Spent the morning with KT O'Brien (who else is going to give an Irish History Walking. Tour but someone name O'Brien?). She was funny, informative, responsive and just a delight to guide us. Our group consisted of 13 guys, 60+ yo, who went to high school together and are fond of history trips in drinking cities (and the other way around, as well). KT indulged our curiousity and easily held our attention. And, as a bonus at the end, she dropped us off right near a wonderful Irish bar.

Guide didn’t show. Called Viator to find out what was going on. Guide called and reschedule for the afternoon. We changed all of our plans for that day and some for the next only to have them completely cancel the tour.

Huge apologies for this confusion on our end. The first tour was not originally scheduled to go and the second time guide was unable to make it. Full refund and responsibility taken on this end

This tour was the highlight of my trip, KT was incredible, she absolutely makes this tour, she is a joy to be around and learn from, if anyone wanted to learn about the Irish in Savannah this tour is it, how the Irish ended up in Savannah, how they settled, what they did. There is Irish dotted throughout Savannah this tour pulls it altogether and at the end you'll have a deeper understanding of the Irish in Savannah. What makes this tour really special is KT, her own family history, she is an incredible person.
