Great tour, a bit long!

Wonderful tour and excellent tour guide! Since it doesnt include transportation, we were worried that we wouldn't be able to catch an uber/lyft out there, but that turned out not to be a problem and we made it out there and back just fine. It was a bit longer than we expected and we were beginning to grow tired of walking on a warm day so be sure to wear your walking shoes, and bring water, and sun screen and even bug spray if you tend to attract bugs. However, the walk through the cemetary was beautiful and filled with history and stories. My favorite parts were seeing the Mercer plot, and learning about Little Gracie. I recommend this tour for your next trip to Savannah.

We had almost arrived at the cemetery when we received a text that the guide was stuck in a major traffic accident and would not arrive at all. The tour company did not have any other guides available. We downloaded a guide for $4 and it was great.
