Per one customer who booked the Bonaventure Cemetery & Wormsloe State Historic Site Tour, "Excellent service. We were picked up right at our hotel at exactly 9am by Dennis. Dennis was the most amazing, friendly and knowledgeable tour guide I swear I have ever had on a tour. Not a single note in hand, and his memory of dates, names and history was actually truly astounding. I actually asked him if he used to be a history teacher. His sense of humor and southern charm were very genuine. Loved him!!!"
