Good tour

Marty_S, Jul 2023

Was good experience. Kinda surprised we walked right near the Sorrel -Weed house yet did not touch on haunted history there. Lane was very personable and good host.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thank you for your review. We are so happy to hear you had a good time on the tour with Lane. There is a lot of history to cover in downtown Savannah on a 90 minute tour. We have different tours in order to cover all of this in an honorable manner. If you'd like to learn more about the Sorrel-Weed house, check out our Dead of Night tour which includes a very informative and haunting stop there. If you'd like to book this experience, please call 855-999-9026.

The Mercer house and...

Suzanne_H, Mar 2023

The Mercer house and Turner Hamilton Inn were lovely Plus the parks Guide was super knowledgeable. Cccccccccccccccccccc

Fun thing to do at night in Savannah

Kim_L, Mar 2023

This tour was fun and Lane was our tour guide, she was pretty good of telling stories. We had a great time walking around the town in the dark and listening to ghost stories.

Dry humor didn’t appreciate alcohol on the tour

Shannon_L, Feb 2023

We had a good time but the tour guide had a very sarcastic and dry humor that not everyone can understand. Even though the tour says it is adults only and to bring your own drink she made a few comments about us having drinks that had a negative tone. We were certainly not out of control, we respected her time and stories, and we were an engaged group but she seemed to not approve of alcohol on the tour.

Meh….

Gabriella_B, Dec 2022

It was fine, but not very intriguing. Kind of on the boring side…The ghost stories weren’t very good.

Walking with the ghosts.

Susan_P, Oct 2022

Amber was very interesting and had great stories to share. Learned about Savannah’s history of murder and mayhem.

This was an amazing...

Bethany_P, Sep 2022

This was an amazing experience. But I would like to have gone through the cemetery and then gone to the jail on the other side by the playground.

Thumbs up

Christine_L, Aug 2022

Nice and easy walking tour with plenty of places to sit also. Enjoyed the haunted tales with a bit of humor to keep it light. Thumbs up

Waste of time and money

Mudhead_B, Jul 2022

This tour was boring and the presentation devoid of enthusiasm. We were very disappointed and walked away after 30 minutes.

Our tour guide Leonard...

Ashley_F, Jul 2022

Our tour guide Leonard was great, very knowledgeable and we enjoyed the tour with him. Tour did not end at Chippewa square though!

Response from Host, Jul 2022

We are so glad that you enjoyed your tour with Leonard! We always love to hear when our guides can educate and entertain at the same time. Thank you so much for your feedback! We hope to see you again soon.

The guide we had was...

Kimberly_B, May 2022

The guide we had was horrible. He just rambled on and on. We didn’t complete the tour. We left after 30 minutes

Response from Host, Jun 2022

It’s extremely unfortunate your guide provided you with this type of tour. It is completely unacceptable, and we assure you that is not the standard we set at our company. We appreciate all feedback, and we assure you we will use this for future tour improvement. To make up for this, we would like to offer you free tickets to use in any of our cities, without expiration, in hopes of giving you a much better experience.

Alex_H, May 2022

Sylus was an Excellent guide! Very knowledgeable and truthful. Very entertaining. Gave life to the characters he was telling stories about and great respect to the dead. The tour was the perfect length

Response from Host, May 2022

That’s awesome! Thanks for letting us know! We hope to see you again soon.

Ghost tour

DAVE_C, May 2022

It was an entertaining tour. Learning about the story that the book " Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" was based was a highpoint.

Response from Host, May 2022

Thank you for the rating! We're so glad you had a great time! We hope to see you again soon.

It was just okay

Gena_O, Apr 2022

This was more of a history tour than scary ghost tour. I would not recommend if you’re looking for a ghost tour.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Thank you for this feedback. We avoid using the word “scary” to describe our tours as it is highly subjective and we certainly don’t have any jump scares. However, the stories we tell on our tours are all deeply rooted in the local history, and the facts tend to be bone chilling on their own.

Very interesting experience

Ashley_F, Apr 2022

LeRoy was the best! We hope to see him tonight to show him some weird pictures we discovered! Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone and don't expect to find anything until your at home looking through all of your pictures.. it's crazy!

Response from Host, Apr 2022

We're so thrilled to hear you had such a wonderful time with Leroy! Thanks for joining us. We hope to see you on another tour soon!

Fun way to see the city!

rickfield1303, Apr 2022

Ghost tours are a fun way to see a new city and this was no exception. Our guide Luke was a dynamic story teller and made the evening fun.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

We're so glad you had a great time on your tour with Luke! Thank you for touring with us and we hope to see you again soon!

Luke the guide

Lucas_C, Mar 2022

Luke the tour guide was funny and very knowledgeable, also very cute 😉 I learned a lot about Savannah in this ghost tour.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Sounds like an amazing time! Thank you for coming with us on our tour. We hope to see you again soon.

Night in the hood.

Ed_H, Jul 2021

Fun time in Savanah. A little spooky. Some creepy stories with scary endings. Really like the historic contextual stories.

Response from Host, Jul 2021

Thank you for leaving this review and sharing your experience with us!

Great date night!

KyleWatson, Apr 2021

The tour was great. Our tour guide was very animated and knowledgeable about Savannah’s spooky past.

Response from Host, Apr 2021

Thank you for joining us and thank you for the great review!

a genuine ghost tour;

SHANNON_B, Nov 2020

The content was interesting; not cheesy, and our tour guide (Nicole) had the best disposition for sincere storytelling. Hands down- this walking tour was much better an the trolley ghost tour.

Response from Host, Dec 2020

Thank you for the great review of Nicole and the tour! We are glad that you found it interesting!
