Visite du cimetière Bonaventure de Savannah
Description
Dépassez le voile et plongez dans la beauté envoûtante du cimetière Bonaventure, où des anges en ruine font le guet silencieux sous les chênes tordus et la mousse espagnole traînante. Au cours de cette visite diurne, vous errerez dans un labyrinthe de tristesse et de splendeur, retraçant la vie – et la présence persistante – des âmes les plus anciennes de Savannah. Parmi eux, vous rencontrerez Little Gracie, l’enfant bien-aimé dont la mort tragique a laissé derrière lui une légende fantomatique et une statue si réaliste qu’elle semble respirer. Dans ce jardin de tombes, la frontière entre passé et présent s'estompe, et chaque monument murmure une histoire d'amour, de perte et d'esprits persistants. Si vous avez 10 invités ou plus dans un groupe, veuillez contacter le coordinateur des ventes privées et de groupe avec Ghost City Tours.

Itinéraire
Découvrez l'élégance étrange du cimetière Bonaventure, où chaque pierre raconte une histoire et chaque chemin mène plus profondément dans le passé ombragé de Savannah. Visite de la tombe de Little Gracie, l’enfant le plus aimé et le plus fantomatique de la ville, dont la statue obsédante attire les pleureuses comme les curieux. Décodez les significations cachées gravées dans les tombes victoriennes – roses, urnes, agneaux et anges pleureurs, tous des récits murmurants de chagrin, de foi et de souvenir. En chemin, placez-vous devant les dernières demeures des personnages historiques les plus célèbres de Savannah, des poètes et politiciens aux héros de guerre et excentriques, et ressentez le poids de l’histoire dans l’immobilité qui vous entoure. Ce n’est pas seulement un cimetière, c’est une cathédrale de mémoire gothique du Sud.

Blair was a great tour guide! Lots of history! Would do it again
Thank you for the great review! We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring Bonaventure Cemetery with Blair and learning more about its history. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Blair. We’d love to have you join us again!
Sam was a great guide! Very informative and great personality. We also lucked out and were the only ones on the walking tour that time/day
Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring Bonaventure Cemetery with Sam. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words about his knowledge and personality. And getting the tour all to yourselves sounds like an extra-special way to experience such a fascinating place! Thanks for joining us!
Such an interesting and informative tour! We had Alex as our tour guide and they were SO knowledgeable and made the tour very fun. It was great to have a guide that was genuinely interested in what they were showing. It is a walking tour and it was in the middle of the Georgia heat wave - so come prepared with water and maybe a fan! There are some shaded spots but some of the tour was right out in the sun. The history of this cemetery is unreal and we had an amazing time and were talking about all the things we learned for the rest of the day. Also - bring good walking shoes! All in all, a 5/5 experience!
Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear Alex made your Bonaventure Cemetery Tour both fun and incredibly informative. It’s always wonderful when a guide’s genuine passion for the history comes through, and we’ll be sure to share your kind words with them. We also appreciate the helpful tips for future guests about the Georgia heat, water, and good walking shoes! We’re so glad you left still talking about everything you learned. Thanks for joining us and for the 5/5!

The tour was great! It wasn’t a big group but it was nice that way. The tour guide was amazing. He was so friendly and knowledgeable about the cemetery. Next time I visit Savannah, I will definitely be doing another tour. Not just with the cemetery but the other tours provided by this company!
Deanna was a fabulous guide! I thoroughly enjoyed the Bonaventure Cemetery Tour. She was engaging and authentic , she was happy to answer questions and her story telling skills and humor made this the highlight of my trip! Highly recommend this activity while in Savannah.
Absolutely amazing! It was well beyond our expectations! Alex is absolutely outstanding guide. She’s is not only extremely knowledgeable about the details and history of the cemetery, her passion towards this job is infectious. The frosting on the cake that she is sweet, kind, personable and fun. We hope you know that have a real treasure with her as your employee. Thank you for the best tour!!
Our tour guide, Sam, was very knowledgeable and answered everyone’s questions. He was not in a hurry and led a very interesting and comprehensive tour of the cemetery.
Savannah did a really good job. This wasn't our first time doing the Bonaventure Cemetery Tour but this time we brought a friend Suu we learned different things and saw a few different plots and didn't do some we liked. It was overall worth doing.
This was such a fun walk through the cemetery. Amanda was an engaging and knowledgeable guide, not to mention super funny! She had a lot of knowledge about Savannah history and great tidbits to share as well as being very open to questions. I had a fantastic time!
