Our guide was wonderful. She told stories with genuine enthusiasm. We had young children with us and she accommodated. We are from Cleveland Ohio and she pointed out many wonderful Savannah attractions. Would have liked to go inside the graveyard for a close up look. Overall, it was a pleasing experience.
I'm originally from Cleveland too! Thank you for joining us in Savannah, neighbor! Your guide is a truly lovely person and fantastic storyteller! Thank you immensely for joining us and thank you so much for the review!
Our tour leader, Kerry was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the tour. He was very personable and answered our questions. One family member was in a wheelchair and he was helpful to look for easier sidewalk areas for her. We loved his stories and my daughter appreciated the lack of “dad jokes” Highly recommend Kerry.
He is exceptionally witty and nice. Doesn't need the trite " Dad jokes". I'm so glad that you enjoyed your Fraidy Cat ghost tour with him! Thank you for joining us and thank you for the review .
We took our 9 year old grandson and it was the perfect balance of history and ghostly tales to keep him (mostly) interested for the entire time. The next day he couldn't stop talking about all the stories he heard!
