A lot of information! - A lot of information! Very informed and interactive guide, Dan. I would suggest, since often stated "look it up", that have available an outline of places stopped and written copy of suggested topics to "look up" for later review.

Engaging Guide and Fun Tour! - I knew a little about Savannah's haunted history - but our tour guide Dan was SUCH a wealth of knowledge. He was an engaging and fun storyteller, it was obvious how much he enjoyed doing these tours. Truly fascinating and made you stop and think about everything you see! Walking was minimal and would but suitable for most. Would absolutely recommend to others. Thank you Dan!

Ghost tour! - Tyler was our ghost tour guide and he was amazing! Super funny and super creepy lmao but in a good way! He was very informational. My husband and I went to Savannah for our first not knowing anything about the history and we now know so much!

Don't hesitate, just book it! - We had such an incredible evening ghost tour with our guide. He lives locally with his family and is very passionate about history. You will immediately be immersed in each story, the sadness of those who have died and the excitement of the journey. I thought our guide really focused on respecting the dead and teaching us the history of the town and other war torn regions. We would absolutely do this again, and hope to get the same guide! I think it was Dan! Just not Lt Dan 🤣

Great Tour - Tyler was an animated and captivating storyteller. The tour was amazing. I learned a lot of about the city. The tour seemed like 30 minutes, so if you’re daunted by the 90 minute agenda, don’t be. It goes so fast and is very entertaining. This was a great historical taste of so many of the things that make Savannah special. It was a the right mix of walking and stopping to listen.

Would Highly Recommend - Great pace. Lots of interesting stories, and easy to follow along. After walking around Savannah for almost three days prior, it was great to fill in the history of places we’d passed a dozen times.

Phenomenal Tour Guide! - Dan was awesome! He knew the history so well, and he had a captivating voice. This was not a cheesy tour, it was an educational one. Check out their Instagram to get a glimpse as to what the tour might include.

Ghosts upstaged by the tour guide. - The tour guide was just too much. Felt like he made it more about him doing his “bits.” He also spoke so fast, you couldn’t follow the stories. We left before the tour was finished.
