Overview

Noble Jones Architect Tour is an opportunity to walk and learn about Savannah's architecture and the architects behind the buildings. The guest limit is capped at ten people for this tour, giving our guests the opportunity to ask questions and have a more personal experience with our guides. Architecture is the material essence of the city. In just over one century, five men became the soul of the movement to match the beauty of the square design of our city. This tour discusses those architects, their backgrounds and how Savannah came to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world. This guided walking tour of the historic district includes an examination of the historic homes and buildings from 1817 through 1923. An interpretation of the architect's works and contributions to the city is discussed.

I went during Thanksgiving weekend. Excellent Guide, so much knowledge and humor. I love architecture and history. We walked through downtown and I learned so much about Savannah's rich history and mixed styles of buildings. I highly recommend it.

Great guide to Savannah’s architecture

Excellent informative and enjoyable guide by Kelsey. Learned a lot about the main architects and covered lots of squares and buildings. Highly recommend.

Great afternoon tour!

Kelce was an excellent tour guide. Even if you don’t know a lot about architecture, it is a great historical tour that interweaves the stories of Savannah through the architectural lens.

Architecture and history shared in a compelling fashion

Published on Nov, 2024

Mike led an outstanding architectural tour of historic Savannah. He was friendly, engaging and a pleasure to listen to . Our tour went long but that was due to his slowing down the pace for the benefit of his participants and fully answering questions. He was very professional and shared his deeply researched knowledge enthusiastically.
