A great tour of the waterways of Savannah! Captains Ed and Phil were very friendly and shared interesting historical stories about the area-we saw eagles, dolphins, and enjoyed a beach landing on Wormsloe. We very much enjoyed our afternoon on the Intercoastal Waterway! This boating experience helps fund the clean up efforts in the local barrier islands! Communication was also very easy which we appreciated!
Every trip to Savannah should include some time spent on its beautiful waterways. Join us for a unique cruise of the Intracoastal Waterway, Wilmington and Skidaway rivers and Savannah's unique 'Moon River' district. You will see verdant maritime forests, opulent antebellum waterfront homes, victorian river resorts and turn-of-the-century fish-camps. On this private boat tour, you will be joined by a USCG licensed captain and a City of Savannah tour guide who will describe the rich history and topography of the area. Wildlife is abundant and we will be looking along the way for Bald Eagles, Osprey, and Atlantic Bottlenose Dolphin.
