The Bascilica. We also went for a drink at Pinky’s. Truly enjoyed the history that our “guide” included. Just the right amount!

RebeccaJill_P

Perfect pace for discovery. Like the flexibility to stop and return while listening. The app was a bit unstable and stopped a couple of times but was easy to get back on track. I lived in Savannah for years and learned things I didn’t know. Will take the first of the two-tour series another day!

The parts that were not specifically included in the tour. I really enjoyed going into the cathedral of St. John's Church. I also enjoyed an interior design shop we passed and getting drinks at the Arts Cafe.

Easy to follow, interesting history, worth doing in Savannah! The guide narration was clear and easy to understand. Nice tidbits too unrelated to history like a cool bookstore and restaurant. Very cool the way the gps links up with it.

Thoroughly enjoyed. Gave us the history of Savannah and each square on our own time, at our own pace. Highly recommend
