The only FULL WALKING TOUR of Bonaventure Cemetery WITH TRANSPORTATION and most accurate Bonaventure Tour, bar none! Most other tours start at the gate and regurgitate a scripted tour of myth, legend, and flat out lies that was written to separate visitors from their money. With me, you get a 6th generation Savannahian and academically trained historian with 30 plus years in the Savannah hospitality business who has the inside scoop and who loves sharing the stories. All this and Southern Hospitality too! Door to door service from downtown or meet me at the cemetery if you'd rather drive yourself. Complimentary bottled water and everything else you'll need for a stroll through the oaks.

Located on the banks of the Wilmington River, Bonaventure Cemetery is one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the South.
