Bay Street Bastards Pub Crawl Shared Tour in Charleston
Overview
History never tasted so wicked! A bone-chilling dive into the criminal heart of Charleston—a city steeped in elegance, drenched in secrets, and soaked in blood. From the cobblestones of colonial corruption to the courtrooms of a sensational modern-day murder, this tour serves up centuries of true crime with a twist of lime and a shot of audacity.
Led by our fearless guides, you’ll prowl the streets where con men, killers, and crooked aristocrats once ruled, stopping at some of Charleston’s finest bars to sip your way through its most scandalous chapters. You’ll uncover tales that Charleston would rather leave buried— tabloid-worthy tragedies that still echo through the alleyways.
Thirsty? Good. You’ll need a strong drink for what you’re about to hear. Cocktails are available for purchase at every stop—because dark stories go down better with a stiff pour.
If you have 7 or more guests in one group, please get in touch with our the private & group sales coordinator.
