Experience Charlotte’s history and culture from a fresh perspective on a guided city tour by open-air golf cart. Start your journey at the convenient Market at 7th Street, where you’ll find restrooms, snacks, drinks, discounted parking, and a souvenir shop to browse before you set off. Settle into a smooth, extra-cushioned golf cart and enjoy a comfortable ride as your knowledgeable guide brings the city’s stories to life.
Travel through Charlotte’s storied neighborhoods, including the historic Fourth Ward, and learn about the city’s fascinating past dating back to the 1700s. Hear about the origins of the Queen City’s name, the gold rush era, and legendary figures like the “medicine man.” See where Elvis once performed, discover the city’s first hospital, and pass by the famous Bootlegger house. The tour is designed with frequent stops for photos, giving you plenty of opportunities to capture Charlotte’s unique landmarks and hidden gems.
Sports fans will appreciate views of Bank of America Stadium, Truist Ball Field, and the NASCAR Hall of Fame. As you cruise down Main Street, your guide will point out public art installations, museums, and other sites that shape Charlotte’s vibrant character. The tour is family-friendly, with children under 4 riding free, and offers a food discount at a local restaurant to enjoy after your adventure. Your journey concludes back at the Market, leaving you perfectly placed to explore more of the city at your own pace.
In the event of rainy and/or cold weather, we swap to our bus to keep guests comfortable!
