Welcome to Eclectic Tours of Charleston!

Home of the Official Outer Banks Film Locations Tour!!

Before starting my tour business, I had several years of luxury hospitality experience, was formerly a Graduate Teaching Instructor at San Francisco State University, then later became a travel writer.

In 2015, my essays were published as an e-book titled Life is Like a Walking Safari.

I hold an M.A. in Humanities from SFSU and an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Southern California.

I love creating unforgettable travel experiences. It has truly been the joy of my life to provide thousands of guests with memorable moments through my private tours in the beautiful city of Charleston, SC.
