This was a very thorough tour that we booked for 7/31 (9-11pm). The tour guide was quite knowledgeable about Savannah's residents from earlier times, and provided interesting accounts which blended history with other worldly encounters. This is our 4th "ghost" tour and our family enjoyed it along with our well behaved dog, Juneau.🐾👻

Interesting tour! I love the headphones that are provided so you can hear everything your tour guide says. You don't feel like you need to be at the front of the tour to hear.

Learned some very good history. Some things we knew were not factually true as we’ve studied the history of Savannah. For future reference Ashley shouldn’t say the firefighters sit outside the fire station and “drink beer”. Whether or not it was a joke, it was tasteless for those who risk their lives for our safety.
