Good for people who want a quick tour to learn facts about Tybee island Tour is about 1 hr and 15 mintues. you get one main photo stop at the light house but if you want to have other photos you can ask and they will let you. But the only official stop for a photo is at the lighthouse. To start the tour we met at the Sugar Shack Ice cream shop. I was able to park in the customer parking area. Parking is a little tight on the island so make sure you park in an area not reserved or restricted.

What a wonderful ride. Gordon was a delight. His love of the area came through! He gave us just the right amount of information and even took our picture in front of the lighthouse! We learned a great deal about the island and will return.
