Jac was amazing!!! She was prompt and full of energy. The tour actually started a few minutes early. She made sure to know everyone's name and offered us bug spray. She was knowledgeable and was able to identify with the wide age range of participants. She even stopped at a local ice cream parlor to let us buy some treats. I enjoyed the history and would do the experience again. Jac is a small business and I hope she thrives. Xoxo, O.G.

My husband and I (recent permanent residents), and 2 of my sisters, took the History Tour and enjoyed it immensely! So when my daughter & friend and son-in-law & friend visited, we sent them on the tour as well! They were equally enthralled. Jac is a treasure and so knowledgeable & enthusiastic about Tybee Island history. This tour is a MUST for anyone desiring a fun and educational adventure when visiting Tybee Island. Highest recommendations!
