Great historical tour! - We had a great stroll with Zach! This tour focused mainly on Savannah during the founding and the civil war. Very interesting!

Excellent tour, learned a lot! - This tour was great! Our guide, Zach, was very knowledgable and enthusiastic! He thoroughly explained the history of the area in an engaging way and answered all of the questions. We saw quite a few interesting spots on the tour, and Zach explained the history behind them, gave details on the architecture, and knew a lot about the area as a whole. The group was a good size, not too big. The tour started on time with no issues. The meeting point was easy to find and near a parking garage, which was convenient. The pacing of the tour was good; I never felt like we lingered too long in one spot but still learned a lot. If you are concerned about the summer heat, this tour largely goes through areas with a lot of shade and has a brief break in the AC halfway through, which was quite nice. I definitely recommend this tour!

Fun informative tour! - Zach did an outstanding job! He delivered a lot of information in a fun way. He waited for my husband and me to begin. We were late in getting to our meeting place. Thanks Zach!

Great tour - This tour was a great thing to do when we got to Savannah, gave us a little bit of history on the area and got us directed as to where we wanted to do and what else we wanted to see. Zack was personable, knowledgeable and funny- kept us all laughing

Savannah with teenagers - Great family trip, good amount of things for teens, not really for small children. Lots of history, art, shopping. Really great that you can walk anywhere in the city. Night life is fun too, lots of restaurants & bars. Definitely more for couples or families with teens. Ghost tours are great, lots of shopping. Definitely overpriced but as expected. Vic’s was not worth the hype or price at all, but the Candy kitchens, ice cream & gelato shops, wings at Wet Willie’s definitely made up for it! Didn’t do the riverboat tours as so many reviews said they weren’t worth the price & food wasn’t great. The trolleys are a great option for anyone in your group unable to walk long distances. Riverfront view is definitely worth it! Overall amazing trip & we will be back!

Best Guide named Zak - Guide was Zak…. Superior hour and a half walking tour of Savannah. Zak was informative, extremely well spoken, SO engaging and personable, incredibly interesting among a gamut of relevant topics. Most importantly, Zak was hugely entertaining. Cannot recommend more highly.

Good brief tour - Very interesting and enjoyable tour although it started out a little shakey. Tour guide never introduced himself until we asked his name and never asked our names or where we were from even though there was only 4 of us in the group. He also looked like he rolled right out of bed to do our tour. However, as we walked around he was very very interesting both in his knowledge and his stories. We wound up having a very informative tour. It was only 90 min but perfect for what we wanted to learn about the history of Savannah. I'm only giving 4 stars though because of how it started out. With a few tweeks he could definitely be an amazing tour guide.

Tour cancelled - Unable to rate as the tour time was changed and we had a conflict. Understand things come up. Took the trolley tour instead which was fun.
