and tour the Yorktown. Maybe even see that ancient communications device. ☎️
yep if you do the greenway, I would reccomend the western side of the greenway, its more scenic
Many of the houses on south battery were constructed during reconstruction.
This is a great video! Love it! Thank you for sharing.
Thankyou, you are welcome

yep that is good advice
I am American trying to move from Germany in Europe to Charleston to attend the college of charleston but Jesus Christ the rent there is insane and its hard to find a place also.
Yep if you go alittle ways outside of Charleston, I think you'll find it much cheaper.

When they made I - 525 they took out all the trailer parks and affordable apartments and houses. They took away Charleston's beauty and friendlyness.
I’ve been to Charleston several times and love it every time! But next time you head north you should do a video for Hilton Head Island and Beaufort/Port Royal
Yes I am looking at Hilton Head Island, may check out Beaufort/Port Royal, but probably not enough of a demand for that to do a video.
Good video and coverage of Charleston and the surrounding area. I have only one comment, however. Kiawah Island is pronounced Kee' - a - wah. It is an old indian name from the Indians that used to live there.
thanks yep I stand corrected
Great video but I had to laugh at 4:24...."driving in downtown Charleston you have to be very alert" he says as he pulls out driving with a cup of coffee in one hand and a dog in his lap....;-)

Amazing video

Hi I look to see more and how is the baby to on all the trips you do

Glad to be of help OTP
Well done showing my home town

"Driving downtown Charleston you have to be very alert" (as I drive with one hand on the steering wheel, drinking coffee with the other hand, and with a dog on my lap) :-)
yep, still very alert. My eyes and my mind are on the road. Far more alert than those with a passenger and talking.
Here watching bro
Going to be doing the high country in SC in Nov
Very informative video. Thank you.
thankyou High Brass
Are you not doing a video for Myrtle Beach?
Yes but it will most likely be next year. Its starting to get to the point where the beaches really slow down up there, and want to do it when there is alot happening.

thankyou Santiago

What happened to your Yukon Denali?.
I traded it in, just wanted something more fuel efficient for as much as I'm driving now. Was completely happy with the Yukon other than mpg and size of fuel tank, wanted to switch over to Diesel, but they've had issues with the new Yukon Diesels, so I went with a Ram which so far very happy with got 26 mpg on that last trip and in the Yukon was getting about 17mpg overall mpg.
I've been all over the place and I must say Charleston is rediculasly expensive. I will do a video soon on "Buyer Beware".
Not worth it in my opinion.
Beautiful city. What happened to the GMC Yukon?
I traded it in for a Ram 1500 because with the gas situation wanted a Diesel. Other than that, I loved the Yukon, but also very happy with the Ram now, I get 8-10 more mpg.
Thank you so much for this video!! For folks moving there for the first time, would you recommend best areas based on walkability and nature :)
I would say the Mt Pleasant area just north of downtown, but maybe others might have better info than I do.
we are FULL! Please go to SAVANNAH instead
I’m on JI! it is packed full no housing and traffic a nightmare if you do visit stay downtown and just walk around there’s enough to see & do just take the water taxi over to the Yorktown
Now you know how Florida feels. Unfortunately, Charleston would go broke without tourism.
Amen
I tell people evidently the state of Ohio New Jersey and New York are all relocating here
You do a great job and explain everything very well. Thank you for all the information Ed Evans.
Love Charleston
If you could only travel to Savanah or Charleston which would you pick? Which has more to do?
That's really a toss up, Savannah probably has more to
Thank you thank you 🙏🏻
Excellent work on this guide! I'm planning a trip there in a few months and am planning on taking a number of drone shots (part 107). Did you have to get permission to fly in certain areas and if so how hard to get the contacts to apply?
Charleston is pretty open, the few areas that we restrictive used Airmap app.
8/18/24 Viewing AGAIN; loved it!
Thats great to hear thankyou
That vintage device you’re talking about. Everybody knows what that is. We used to see this on city streets all the time. It was a payphone. People would walk up to it and then they would make phone calls.

3/3/22 Viewing; loved it!
Thankyou Thomas, great to hear.
If you are visiting, please walk. My ice-cream regularly melts when I’m driving behind people going 5 miles per hour.
The large market down town is called the Slave Market by locals and those of native South Carolinians.
True, however to note, it was never used to Sell Slaves. Freed Blacks & Slaves did work that which is I believe how it got its name.
@@alison797Downtown flea market too damn to int the summer. You can have it.
Cobblestone streets…made from ships ballast
Do locals know that their city is alive history?
