Great tour in a beautiful city - We took several walking tours across the south, and this was our favorite. Partly that's because of the location (it's hard to beat historic Savannah) and partly because of the great guide. The guides clearly spend time learning and studying the history of the city and the area. We enjoyed the overview of each location, including the history of the immediate location, the city, and the larger area. There is a lot of history over time, and the guides walked us through much of it, and fielded many questions. We learned a lot about the architecture, the plants, and of course, the history. We went as a family (two adults and a 10-year-old). Our 10yo kept up just fine, and took in a lot of the history. The content is pretty family friendly. I think very young kids would find this long and might not enjoy the history as much. This tour really brought historic Savannah to life for us, highly recommended!

This tour was... - This tour was educational, entertaining, and paced just right. Ashley was an excellent tour guide. She delivered the story of Savannah and its notable figures in a smart, articulate, and lightly humorous way. She also did a nice job of engaging with our kids and keeping them interested the whole two hours. She’s a red-headed devil in the best way!

Delightful Walking Tour - Our walking tour with Ashley was wonderful. The ear pieces she provided made it easy to hear despite the usual city noises and size of our group. The walking pace was comfortable and the 2 hour duration was just right. But it was her charming personality and wit, along with extensive knowledge of Savannah’s storied history that made it a memorable experience. She shared historical pictures on her iPad, welcomed questions from the group, and suggested things to do and see while in Savannah.
