Good self guided tour to historic Savannah

Published on Aug, 2024

Good stories, easy to follow directions, brought us to good places of interest. Reserving and downloading the right one wasn't as quick and easy as it should be. They need to simplify this so you aren't wading through all the choices trying to find the right one and with a simple download button.

Interesting and informative

Published on Aug, 2024

Very informative and easy to follow . The tour took about an hour . I enjoyed the stories about Savannahs history . Makes me want to learn more about this charming city. I would highly recommend this walking tour.

Best audio tour. Felt...

Best audio tour. Felt like I was with a real life guide. The points of reference were so helpful to ensure you’re looking at the correct building.

So great we bought for another city

Published on Apr, 2024

The audio tour was great! Great stops. Great history lesson. Very easy to understand the person speaking. The directions to each stop were easy to follow. It includes a map that shows you where you are with a red line showing you where to go so that you can easily follow that and see if you get off track. You can pause the tour to go do other things ( we toured an old house) ir even rewind what the speaker says in 15 second increments. We liked it so much we bought one for our next stop in Charleston.

Definitely worth it!

Such an amazing tour! Very informative and worth every minute. My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
