Was good, not as much history of Civil War as expected but good.

Our walking tour was great. Brad, the guide, was very informative and provided and enjoyable morning walking thru Savannah.

Our guide was excellent although I was a little disappointed in that there wasn't enough Civil War history on this tour but it might have been because there isn't really that much actual Civil War history in Savannah. The City is full of history of pirates, various occupations and slavery that the Civil War becomes a small part of what has actually taken place in Savannah. Thank you General Sherman for sparing this beautiful City. This is a great walking tour loaded with historical details. Mary, Mike, Ann and Clay

This tour was a lot of fun! The guide was very informative. We covered quite a bit of ground in the short amount of time we had available.

This was my first time to Savannah. I like history and got an excellent tour guide that was very knowledgeable! We toured all over the historic district and I enjoyed the level of historic knowledge, professionalism and humor of our tour guide. I highly recommend this tour.

Brad was terrific. He knew his stuff. Favorite visit was to the Pink House._br/_ Only complaint that I have is The Savannah Walks does not get back to you. I made 6 calls and left messages before anyone contacted me while I was there in Savannah. Someone must work these phones more diligently.

Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable but we had taken an historical walking tour a couple of days prior and the locations and topics on both tours were almost identical so it was a bit redundant for me. I would recommend doing one or the other. Also, calling it a Civil War tour is a bit of a stretch, just some mentions of General Sherman and how he related to the locations we visited.

I booked this tour for my husband, a history major and fan of Civil War sites. The tour was Friday, February 24, 2017 at 1:00. It was not a Civil War tour. My husband said that the tour guide even told him that it wasn't really a CW tour and husband said that the CW was hardly mentioned. Even though the tour was a good one, it was in no way what it was advertised to be. Not a lot of money wasted but the false advertising is unexcusable.

our tour was supposedly to be a civil war tour, and yet our guide Lance was obviously more interested in telling about movie facts shot in Savannah, and equally about ghost stories. While we heard somewhat about the civil war, our overwhelming feeling was that we were not given a tour that we had signed up for and paid for. Additionally, our guide had no visible sign of being part of your company, and so we were a little worried about how we would identify our guide. All in all, a very unsatisfactory experience.

This tour quide was very, very poor. He was disorganized, wanderedef to different topics, made some inappropriate comments to the other couple with us and made several incorrect statements on various issues, Based on this experience we will be very hesitant to use your service again.

First, our guide was fifteen minutes late. This isn't a big deal to us as the tour lasted fifteen minutes longer but it may be a pet-peeve for some people. There were only four of us on the walking tour. My wife and I, and another couple. The guide seemed to only give the tour to the other couple as he never made eye contact with us or bothered to ask us how we were doing. These are things he did with the other couple. As if this wasn't bad enough he walked against two red lights. We followed him the first time as it was a small street and there were no vehicles coming. But the second time it happened he crossed a major street. It was at this point that our suspicions of being ignored were confirmed as he didn't look back to see if we were there. He just walked on, talking to the other couple. The only reason he stopped was because it was part of the tour. When we caught up to him all he could do was ask us why we didn't cross the street. I told him the light was red. He said around here they the cars have to stop for pedestrians no matter what. Sorry, but growing up in a major city taught me to look both ways before crossing the street and to stop walking if the light was red. In Los Angeles we call crossing a street with a red light jay walking and the drivers aren't held accountable for hitting jay walkers. I doubt Savannah is different. I just think we got an inconsiderate guide. Lastly, his story telling ability was mediocre at best. That is, when I actually heard the story as he never seemed to want to face my wife and I to tell us the stories so it was hard to hear him. All of this being said I do not recommend this tour to others. There are many options available in the way of walking tours of Savannah. Next time we'll be taking on of those and I recommend you do as well. Savannah is too beautiful a city to have any part of your visit ruined by a guide as inconsiderate as ours was.

The tour guide was very knowledgeable but did not make history very exciting. Story telling was a bit dry. Just facts.

Brad was a terrific leader. He incorporated civil war history, architecture, and local floral and fauna. He was fun, interesting, and the time flew. Highly recommended!!

We had a very enjoyable walking tour with Brad our tour guide- he was very articulate and knowledgeable about the city of Savannah and its role in the civil war. He must be something of an expert on General Sherman and the connections and influence the General had in Savannah. a wonderful tour!

Enjoyed very much. He gave his 'All', and we really appreciated it.

YOu combined 2 tours. The guide was ok- but combining tours was a bit confusing.
