Introducing Hilton Head Island -- a tour for everyone!!

Emory introduced us to so many unique things about this island that we had never heard in the past 15 years of trips to HHI. The tour was very professional, yet very personal.

I would recommend this tour to EVERY visitor; it gives you a much broader understanding of the area and the colorful history which you don't get from any of the slick brochures. The whole experience was ...
