What we do differently from other Golf Cart Tours is we cover much more ground riding into Charlotte's West Corridor rather than staying solely in Uptown Charlotte. We include stops in the Charlotte's oldest active Black neighborhood, Biddleville, McCrorey Heights and Brooklyn which is unique to our experience. This open-air golf cart tour not only educates but also supports local Black businesses, connecting you with entrepreneurs making a difference. Ideal for history enthusiasts and those looking to explore Charlotte's cultural heritage, this intimate journey promises to inform and inspire.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
This will be on the corner of Mavis Way and Camp Road next to the company called, "Good Postage". You're welcome to explore Camp North End area or wait at the bench on the corner if you arrive before the cart is there.
