Don't be discouraged by /u/Daxos157. S/he clearly doesn't understand what the word "literally" means, but there are quite a lot of posts here that feature someone like you who is coming to visit who is looking for some advice on things to do and places to go. The reason you didn't see them when you scrolled down, is they ALWAYS get down-voted into oblivion (just like your post).

But don't be discouraged. The auto moderator generated an auto-post with lots of good information. I suggest you scroll through seven or eight pages on this sub, and you'll see lots of cool stuff. And I'm sure you would find that /u/Daxos157 is friendly and pleasant like pretty much all Charlestonians if you meet them in person. People like to make fun of tourists, but most Charlestonians understand that tourism is very important to the economy. There's lots of great stuff to see and do in Cjarleston, and you won't have any trouble finding it.

The Yorktown is cool, but unless you're really into Naval history, I think it is too much of a time vampire if you're only coming for a weekend. A good starting point is an organized tour. I'd suggest a walking tour (try https://bulldogtours.com/). They usually cost around $25, and are well-worth that. I'd prefer that over one of the carriage tours, but those are also very good (the tour guides have to pass a test to qualify) and roughly the same price. If that's too pricey for you, start your trip with a visit to the Charleston Area Convention and Visitors Bureau for some ideas within your budget.

If you're looking for a headstart, you might pick up Fodor's Guide Book on Amazon. $1.99 Kindle edition.
