It's easy to fall in love with Greenville and its surrounding towns. A stroll down one of the many Main Streets will bring you to local gems, and storefront after storefront invites you to discover what unique merchandise, services, artwork, and great food await. Though there's plenty to keep you occupied along each city's main focal point, make no mistake—there are all kinds of surprises waiting just a short walk away. Put on that FitBit, Garmin, or Apple Watch and explore Main Street or some of the lesser-known gateways that will introduce you to even more of what our alluring cities offer.
Prefer someone else to do the guiding? Try a walking or driving tour with local historian John Nolan, who actually came up with the original walking tours above and founded Greenville History Tours.
Author of A Guide to Historic Greenville, South Carolina, and American Palate's Lost Restaurants of Greenville, travel writers have featured Nolan's tours in publications ranging from the Boston Globe and the Chicago Tribune to the New York Post and National Geographic Traveler.
