This was a really good way to end our stay on Tybee Island. Jack was our tour guide and she was very knowledgeable and gave us a nice leisurely tour in a 8-seater golf cart. I highly recommend this!

Wow! One of the best tours we have ever taken, if not the best, and we’ve been on a lot of tours. Our guide, Jac, was a very good speaker, knowledgeable, and passionate about the island. I can’t recommend this tour high enough.

Dawn_P

The history told by Jac. She really is a great story teller. You can tell that she loves her job. It was non stop history told by someone who actually lives there.

I have been to Tybee several times and this tour added so much to my knowledge of the island's history. Jac is an excellent guide who shares her knowledge with humor! She makes learning fun! As a local herself she can answer questions and provide info on places to eat, etc. Jac is the best!

Due to weather, we had to change our reservation for 10 people from one day until the next. Tripadvisor was very supportive and making the change to our tour guide. Jacqueline was fantastic, both in her knowledge of the islan, her enthusiasm for the island and her care for us. we were 10 ladies all over 65 and she took very good care of us.
