My wife & I took this tour last week & really enjoyed it. The Tour Guide Ashley was very knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommended!

We had the most wonderful experience with Genteel and Bard, twice. We took a ghost tour one evening and also a tour of Bonaventure Cemetery. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable. I learned so much about Savannah history. I will definitely tour with them again and I would recommend them 100%. We did go on a tour with one other company and it was horrible. Our guide knew nothing except for her scripted spiel; it was really a waste of time and money.

I highly recommend the Genteel & Bard tour of Bonaventure Cemetery. Our tour guide, Ashley, was incredibly knowledgeable (she actually researched and created the tour!) and entertaining, and we learned so much about Savannah's history. The cemetery itself is gorgeous and absolutely worth visiting for the landscaping and statuary.

Ashley was a wonderful guide! Very knowledge and easy to visit with. We were able to ask a lot of questions as she guided us through the cemetery. We highly recommended this tour when you visit Savannah.

We have used G&B for several tours. We have also used other tour companies that have been less than great-folks look like they rolled out of bed and hopped on a trolley to read a script and collect a tip. G&B is the real deal-professional historians. They can answer questions and if they don’t know the answer will have genuine interest in researching the question. We did the cemetery tour and I was relieved that they were respectful and professional in providing tour service in a working cemetery. Fascinating tour! We will be back!

Ashley did the research behind this tour and presented it with a personal touch. The grounds are lovely even in the rain. Appreciated her use of a microphone so we did not miss a thing. Two hours flew by!

Our tour was conducted by Ashley. She was an amazing guide, both extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. There is a fair amount of walking, although slowly and on level ground. I would recommend this tour and also recommend Ashley.

Ashley was our tour guide and was fabulous. She was very knowledgeable about the cemetery and its history. Beautiful walk with azaleas blooming.

This tour was absolutely amazing. Tour guide Ashley was wonderful, sharing lots of information about many areas of the cemetary. This is a great time to visit, very beautiful and good weather. We are so glad we chose this walking tour and would greatly recommend.
