Chilly Morning Midnight Sites Tour - CON: WEATHER - I’m going to start with the con because there is only one and it had to do with the weather and NOTHING to do with the tour operator. My tour date & time 1/20/25 @ 9 am was an unseasonably cold morning for Savannah which turned into a private tour (yay me!) Due to the cold and wearing gloves I didn’t take many photos to share or notes. PROS: - I showed up super early as I was coming from Pooler, my guide Ryan arrived 10-15 mins prior to our 9 am departure wearing credentials; he was easy to spot & engage with. - We quickly learned I was on a solo tour (cancelations due to cold.) I feel there were more stops and historical information that was shared along the way than advertised. This was GREAT! - Ryan went into “Midnight” detail by aligning the author’s detail in the book and comparing it to not only the movie but by talking about he & his wife’s extensive research of the facts from the story. Some discrepancies are easily explained by moving a book to a Hollywood movie. He went beyond by explaining details of some characters, events, and their time discrepancies which can partially be researched at the Georgia Historical Society, where he pointed out to me (located a short walk from the Armstrong Mansion.) PRO PRO PRO: - Ryan talked a little about his company and the extent of the research he & his wife follow-thru with to develop tours. I often travel the world and look for authentic experiences often “going it alone.” My opinion of the professionalism and dedication to research, to be able to ensure a true historical tour providing facts and comparing it to the fiction and the Hollywood embellishment is the embodiment of an amazing tour guide. If you love Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil then you will appreciate this tour!

Delightful ‘Garden’ Party - Ryan led an amazing intimate tour of the highlighted scenes of importance from the book. He filled in fact with the fiction and wove a more complete story surrounding the investigation, trial and life of Jim Williams and the social lives of the native Savannahins from the novel. Great tour and was very happy to have booked it! Thanks Ryan!!

Knowledgeable and Friendly guide - Ryan gave me a super-interesting tour of Savannah based on the locations in the John Berendt book. He has clearly read the book several times and watched the movie, and tied the locations in with his account of the story. Thoroughly professional and enjoyable.

Girls trip to Savannah - Ryan was an excellent tour guide! On time, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the story of Jim Williams. He also threw in many stories of downtown Savannah and the people as well. He did not read off script had everything memorized and was so good at what he did. Everyone in our group thought he was excellent!
