Wycieczka na cmentarz Savannah Bonaventure

Przegląd

Bonaventure shouldn't just be toured, it should be storied! As Shannon Scott or his gifted protoge stroll you though a dreamy outdoor art, life & death museum with spectacular natural splendor, you'll be awestruck by not only the depth of stories, but hidden meanings of art and symbolism that adorns graves and how so much of it connects not just to Savannah but the greater world! There is no touring Savannah without Bonaventure and we are the story crew most dedicated to proving that well known local truth!

You know I like the information I get from Shannon Scott since I have booked tours with him twice. I love all the information he gave us and everything was so interesting. If you like history of old Savannah, the inside of the movie "In the Garden Of Good and Evil", you will love his tours. He does not rush you, answering any questions you might ask and adding alot of information you would never believe would be part of the history of the "residents" of Bonaventure Cemetery. The first time I paid a visit to Bonaventure, I was with a friend of mine and it was our first time in Savannah. We drove out to Bonaventure and toured the cemetery and wondered at all the magnificent markers and statues we found there. However, we knew nothing about the history of this magnificent place. The second time I went back to Savannah was in March, 2012. I found Shannon's card and decided I would hire him as a guide for our cemetery tour. My husband was with me this time. We were blown away at the amazing facts that he was able to provide about the residents and why the statues were there and the stories behind them. We were so impressed with him, that we returned to Savannah in Sept. of this year and I booked another tour with Shannon for my husband and myself. We were not disappointed. He was able to provide us with alot more interesting facts that he didn't have time for the last time. If I go back to Savannh, you can bet Shannon will be a part of our trip because his knowledge of this city can't be beat. I have booked other tours, but none compare to Shannon Scott. Please do not think that he merely makes things up as he goes along. He is very sincere and he wants to please all his clients and is more than ready to answer any questions you might have. We are impressed. Don't book a trip to Savannah, GA without making Shannon Scott and his imense knowledge a part of it. Sandra B. Scottsboro, AL

I'm sorry for being so late in making this review, but it has been on my mind all this time and I couldn't pass it up. We were in Savannah,Ga for a week at New Year's. While there, we hired Shannon Scott of Bonaventure Journeys to take us on a tour of Bonaventure Cemetery. It was the most interesting and comprehensive tour that we could possibly have asked for. He knew more than I thought any one would. He made it very interesting and "alive". I would recommend him to any one. He was worth much more than his fee.

We booked the Bonaventure tour with Scott on the suggestion of a client who had done the daytime tour with him. It was well worth the cost for the tour! Shannon is a great story teller, even if you are not completely convinced of the validity of the stories. It appears obvious that Shannon spends time continuing to research the cemetery, it's residents and history, as well as the history of Savannah. This was a great way to whet our appetites to come back to explore more in the future...either with Shannon or on our own. We also opted for the dinner option that is offered with Shannon at the New Sisters of the South restaurant. The food was mediocre at best, the service less than mediocre and the additional information Shannon shared had nothing to do with the cemetery...rather, it was a little bit of history about the Free Masons and a lot about Shannon's interests in "secret societies." While Shannon is great to chat with, this additional information and the food is not worth the extra expense...not with so many other great dining options available in Savannah.

While I appreciate this client's participation, the review is one of very mixed messages and frankly forces me to question how much they were really paying attention during the tour or the dinner. The Victorian funerary & Secret Society objets d'art on display have everything to do with Bonaventure Cemetery. Granted, some are from other fraternal orders in other states, they are however, related to the same brother & sisterhoods in Savannah, practicing the universal disciplines of those orders. I would contest that few people ever get to see Victorian ritual robes of the Masons or if they have, recognize what they are or understand their purposes or how they might tie into funeral rituals. The same goes for the other relics on hand during the dinner. As to the comment that my event isn't worth the money and that there are superior events to be experienced, I would challenge this individual to name these events and actually find the remark laughable. Let's see, a cemetery authority in Savannah for over 20 years, for the first time in history, offers the public exclusive access to Bonaventure after it closes, stories them for 3 hours, breaks bread with them, sharing Victorian antiques from his personal collection for another hour, and all for $35? I'll let the readers decide on that one, but assure you, it can't be had. In fact, come Fall, for those who do understand the esoteric, educational & entertainment value, the price is going up. As to the service & food at Sisters of The New South? Well, this is something I'm not in control of from minute to minute, so apologies for any discontent. I selected them as my event partner because of the fact that they are authentic long time soul divas preparing that fare in old world ways, as opposed to more televised and corporate versions of that in Savannah. I have confidence in them overall, but like any restaurant, they have their off moments, but other than this one criticism, heard nothing but praise from the evening in question.
