She made it fun and interesting. - I was so tired before the tour started so I was nervous that I wouldn't be able to keep up with group, But Vanessa walked at a comfortable pace, she was so upbeat and knowledgeable, it was a very nice experience. Beautiful walk through Savannah. She had so many stories and her delivery with some comical details added were great! 5stars!

Geri and friends tour Savannah - cannot find enough words to say how wonderful this tour was. Wayne communicated so well with us on pick and drop of information as added bonus he drove us thru some good historical points before drop off. Our guide, Cathy, was amazing! Her knowledge and excitement for history was contagious!! We covered so many graves, parks and antebellum’s! This gal knows her history with adding several true crime and ghostly encounters and true crime murder scenes. Yellow fever epidemics, the great fires and so much more. Wear comfortable shoes, bring plenty of water , takes notes and ask questions. Cathy can also lead. You to some of the best places to eat! We loved her and this private tour was the highlight of our trip! We are already planing to go back! Will be calling Wayne and his staff again.

Too woke - What a disappointment. Our guide was nice enough and knowledgeable but the theme of the tour seemed to be how bad everybody was in our history. All the somewhat less than interesting stories were focused on how bad the basic colonists, the women, soldiers, and the indigenous people were treated. Women were victims and the men were evil oppressors. There was even the prerequisite mention of how the climate has changed. Leave it alone and tell the stories without the woke themes. It was such a joke we were both very disappointed and would have been laughing at it if we didn’t feel like we had wasted our money and time.
