Kerry was an awesome tour guide! I learned a lot about Savannah that I don’t think I would’ve ever learned if not for this tour.
Our history tour is absolutely fascinating and your guide is an avid historian! We do extensive research. The history of Savannah is seriously fun. Thank you for joining us and thank you so much for the review!
Our guide, Kerry, was knowledgeable and very entertaining. He took time and there was no rushing us from one square to the next. We learned so much more than what the history books told us. We love walking tours and this was one of the best. I would highly recommend this tour while enjoying the beautiful city of Savannah which is so rich with some pretty complicated history!!
Our Hidden History tour is fascinating. Very intensely researched and your guide is a true history buff and a magnificent story teller. I'm absolutely delighted that you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for the review!
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Kerry. He is a wealth of Savannah knowledge and his passion for the history of the city is obvious.
Kerr is fantastic! Phenomenal guide and phenomenal person! I'm so glad that you enjoyed our Hidden History tour and your time with Kerry. Thank you immensely for the review.
Our tour guide was informative & had some neat stories to tell...Fun tour w/ great history. Nice to see some of the local pubs & stop for drinks along the way! I would recommend this tour for small groups.
Thank you for joining us and thank you immensely for the review!
I like to ghost hunt but I also like obscure facts about the reality of the people who founded Savannah and what they lived through. If it wasn’t for my tour guide, Neil, I probably wouldn’t have learned what I learned about the inventor of the cotton gin or James Oglethorpe and friends.
I'm so glad that you enjoyed our Hidden History tour and I totally agree about obscure history! It is fascinating. And a huge thank you for the review!
Two hour walking tour that almost lasted three! Our guide Kerry was really knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the city especially the part that usually does not make it to the textbooks. Half the group has encouraged him to write a book himself ;) If you are interested about the (side) characters (mostly unknown) history, this is definitely for you.
Kerry is an amazing historian and talented storyteller! Thank you for joining him for the Hidden History tour and thank you for the review!
This tour was the best of all the ghost tours on a Friday night! The entire tour was 1.5 miles and we hit at least 6 historic and “haunted” homes and landmarks. Our guide was very knowledgeable/funny and our group was so much smaller than the others so we could easily weave past the larger groups going past some of the more popular sights (the graveyard). Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for joining us and thank you immensely for the review. I'm very glad that you enjoyed your tour!
The heat was no joke, but the tour was totally worth braving the weather for. Kerry did a fantastic job speaking and showing us all the sites during this tour. I highly recommend if you're in Savannah, GA. Thank you again Kerry!
Thank you so much for joining Kerry for the Hidden History tour! He's phenomenal and very passionate about history, particularly Savannah's. And a huge thank you for taking the time to leave us a review!
Kerry did fantastic job and was very knowledgeable about the history. You can tell he truly has a passion for it!
The Hidden History tour is totally fun and Kerry is absolutely wonderful! I'm so glad that you enjoyed it. Thank you for the review!
Kerry's depth of knowledge and understanding of Savannah is amazing. No question stumped Kerry and getting the truth behind the plaques and official history was delicious.
Our Hidden History tour is most certainly not your average one and Kerry is an outstanding historian and a lot of fun! Thank you for joining us and thank you for the review.
