Before the gap between the Sea Islands and the mainland was bridged,
the descendents of the West African slaves living on Hilton Head Island
survived by leaning on their rich heritage and expert self sustaining skills.
But times have changed since the bridge has been implemented, and so have the
community members residing in the area.
The primary focus now is to keep the culture alive through Hilton Head Tours organized by Gullah
decedents themselves through the authentic Gullah Heritage Trail Tours. The
guides on these organized tours are local residents with a shared history with
the community and know the Gullah culture well. The Gullah culture and
community on the island has grown in popularity due to Gullah Heritage Trail
Tours. Historians, enthusiasts and tourists visiting Hilton Head have all
enjoyed learning about this rich culture.
If you want to add a fun, cultural activity to your Hilton Head
vacation, you can add this tour to your itinerary. It will only take two hours
of your time and you will take back something memorable from the tour itself.
