Traveler reviews
Beautiful day to experience the life in the cemetery
The cemetery was beautiful. The guide was knowledgeable and entertaining!!
Bring bug spray… srsly.
Good value for price. Our guide had plenty of history to offer. He leaned a little too much into the corny dad jokes, but he was transparent about it so no harm no foul. He offered bug spray which was a genius idea.
Great tour
Dawn was great. She showed true knowledge of the history. We enjoyed learning about the history.
Great Tour, Great Tour - Recommended
Really enjoyed this tour with Chris around the beautiful Bonaventure Cemetary in Savannah. Super friendly and enthusiastic guide who was happy to interact and answer questions as we spent a couple of hours wandering around the graveyard. The only thing we noticed was that after then doing some additional reading following the tour, some uncomfortable history was omitted when it came to the North/South divide - one example being, the aftermath of Sherman's march down to Savannah which could have added context to why the South was 'bitter to the end' - we travelled from overseas and don't have a horse in the race on these topics, so whilst expected nowadays, is always interesting. Great morning though and would absolutely go again.
It was a wonderful tour!...
