Rich Savannah, Georgia History

Ken was an amazing and knowledgeable tour guide who kept the interest of all those on the tour ages 17 to 70! I came to Savannah knowing nothing of it's history and am leaving with a deep appreciation of it's roots in American history, diverse culture, host to the arts and so much more.

Rocking Savannah with Rocky

Rocky was our guide for Savannah’s most heinous crimes and pub crawl. We had a great time and Rocky is very animated and knowledgeable. We had a great group and enjoyed a drink after at a speakeasy where I have my very first Bees Knees drink, quite a fun night!

Tim was absolutely...

Tim was absolutely amazing. He was very knowledgeable and informative. He supplied water and bug spray for all in the group. It was a lifesaver. Transportation to and from the cemetery was so convenient. We were picked up and dropped off just across the street from where we were staying. I would definitely recommend this tour. Top notch experience.

Our guide was friendly,...

Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and funny. She kept the stories interesting while being "spooky" but not too scary. The use of the earphones was great as I could hear everything being said, without worry of missing part of the stories due to background noise or distance between me and the guide. Highly recommend for anyone with an interest in learning about the supernatural side of Savannah.

Walking better than riding to see Savannah

Walking tour much better than the bus tour we took in the past. Our guide, Ann, was excellent. She knows everything about Savannah. The food was very good, also, and together equaled a meal. Ann offers another walking tour with a different itinerary...we will try to take that one in the future.

If you’re fretting over which tour to take, stop: TAKE THIS TOUR!!

Traveling to Savannah for a solo birthday trip in September 2025, I booked this tour and loved every single moment. Learning about Savannah was fascinating, the food was awesome at every stop, and I made fast friends with our little group. I loved it so much, I booked another tour for my parents and I to enjoy together on a short jaunt to Savannah, May 2026. It was another perfect, informative, tasty, interesting, laugh-filled day, with beautiful sights, diverse foods to try, great drinks, the best company, and the greatest professional tour guide in Savannah, Christina. I cannot say enough about Christina. She is an amazing guide, fun to be around and learn from, open and kind, and her love for Her City radiates. Pay attention! Everything she says is packed with historical intrigue or knee-slapping hilarity, and often times both! Thank you for an absolutely wonderful day! My folks were still beaming about it, hours after the tour was over. I am so grateful for the memories made today.

Fantastic food and history tour

This was a fantastic food, city and history tour. We did this our 1st day in Savannah and it was a perfect introduction to the city. The tastings were excellent and varied, and well paced with walking and exploring in between. Our guide, Cindy was a local wealth of knowledge and very engaging. Could not have been better! Highly recommend.

Savannah Supernatural Haunted Walking Tour

Christopher_M, Apr 2026

Tying it Together

Jodie was a great guide. In a noisy city, with tours everywhere, he was loud enough to not miss anything. We did it our last night so for us it tied together a number of other activities including seeing Gracie’s grave and hearing about Saved by the Bell. It also painted an interesting picture of how the thriving, cute Savannah of today was much different from the Civil War to late 20th Century. A great story teller and enjoyed an evening walk through the downtown.

Great small group overview tour of Savannah

In about 2 hours, Dee provided us with an excellent orientation to the city layout, history , interesting buildings and squares. His presentation was well paced and peppered with great stories and good humor. He made helpful suggestions for other places to visit in and around Savannah and also for places to eat. We highly recommend this tour and Dee -especially if it’s your first visit Savannah. We also greatly prefer small group tours to be able to interact with the guide and not drag around with headphones and 20-30 other people.

Savannah Haunted Pub Crawl Walking Tour

Greg_P, Mar 2026

A fun way to learn some history of Savanna

Me and my wife have never been to Savannah, family suggested we go on a ghost tour. So we decided on the pub crawl ghost tour and we’re glad we did, in doing so we learned a lot about the history of Savannah and learning of our surroundings to help us get around after the tour. My wife did have an uneasy experience in one of the bars, saying she felt a presence and was kind of freaked out about it. Our tour guide Sam was knowledgable and funny. We had a great time with everyone and we definitely recommend the tour!
