Greatly appreciated our laid back and well informed guide’s approach to sharing her knowledge and passion for Savannah’s history. She pulled no punches when it came to our questions on the role of slavery, religion and native Americans in shaping the birth and growth of Savannah.

We were fortunate to have Janie guide us on our tour of Savannah and the Bonaventure Cemetery. While she had a standardized itinerary around the Squares, she added interesting and personal flavor to each of the sights. Ultimately it was like having an old friend taking us around her hometown, with great interpersonal conversations along the way. She will always be the highlight of our Savannah trip.

I would recommend this service to anyone who wants a worry free day at the beach when visiting Savannah. Chris picked us up, drove us to the beach with a stop on the way to fill a cooler that he provided along with ice and towels. When we arrived he set up ‘camp’ and made sure we had everything we needed...Kind of like having our husbands along without having to have our husbands along????. He is very accommodating and friendly. Give him a call! Kathy and Gail
