Fantastic Bonaventure & Wormsloe tour! - We wanted to experience some of the sights and history outside of Savannah’s historic district. This tour was fantastic! Two beautiful locales steeped in history with an amazing lunch stop in between. Our guide, Dennis, was a wealth of knowledge. He was fun, entertaining, and kept us on schedule. The complimentary pick up/drop off at our hotel was an added bonus. Highly recommend!

N/a - Excellent . Dennis was a very knowledgeable tour guide pretty much a walking encyclopedia eventhough the amount of info that was shared was a bit overwhelming and the amount of time on the bus was a bit excessive. But he was so kind to drop us off at our hotel I must say this really made up for any negatives that I may have been able to come up with. Overall excellent!

Excellent tour - I was picked up and dropped off at my hotel right on time with clear instructions. Tim, our guide and driver, was excellent. He told a ton of interesting stories about Savannah's history and former residents. He also kept the energy up despite the scorching Georgia sun! The tour was well-organized and well-run.

Ok tour, not great. - Tour was ok. Give us more places to visit in the cemetery. I also needed to know more about the history of Wormsloe and Cemetery and less about check books and Byrd’s toasted pumpkin cookies. Crazy rain too- not the guide’s fault. Guide also needs to mic up.

Do not waste your money or time - Was not what we expected, all history we had heard on earlier city tours with little to no haunting or ghosts stories
