Description
See Savannah through the eyes of someone who knows its stories by heart. Chris Lamb is a Savannah local, history graduate, and published author of the Sea Islands Freedom Civil War novels — and your private driver for this one-of-a-kind ride. This isn't a scripted narration. It's a conversation. Chris picks you up and drives you through Savannah's historic streets, squares, and riverfront, sharing the real history behind the places you're passing — the same ground he writes about in his books. Ask questions, stop for photos, steer the conversation toward what interests you. Flying in? Add airport pickup and drop-off to your booking — one driver for your arrival, your history ride, and your ride back to SAV. Ask about bundle pricing when you book. Good to know: - This is a private driving experience, not a walking experience - Available Tuesday and Wednesday daytime - Want the longer version? Ask about the half-day Sea Islands ride $267 per vehicle (up to 4 passengers). 2-hour ride.
