While You're in the John's Island Area

 

I highly encourage guests in the area to go see the Angel Oak located at 3688 Oak Road, Charleston, SC 29455 just off Bohicket / Main Road. This 65 foot tall sprawling Oak is a magnificant example of nature and thought to be one of the oldest living things east of the Mississippi River. Entrance to see the Angel Oak is free of charge during regular operating hours.

Client Testimonials

  • A Charleston resident suggested a Traveling Ink concierge might be able to help me. It didn’t take long for me to realize that this was one of the best pieces of advice I could have received. My friends thought I was an organizational wizard even though I kept telling them it was Traveling Ink, not me.

    ~ Nicky H.

  • We so enjoyed our time in Charleston. Thank you for all your insight! I am recommending your services to everyone I know who is traveling to Charleston!

    ~Kathryn C.

  • Traveling Ink planned the three full days we would have in Charleston, how we would get from one place to another, places to eat, and what the costs would be. To add to the challenge, we had to change the day of one of the main attractions because rain had been predicted. They handled all the changes with out missing a step.

    ~ Harriett H.

  • These Charleston pros do a phenomenal job in any setting. Audra was our point person and is a pleasure to work with. She is laid back and can work with any request.
