Dee is amazing! Take the tour. - Dee was the perfect quintessential gentleman of true southern charm. He was prompt and ready for the tour. Our group was small only 7 people. There was a slight drizzle of rain during the tour but he did not rush . He answered any questions we had. His knowledge of Savannah was unbelievable and his knowledge of botany was an added plus. I learned a lot in this tour. Just at the end of our tour the skies opened up and the rain poured. We didn’t mind because we had heard Savannah needed the rain. Dee- thank you for the amazing tour. PS - we hope you enjoyed your visit with your mom on Mother’s Day.

Pretty Savannah in the rain - Lots of facts and historical stories, some of it more interesting than others. Very pretty scenery of Savannah. Tour goes rain or shine and we had a major thunderstorm, had to take shelter so lost about 25 minutes of the tour. But we enjoyed it.

Well-Timed, Well-Guided Walking Tour - This was a great two-hour walking tour. I chose it because it starts at 9 AM — it is not that hot, the streets aren’t crowded yet, and you still have the whole day free afterward. I really liked our guide, Dee — he was knowledgeable, had a good sense of humor, and shared some excellent tips on what to see and where to eat.

Wonderful guide! - Absolutely five star – Dee is so genuine. We learned so many interesting facts about Savannah and the history, loved all the interesting things you would not find on a larger tour. We were a party of eight people, and all of us thought the tour exceeded our expectations -mainly because it was so interesting but also our very low-key and amazing tour guide.
