Single-handedly the best fossil hunting experience out there in terms of quality and quantity. I had Caleb tour me for my first day of my double decker and Josh for the 2nd day. On the first day I landed 2 species I never had in my collection and a specific find that isnt common in Florida. Caleb was helpful and very knowledgeable of the prehistory of the area and also gave me pointers for better sifting and identification. On the 2nd day I had Josh accompany me in the lightning site and boy was it a blast! He helped prep the pit with the excavator and showed me the methods to pull out teeth from the clay layer and provided all kinds of accommodations to make the experience even better. I sadly did not find the biggest nor the largest finds but that can be for another time I decide to do the tour again. I felt like a guest rather than a customer with Palmetto Fossil Excursions and I cannot thank them enough for the experience and customer service!

We went to the lightning dig 2 days in a row and had the pleasure of working with Tara, Matt, Josh, and Caleb. They made sure we had tools, air, and shade as they put us on teeth!!! They enjoy what they do and are excited to share their knowledge. They help to dig and any tooth they find they give to their customers! They are down to earth, hard working people and we will go back in a heartbeat!!! Thanks to all!

10/10 recommend! I recently booked a 4 hour pit dig and can’t express how amazing it was for me and my family. The guides were absolutely amazing and insanely knowledgeable about all our finds. I will definitely book another dig next time I’m in Charleston.
