What a fun time! We had family visiting and were originally bummed that only an early tour (5 pm) had openings. But, as it turns out we really enjoyed doing the tour while it was still light out. Much easier to photograph the beauty of Savannah. Our guide was knowledgeable and we learned a lot.

Our guide was a great storyteller and kept the group captivated throughout the tour with creepy stories about Savannah’s terrifying history! Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic time. This was a last minute booking for us and I am so glad we did it. We all loved the stories and his story telling was phenomenal. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed all the history and the views. I would have liked to have had a notepad so I could look back and review the information.

Aside from a few.drunk ladies, the tour was lovely. Perfect ambiance, the guide's voice had a perfect cadence ti inform on spooky history. The hour and a half was full of informative local haunts and lore, as well as lots of wonderful picture taking. Would use the same guide again, but maybe not the same tour as I want to learn new things.

Very good tour and covered a lot of sites without being overwhelming. Dan is knowledgeable and professional. Great stories about interesting sites. He greeted each of us and connected with us pretty quickly-he even knew of a pizza restaurant in our hometown in NC. Highly recommend!

Great tour! We learned a lot about the history without it being too spooky. Loved every part of it! It was a good amount of walking so wear comfortable shoes.

Our tour guide, Kelby was wonderful; she was in training and did a very good job presenting the history and haunts of Savannah. My children enjoyed the tour and were very enthralled with the experience. We learned a lot of really neat things; a must do experience!

Informative and entertaining! Out tour guide, Dan, presented some of Savannah’s grisly and gruesome history during a great walking tour where he described the who, what, where and when!
