Wonderful walk through Savannah - The tour guide (Champ) was very knowledgeable and friendly. The tour covered a lot of really awesome sights and beautiful squares. Additionally, I really appreciated the ear piece/headset set up! On walking tours sometimes it can be hard to hear the guide as you are moving around the city, but with his voice in your ear, you never miss any part of the tour. Would highly recommend as an introduction to Savannah.

A Wonderful Experience - This was a wonderful experience. Champ was our guide. He did a great job shepherding us through the piazza's and streets. He talked about Savannah history from its founding under Oglethorpe to WW2. And he pointed out the various trees, bushes and plants along the way. Definitely a must-do when you come to Savannah.
