Hilton Head Island is in South Carolina, just across the border from Savannah, Georgia. It is located on a beautiful, semi-tropical 12 mile barrier island. Hilton Head Island is a vacation playland with famous beaches and great golf courses that overlook the Atlantic Ocean. The island has a rich history that started with seasonal occupation by native Americans thousands of years ago, and continued with European exploration and the Sea Island Cotton trade. It became an important base of operations for the Union blockade of the Southern ports during the Civil War. Today it is best known as a seaside resort destination with superb golf courses.

You will be provided with a pre-departure package which will include all necessary information that you will need for your trip including materials such as vouchers, maps, train tickets (if relevant) etc.

Your tour Guide will first explain the history of this barrier island and there will be stops at several historical sites which may include: Baynard Ruins, Fort Mitchell, Farmlands and the tabby ruins. En route, you will also learn about the natural, coastal environment and the intrinsic wildlife found here. Your Guide will point out live oak trees, salt marshes, various species of birds and possibly even an alligator. As you continue, the tour will take you through the island’s planned residential communities or “Plantations”. One of those stops will be at Harbour Town.
