A tour not to miss - We needed a day that toned down the walking we were doing daily. This tour was very relaxing, informative and fun. Stefanie, our driver and guide, did a super job to telling us information the entire time. She really loves the area, and it shows. The first stop was the lighthouse. We had plenty of time for photos before heading the the Crab Shack. The food was good but the service was slow and we were late getting back to the bus. The last stop was the boat ride out to see the dolphins. We watched dolphins swimming around near the breakwater for quite awhile. They were active and precious. We were lucky as a cargo ship was coming in and the dolphins were having a ball jumping in front of the ship. The captain of the ship invited our captain to move closer for a better view. It was amazing. I'm sorry I don't remember our captain and first mate's names but our boat, #3, was well guided, filled with silly jokes, and most educational. It was a perfect day; the weather was great!

Book this Tour - Loved this tour!! The guide picked us up in front of our hotel at the designated time. There was only 4 people on this tour which made it more personable. Our guide told us interesting facts about Savannah and Tybee Island. Our first stop was Ft. Pulaski. The tour starts with a brief film about Ft. Pulaski and then you get to tour on your own. I learned so much and loved that we had enough time to tour it a slow pace. Next stop was the Lighthouse and then the museum. We left there and headed to the Pier. We had time to eat lunch and shop. We stayed at this stop for a couple of hours. I wanted to stay longer. We headed back to our hotel. My mother forgot her shawl on the trolley and the driver was so kind to get it for us. I can’t remember his name, but we took the tour on 2/14/24. Loved everything about this tour!!! A must do while in Savannah!

Touring Tybee (with turtles!) - It's the off-season, and it's been unusually cold, so it was really worried that I would be the only person on the tour so it would get canceled. I was the only person on the tour, but Chris ran the tour anyway, and I'm so glad he did! Chris is also very personable guide; he shared lots of information about the area, and we chatted the entire time we were traveling between destinations. Fort Pulaski was fascinating (I say this as someone who loves history, but is not always the biggest fan of military history). Unfortunately, the lighthouse was closed for repairs (probably too foggy that day to see much anyway), but Chris pivoted and offered to take me to the Marine Science Center instead--so many baby sea/marsh turtles! The beach is also gorgeous, and I loved having a few hours just to walk and chillax. It was my favorite day of my trip to Savannah.

December tour - The tour was amazing. Picked us up from our Airbnb right on time. The SUV is nice, clean, spacious. We went to the fort, lighthouse, pier/beachfront. The schedule of the day was outlined in detail which is nice and we were given so much extra knowledge and facts about tybee the ride down and back. Made the day extra special and would def recommend.

Day Trip to Tybee Island - Our tour guide, Stephanie, did a great job on our day tour. We had a shorter tour of Savannah to start. We were given a pick up near our hotel to join the group at their tour office. We started with lunch at The Crab Shack. It is a quirky restaurant. They have a baby alligator pond that is interesting to watch! A little too much time here. Then we went to the Dolphin Tour which was the best part of the tour. Very enjoyable! Then we ended the day with a trip to a lighthouse. You had a choice to tour the lighthouse, go to the beach, go to a nature center, or get a drink at a bar. We were dropped off near our hotel. The only thing I didn’t like was that the tour was a on a trolley type bus. Not very comfortable seating for a day tour.
