Why did Blackbeard blockade the Charleston harbor?
Where was the notorious Anne Bonny's favorite watering hole?
Why did the Gentleman Pirate, Stede Bonnet, don a dress?
What was Calico Jack's connection to Charleston?
Which pirates danced the hempen jig in White Point Gardens?
Why did pirates wear eye patches?
These are just a few of the questions that professional storyteller and licensed Charleston Tour Guide Eric Lavender answers as he tells tales of historic Charleston, leading you to the hangouts, "haunts," and final resting places of pirates, who made Charleston one of their ports-o-call during Golden Age of Piracy (1690-1730).
Eric brings to life the pirates, who visited ou
r fair shores: Stede Bonnet, Blackbeard, Richard Worley, Charles Vane, and of course the ferocious female pirates, Mary Read and Anne Bonny.
We are proud to include in the tour - at no additional charge - the Powder Magazine, a National Historic Landmark, and the oldest public building in the state. It dates back to the original walled city of Charles Towne.
Private and group tours are available.
Note: This is a 90-minute walking tour with a limit of 20 people. The tour often runs over 90 minutes, because we pace the walk based on the group. We also take the time to answer questions.

- Tours run rain or shine. Should hazardous weather force the cancellation of a tour, you may reschedule your tour (based on availability). If you cannot reschedule, we will refund your purchase.
- We do appreciate a phone number and/or email address where we can contact you on the day of the tour in the event of a cancellation.
- This is a walking tour, so please dress accordingly. During warm weather, we suggest you bring water.
- Children are more than welcome! Tickets for children under 4 are free, but they still need a ticket, so please make sure you include free tickets for the young ones on your order.
- The health & well-being of Captain Bob are priorities for us, so please understand that we cannot guarantee his appearance on every tour. Bob does not tour if the temperature is below 60. Also, we do not force Bob to tour. As with animals in other animal interaction programs (think SeaWorld and Discovery Cove), at times, Bob just does not want to participate. Please keep this in mind, as we do not offer refunds if Captain Bob cannot participate in your scheduled tour.
- The tour route is in public areas over which we have no control. Charleston Pirate Tours is not responsible and cannot be held liable for behavior of the public, other tour patrons, or any accidents during the tour.
