Rainy Day Tour - Tim Rowell was full of information regarding the cemetery, the people buried there, and what is truth versus fiction about the people. There were eight of us on the tour, which allowed many questions. We were provided or offered umbrellas(it showered a few times, but did not last long), bottled water, and a restroom break. Walking is required, but it is at a slow pace. We really enjoyed Tim and would highly recommend his tour. Tim also picked us up at each place we were staying at in the historic district, delivered us back or dropped us off at another spot in the historic district.

Should be required for any visitor to Savannah - The entire experience from booking to drop off and follow up was amazing. Booking was easy, communication was clear. Pick up was punctual, and we even got a mini tour of the surrounding areas between downtown Savannah and the cemetery. The actual tour of the cemetery was fascinating, filled with a historians perspective. Highly recommend.

Fantastic tour - could not recommend more highly. - Wonderful tour that started with us being picked up outside our Inn. The drive out to the cemetery was very quick and a nice drive out there. The tour itself was great - very informative and interesting. 2.5 hrs flew by and we really enjoyed every minute.

Great tour! - This tour was very informative and interesting. Our tour guide was engaging and deeply researched the information he presented. He also voluntarily dropped off participants to locations of their choice which was kind. If you like history, you will enjoy this tour. Great tour! m

Exceeded expectations - WOW! Totally exceeded expectations. Couldn't have been easier, between the communication beforehand to the door-to-door service. Not only is Bonaventure Cemetery a beautiful place to walk around, Tim enhanced the tour with loads of historical stories and tidbits. He loves what he does! I learned a lot about Savannah and took some amazing pictures too.

Dash Tours for courtesy and professionalism - Dash Tours was great in communicating the pick up time from my hotel. The 15-20 minute drive to Bonaventure Cemetery was expertly handled by Tim our leader. We drove through the newer area of the cemetery with Tim providing commentary. Upon parking in the older part, Tim gave us historical facts about the markers, monuments and sometimes a brief background of the bereaved. The respect shown for this sacred place by Tim is admirable. We stayed on schedule and were delivered back to our hotels as promised.
