Well presented insight into the history of the founding of Savanna the characters that shaped its future and the buildings that comprise its architecture. Would have loved it better if we had opportunities to visit some interiors

D was a great guide, knowledgeable about Savannah’s history, architecture, plant life, and culture. He answered all of our questions and offered interesting stories about the city and people who live here. The group was small and intimate, only 5 visitors, which made it even more fun. The pace was just right and there was even a stop partway through for folks who needed a drink or restroom break. We saw many highlights, and we received recs for other places to visit during our stay. Highly recommend.

A very good tour. The guide was knowledgeable and provided many details. The pace was right and accommodated our inability to walk fast, but got everything covered in the allotted time. The selection of which properties to discuss gave a broad look at Savannah history, both social and political - good discussions relating to the early history of Savannah and the revolutionary war.
