Don’t be parking !
Tara_W
, Aug 2021
Drove from Ohio and was so excited to show my 10yr old son the walking tour of savannah. I booked this ahead and was staying in hotel - had to find parking as it is unusual parking via maps and navigation. No parking until getting on the 4th floor. Made contact with guide who said go east” like I know East! With a 10 yr old oh let me get my compass out. Or look at the sun. Then was told to come to ugly white parking garage which was where?? Towards what?? So frustrating when you don’t know exactly where you are or what direction you are. So make sure you know your LATITUDE AND LONGITUDE AND 30 min ahead for parking. I’m sure I won’t be refunded.

In our 25 years of giving tours, we have made every effort to make sure every guest arrives successfully at the meeting location. 99 guests out of 100 do arrive successfully. I’m not sure how a directionally challenged experience translates into a bad review. We made every effort to get the guest to the meeting location. But at some point, the guide has to start the tour!

Tour was ok, but I think I’d been better off exploring the city on my own. Guide was having a hard time talking over the traffic

Thank you for the review! In response to your review, I think you’ll find that even the trolley tour drivers with their microphones and headsets have a hard time being heard on busy weekends. Walking tour guides are not allowed to use amplification equipment but all of our guides are well trained in voice projection and in seeking out more quiet areas to address their groups. If it is hard to hear a guide it is always a good idea to move towards the front of the group to hear better or even ask the guide to repeat what they said. They will always be delighted to do so!

Bad experience with stroll tour of Savannah
Heather_G
, Jul 2021
The tour guide was late, he did not review much history but went into great detail about gory details of death and the Marshall House experience a friend of his had. He kept saying I forgot my water until one of the attendees bought him a bottle of water. He kept talking about having to speak over diesel trucks and sometimes went in circles with what he was saying. My son and I thought about walking away, but didn’t in the hope that it would improve. I took this same tour back in March with my BF and had a fabulous experience. I’m disappointed. Maybe this guy is used to giving a ghost tour, but he seemed uninterested and hungover. He didn’t wear any type of identification - but used his phone to appropriately identify attendees.

We suspect you are reviewing a guide but not one of ours. We do not have a guide that meets this description. I did look up you reservation from March and you took the tour with me. I’m delighted you had a fabulous time. But we have no idea who this guide is and would never hire a guide that would meet this description.
