We enjoyed this tour! Bonaventure is a beautiful setting and Shannon led the tour at a comfortable pace, allowing plenty of time for questions and photos. We could have strolled the grounds on our own, but we would have missed out on the fascinating stories Shannon shared; especially the one about Gracie.

Our guide and driver were both great!! We loved the stories and the tour was a great experience.

The guide was very knowledgeable and welcoming of questions. Enjoyed the tour immensely.

Really enjoyed hearing about the history of Savannah through this beautiful cemetery.

James was an awesome tour guide! We enjoyed the stories and beer along the way!
