Took this tour with our two twenty something sons (who later confessed they expected to be bored) and we all agreed it was fabulous! It made us want to come back to Savannah to take the Ghost Tour as well. TC should really be on the stage - his recounting of Savannah's history was engaging as well as enlightening. We also appreciated his personal attention to each member of the group and his vast knowledge of Savannah past and

My friends and I just loved this walking tour! T.C. was a great guide and it was so clear to see his passion and love for the city of Savannah. It was great having the ear buds so that you weren’t having to crowd together and strain to listen. I loved how he used the iPad to not just tell us about people from history but to give us faces to go with the names. The tour was just so informative and we had a really great time! Would highly recommend!
