Georgia, United States
Walking tours from $15, ghost and cemetery tours, and what’s really included for the price.
Savannah’s tour scene is built around walking, history, and ghost experiences: 56% of the 277 tours are walking, 54% historical, and 25% cultural. The majority of options—65%—cost less than $40, and 78% are under $60. Only 9% are rated below 4 stars, with the best-reviewed tours consistently combining engaging guides and in-depth storytelling.
The catalogue-wide median price is $31, but this is pulled up by private tours priced per vehicle. Within categories, the median ‘from’ price is $63 for walking, cultural, historical, and private/luxury tours, though these labels mix both budget and premium options. Most tours offer free cancellation, but this is standard across the city.
With 277 experiences, Savannah’s catalogue is dominated by walking and history tours, with ghost and cemetery tours also prominent. 37% of all tours cost under $25, and 65% under $40, making Savannah one of the more affordable major US destinations for guided experiences. Only 9% of tours are rated below 4 stars, and 88% offer free cancellation, so poor quality or inflexible terms are rare. Category medians can be misleading: ‘Private and Luxury’ covers everything from budget walking tours to pricier private options, so a $63 median does not mean luxury pricing. Similarly, ‘Bus Tours’ includes both inexpensive sightseeing buses and high-end private vehicles, so headline prices vary widely. Always check what is included—admission, transport, or extras—before judging value. The lowest-rated tours are often in the same categories as the best—walking, historical, and ghost—so details matter more than category.
| Private and Luxury | 199 | $63 |
| Walking Tours | 156 | $63 |
| Historical Tours | 150 | $63 |
| Cultural Tours | 69 | $63 |
Walking tours are the default for Savannah: more than half the catalogue falls in this category, with a median price of $63, but many high-rated options are available from $15–$30. Expect two hours on foot, with the best-reviewed tours praised for guides who blend history with storytelling. If you want more than just facts, check reviews for guides who bring Savannah’s people and stories to life—several critical reviews of walking tours cite guides who simply recite facts or lack engagement.
Ghost tours are another major draw, with most priced between $15 and $30 for 90–120 minutes. The best-rated combine historical context with ghost stories, but some disappoint those seeking scares—multiple reviews note that several ghost tours focus more on history than the supernatural. If you want a genuinely spooky experience, check recent reviews for mentions of storytelling style.
Cemetery tours offer both walking and golf cart options. The $23–$36 range covers both, but what’s included can differ: some tours provide transportation and longer durations, while others are shorter and require you to get yourself there. The most praised cemetery tours feature guides with deep knowledge and personal stories, but a few reviews mention rushed pacing or last-minute cancellations—always check refund and weather policies.
Pub crawls and true crime tours cost around $30 for two hours. These can be hit or miss: while many are praised for entertainment value and drink deals, critical reviews mention guides who are disengaged or spend more time in bars than telling stories. If the focus is important to you, look for tours where reviews highlight storytelling and group engagement.
Bike and Segway tours, priced $37–$41 for one to two hours, offer a faster way to see the city. These consistently score high for fun and coverage, but a few reviews note that poor weather or unprofessional guides can spoil the experience. Always check cancellation terms and, if possible, avoid booking last-minute if rain is forecast.
Almost all Savannah tours confirm bookings instantly, so there’s little risk in booking close to your visit. However, some of the most popular walking and cemetery tours are flagged as likely to sell out—booking these at least a few days ahead is wise.
Free cancellation is standard, but tours do occasionally cancel last-minute due to weather or operational issues, especially outdoor and cemetery tours. If your schedule is tight, book earlier in your stay to allow for rescheduling.
