Cheap flights from Rome to Charleston from £286

Join a special tour of Charleston to learn some aspects of its history from a unique perspective — through the eyes of women. There have been many in the city, who over the years have contributed to the Great American Dream, and at one time, Charleston was owned and run by women. This tour begins at the Old Charleston Jail, which is situated at 21 Magazine Street.

Are you a fan of the series Outer Banks on Netflix? It was filmed on location in Charleston, and there is the chance to go behind the scenes on a tour with one of the show’s actors. You will see costumes and props and will learn plenty of stories about production of the drama.

Have you ever tried stand up paddle boarding? What better place to give it a go than the tidal salt marshes where there is plenty of chance of seeing wildlife, too. If you prefer, you can take the board out to the Morris Island lighthouse, just off the northern tip of Folly Beach.
