Arrive Friday afternoon. Check-in to your luxury accommodations at Charleston’s grand dame, Belmond Charleston Place. Drop your bags and head to King Street’s The Rarebit for happy hour. You’ll find yourself socializing plenty on King Street, also the location of your hotel, and Rarebit’s $5 Moscow mules and wine are just the right introduction. Follow up cocktails with a scrumptious seafood dinner at The Ordinary, nestled in a former bank. Get your first taste of the city’s history — with a twist — on a haunted walking tour. Known as America’s most haunted city, there are plenty of options, including ghost tours run by Ghost City Tours.
Start Saturday with shopping. Grab breakfast and peruse the culinary delights at Charleston Farmers Market, open seasonally 8 a.m.–2 p.m., before browsing the 300 vendors at Charleston City Market, one of the nation’s oldest public markets, 9:30 a.m.–6 p.m. For lunch, enjoy Lowcountry cuisine in the restored Victorian house today home to Poogan’s Porch. Wander the city in the afternoon, exploring the historic mansions, including Joseph Manigult, Nathaniel Russell, Heyward-Washington, Aiken-Rhett and Calhoun Mansion houses. You can also head to Charleston Harbor and Fort Sumter.
If relaxation is more your speed and the weather is on your side, spend the afternoon instead at Folly Beach.
Devour more delectable Lowcountry cuisine during dinner at Slightly North of Broad, before a nightcap at Prohibition, with its speakeasy vibes and inventive cocktails.
On your final day in Charleston, load up with a South American-inspired brunch at The Getaway, run by a former Top Chef contestant. While away the afternoon at America’s more photographed plantation, Boone Hall, before your evening flight home.
