Can anyone recommend the best restaurants on the tour?

I’m thinking about gifting the Tastes Through Time tour to my parents for their anniversary. They love trying new food! I heard there are some amazing restaurants included, but I'd love to know which ones are the highlights. Any must-tries that I should tell them about?

Just did the food tour and it was amazing!

I recently went on the Tastes Through Time tour in Charleston, and wow! The food was out of this world. We stopped at three different restaurants, each with its unique charm, and the guide was super knowledgeable. The history combined with the food made for a fantastic experience. Totally recommend it for anyone wanting to explore Charleston’s culinary scene!
