Paschal was an incredible guide! He has lived in Savannah his entire life and has deep roots there. We really came to love this cemetery and appreciated learning more about the residents in the cemetery as well as the symbolism and history behind monument selections. We loved how he honored and respected cemetery residents and the land here. It is an incredible park! We highly recommend this tour.

Excellent tour- our guide Paschal was friendly, funny and knowledgeable. It's a bit of walking but not too much. Ground is uneven, we should have listened to the advice in the instructions to wear sneakers. They provided cold water and a quick break to sit, which was appreciated. Would definitely recommend!

Jessica was a great tour guide. She was knowledgeable and interesting and gave us anecdotes and facts we wouldn’t have gotten on a self-tour. I highly recommend this tour for getting the full Bonaventure Cemetery experience. We’ve already recommended it to another couple staying in our hotel.
