Excellent walk through the historic area of Savannah. It was nice to have a small group where we could ask questions during the tour.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and witty, made the jaunt pleasurable. Covered a lot of area, so wear comfortable shoes. Lots of interesting history in Savannah. There is a similar walking history tour; this one covers the same area and history; take this one.

We had the best tour guide- incredibly kind, funny, and knowledgeable. We all learned so much about Savannah, wish we had booked for our first day of the trip.

It's so helpful to get to know a new city with a guided tour. And Savannah is a beautiful town with lots to learn about within an easy walk.

Raymond_B, Mar 2025
This walking tour was a wonderful introduction to Savannah’s rich history and beautiful architecture. Our guide was knowledgeable and passionate, sharing fascinating stories that brought the city’s past to life. The route took us through some of Savannah’s most iconic squares and historic landmarks, making for a scenic and informative experience.
The only reason for four stars instead of five is that the tour felt a bit long in some parts, and a little more time for questions or breaks would have been nice. That said, it was a fantastic way to see the city, and I’d definitely recommend it to history lovers!

Our guide was knowledgeable, witty and a good storyteller. We toured the historic center of Savannah during the weekend everyone was in town celebrating Saint Patrick’s Day.
