Leroy was the best guide we’ve had in Savannah! Extremely knowledgeable about the history of Savannah and his enthusiasm was off the radar. He interacted with the group and welcomed questions from all. He even extended the tour for those who wanted more! I would highly recommend this tour with him!

I bought the 2 day pass. The first day we used it to get an overview of the city and the second day we hopped on and off. It was great!

Our guide and driver were great story tellers and worked well together. An evening of entertainment was had by all. Would recommend.

For a fun orientation of this historic city, the trolley can’t be beat.
