What people are saying about Savannah

Amazing tour of Savannah! This is a small group tour (we had 2 others with us) which was great, the small group allowed us to chat with our guide and ask questions as the tour went along. It’s also very convenient that the company arranges everything such as dinner and the boat cruise, it made for a very relaxing and stress-free evening. The vehicle was also nice, clean and specious. Highly recommend this tour!

Great tour. If it’s cool make sure that you have a coat or jacket. The tour guide was engaging and funny. We were able to purchase a drink in a souvenir glass and food. The food and drink were expensive but we enjoyed them. Get there early to get a seat by the window or a choice seat on the top deck.

Both our bus and boat tour guides were excellent. It was very obvious to us that they both love the beloved city of Savannah. They were both very knowledgeable and entertaining as well. I would recommend this tour to all my friends

Enjoyable cruise! A lot of history! Narrator was excellent! Would definitely do it again!

Smooth ride, fun and engaging narration, great overview of the Savannah waterfront.
