100 Things to Do in Charleston

Are you ready for this??? I put together a list of 100 (in progress) of my favorite things to do in Charleston. This is not an exhaustive list – in fact, I didn’t even include carriage rides or the beaches. And for all of the exhibitions and celebrations, I have included 1-2 of my favorite events at each event…check out the exhibition website for information on other events. On each of these items, I have categorized everything to make it easy to find what you are looking for and included some insider tips. Let’s go!
