    What you'll see and do

    1. Chatham County Jail

      The Old City Jail was once home to 600 prisoners, areas for the criminally insane and violent along with an execution cell. Its no wonder the art college bailed on the structure and we're all left wondering how the private Christian school located there is doing!

      10 minutes here

    2. Greene Square

      Home to an old female orphange where 2 bank robbers learned their lesson and lost their freedoms to a ghost! One cottage overlooking the setting for a somber scene where a teenage girl considers suicide but is consoled by a concerned and all too familiar ghost.

      10 minutes here

    3. A murder suicide in a childhood gives life to one of the world's most fascinating poets. Discussions include Colonial Park Cemetery, Police Precinct One and other related supernatural events that make these 2 side by side properties utterly fascinating.

      10 minutes here

    4. Calhoun Square

      Now known as Taylor Square for a famed nurse, situated beneath the square is one of the original black burial grounds built over as the city expanded and his home to the famously haunted Espy House and 432 Abercorn.

      15 minutes here

    5. Colonial Park Cemetery

      Famed 1750's cemetery home to colonial hangings, mass graves, and nightmarish stories of yellow fever along with heavy historical and modern use by root doctors. You'll hear about the Man in Blue apparition and more.

      10 minutes here

    6. Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace Museum

      It's difficult to impress that one of the most haunted buildings in Savannah from a family perspective and an organizational one, is the Gordon Home but absolutely is one of the most documented haunted homes with accounts going back over 100 years.

      10 minutes here

    7. Hamilton-Turner House

      Savannah's first electrified home and one of the city's most beautiful inns has a dark past with massive poltergeist accounts, an unsolved murder and significant ties to Midnight In The Garden of Good and Evil

      10 minutes here

    8. This former funeral home turned high-class inn has made more than one honeymooner's stay a fairly frightful one and for some has come with a touch of omen.

      10 minutes here

    9. Davenport House Museum

      From yellow fever victims to a legendary shape-shifting cat, this home smacks of rootwork and other spiritual blemishes.

      5 minutes here

    10. The Old Sorrel-Weed House Museum & Tours

      This 1830s home was famously filmed by our company founder for the first episode of Ghosthunters ever filmed outside of their home state and stands as one of Savannah's most investigated properties.

      10 minutes here · Admission not included

    11. Wright Square

      Wright Square gave us the expression of Savannah, the city built on top of its dead as a cemetery with 300 estimated burials remaining beneath it. Historically it was the end of town as the 4th square of the eventual 24 and in colonial times is where the city jail, hanging gallows, stood over looking the early graveyard. This is where Irish sorceress, Alice Riley was famously kept and executed with plenty of early recorded accounts of her spirit inside of homes, businesses on the square.

      10 minutes here · Admission not included

    12. This acclaimed bar, inn, was named such in 1790 before burning in the great fire of 1820. Not long after, Anna White ended her life here inside of a tragic, controlling marriage. Early developers in 1976, deal with the continual spirit phenomenon with famed demonologist couple, The Warrens of The Amityville, investigating. While many hotels latch onto pseudo claims of ghosts, there's no shortage of guests here leaving in the night and leaving their stories in the "guest registrar."

    DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!

    Oh my God, don’t waste your time or money!! This was a complete farce. There are so many better ghost tours to choose from. The guide was obviously ill prepared and was just “winging it”.

    Response from the operator: Simply put, in our business we from time to time deal with clients that choose to conspire to gang up on our company I'm very sorry to say. We've worked hard to build something that they, with malice, have targeted to tear down. They and their companions, to some perception degree have succeeded. But instead of dignifying this review or the ones of their companions overall, I've decided to publish our initial response to the client's reasonable sounding request for a refund which occurred before these reviews and will let the public be the judge. It should be said that the original reserving client, was refunded, and never responded to my reply to them as published here below. For those still interested, it did turn out that our guide was suffering with vertigo and heat exhaustion but again, the intent of the client was not to afford us any empathy or human understanding. Hi _________, That's a lot to take in but appreciate your candor and thorough explanation and have no issue supplying you with a refund. I'll certainly look into it and regret this was the outcome. Naturally we'd love the opportunity to make it up to you as our guests with a different guide. Not having spoken to Mr. Anderson as of yet but I know he's had some health problems and that may or may not have contributed. All of the same, I feel sure he'll want to know about your experience and will take it just as seriously. While we didn't deliver what you were after, we consider you our client even after we flop but appreciate your energy here as most wouldn't care enough so thank you. If I can be of any service to you in the wake of things in so far as a makeup tour while in town or in the future, please don't hesitate to contact me via the Emergency Number in your confirmation email which is simply my cell phone. Respectfully, Shannon Scott

    Extremely Uncomfortable and Uninformative

    Unfortunately, this was a complete disappointment. I have been on several tours throughout cities all over the world and I always try to go with local small businesses. I had high hopes based on the other reviews. Our guide arrived late, which was not a big deal, but that should have been our first red flag. We started out at Monterey Square, like the itinerary said, but it went downhill fast. I originally picked this specific tour because the tour was supposed to end closer towards where we were staying. Instead, he did not take us to any of the locations listed in the itinerary and we went further into the historic district, ending past Forsyth Park (the exact opposite direction we were to go) at a hotel where we were very obviously not supposed to be in (as he whipped his tour pass off as soon as we went onto the property), but was sold to as us a good place to get a refreshment and meet our Uber. Aside from the itinerary change, I don’t think “Lazarus” finished one single story and at times talked so low I could barely understand him. I tried marking his erratic behavior off as part of his character, but his rudeness towards other guides and individuals on the street was extremely uncomfortable. Mind you, we were an very small group, so this could have been an incredible tour, but instead we couldn’t wait for it to end. I had to remind him to finish one story, and then after that, I feel as if he didn’t finish any of the other stories. I try my hardest to give everyone the benefit of the doubt and love leaving 5 star reviews, but this was literally a waste of money, and even worse, a waste of our evening where we could have done so many other things on our limited time here.

    Uncomfortable and a let down

    We were originally told that we would have a female guide, which was important to us since this was a girls’ trip with my mom, my grandma, and me. At the last minute, we received a text saying our guide would instead be a man. We didn’t have an issue at first and assumed plans had simply changed. When we arrived at the meeting location he provided, he showed up about 10 minutes late. Throughout the two-hour tour, he rarely finished a single story and frequently went off on unrelated tangents, which made the experience confusing. More importantly, he made all three of us feel uncomfortable and uneasy during the tour. To make matters worse, at the end of the tour, instead of returning us to the original meeting point, he dropped us off at a hotel because it was apparently closer to his house. We were left to figure out how to get back on our own. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience. We were looking forward to learning about the area and enjoying the tour together, but instead we left feeling uncomfortable and frustrated. I would not recommend this tour based on our experience.

    wonderful tour and guide

    I did the tour tonight with Jonita and she had the right amount of spooky in her story and was so helpfull with our questions and was the perfect tour guide she was wonderful.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for the thoughtful words and honest take on your time out with Jonita, aka., Lady Lavinia. She's one of the most invested in the Savannah community with the performance of storytelling and music. I'll certainly pass along your complimentary words!

    Haunted Savannah Ghost Tour By Dr. Buzzard: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Savannah.

    How much does Haunted Savannah Ghost Tour By Dr. Buzzard cost?

    +

    Prices start at $33 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Savannah usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Haunted Savannah Ghost Tour By Dr. Buzzard take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Savannah is not rushed.

    Is Haunted Savannah Ghost Tour By Dr. Buzzard worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 21 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Savannah, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Haunted Savannah Ghost Tour By Dr. Buzzard?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Haunted Savannah Ghost Tour By Dr. Buzzard suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Haunted Savannah Ghost Tour By Dr. Buzzard?

    +

    Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Savannah can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Savannah and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Haunted Savannah Ghost Tour By Dr. Buzzard start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Savannah within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Savannah?

    +

    Savannah is a walking city with a dense guide market, which means quality spread is wide. Historic district walks, Bonaventure Cemetery trips, trolley hop-on routes and ghost tours with tavern access make up most bookings. Outty Ranking leans on licensed-guide status and group size, since the squares get loud once a tour passes twenty people. On Outty we rank every Savannah experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Historic Savannah Guided Walking Tour, Bonaventure Cemetery Walking Tour with Transportation, Haunted Savannah Booze and Boos Ghost Walking Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Savannah?

    +

    March to May for azaleas, or October to November for cool evenings. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Savannah?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
