Customer Reviews
This tour was absolutely amazing! Sally Ann Robinson is a generational native whom has the knowledge and history we are want to know and share. She's amazing, funny and passionate about her home land and a chef at its best! Sallie is also a renowned Best selling Author of several books featured with Oprah Winfrey and best sailing magazines! I did not want to leave! The low country sea islands are peace and tranquility at its best!💝
Sallie Ann’s Gullah Tour was delightful! Her enthusiasm was infectious. I recommend renting a golf cart before or after to do some retail therapy on the island too. Also, the Water Taxi from H2OSports in Harbour Town is an easier, quicker and less expensive travel option to/from Daufuskie than the ferry.
Sallie Ann is a tremendous tour guide: A 6th-generation Gullah with a passion for telling people about her culture but, more than that, showing them. Her stories about the year she spent in sixth grade learning from teacher Pat Conroy on Daufuskie Island (he later became a famous author) added to the experience! A very fast 3 hours; highly recommended.
