This was my favorite walking tour in Savannah. Shannon was right on time, very professional, but mostly he was a great story teller and very knowledgeable. He has obviously spent time looking into the people and history of Bonaventure, and his love for his subjects is obvious! Shannon has also studied secret societies which played a big part both in the layout of Savannah and of the cemetery. The map of the cemetery was quite eye opening! Shannon was very friendly and fun, answered all our questions, and left us wanting more! The cemetery itself was beautiful and very interesting, but hearing the stories behind what we were seeing made it so much better. It was just a short drive from where we were staying by Forsythe Park, and Shannon's instructions for meeting were easy to follow. I highly recommend this tour!
My husband and I really enjoyed our tour of Bonaventure Cemetery with Shannon Scott. We would highly recommend this tour to all that are interested in the history of this beautiful cemetery, Shannon Scott was a great tour guide, he kept us interested and made us laugh too. Shannon truly made the history of Bonaventure Cemetery come alive, a master story teller for sure.
Fantastic way to enjoy a gorgeous piece of history Shannon Scott was amusing and very knowledgable. Only word of caution: be prepared for the heat. 2 hours in and we were all wilting a little but worth it all the while!
