Very disappointed
When we arrived it was very hot in the bus. The driver turned on the air but the bus never cooled down. We were drenched with sweat by the time we got off the bus. The website said that we would stop for ice cream but we did not. The driver pointed it out to us and kept driving.

Tour Never Happened
Tour was cancelled. Didn’t get a refund. Please advise when the amount will be refunded to my credit card. Very poor customer service overall.

“hot & humid”
reasons for poor review: 1- tried to call tour company provider to arrange for hotel pick up several times on 2 different days but cant get hold of anybody and answering machine always full. better customer service needed 2- no A/C on the van during the entire duration of the tour. driver/tour guide turned on and off A/C but to no avail. didnt feel any air circulating inside vehicle. all of us in my group of 7 were sweltering in the heat & humidity inside van. it was hard to enjoy tour under such suffocating space 3- instructions where to find van at start of tour inadequate. we had to figure out ourselves where the vehicle was

Ridiculously hot
We specifically picked this tour because it was air conditioned bus. When we got on the bus, it was here t but the tour guide had the door open for quite awhile. I asked if he could increase the air conditioning and he stated it really doesn’t work well, and that is the best it gets. Granted, it was a hot day,but it is Savannah in summer. Needless to say 3 of the 4 of us fell asleep! It was a boring tour, movies from a million years ago (1915), the tour needs something added to it. We didn’t even see Forest Gumps bench, that is inside the tourism building. I do not recommend this tour, it was terrible

Non Event
day before the 6/5/2019 scheduled tour I received a voice message from the local tour operator stating that my wife & I were the only 2 booked guests on that day's tour. as a result, the tour operator cancelled the scheduled tour. My credit card has been charged. The charge has not yet been reversed.

Why this scores 45
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Savannah.
How much does Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District cost?
+
Prices start at $22 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 Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 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 Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 45 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.1/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Savannah, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District?
+
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 Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District?
+
Around 4 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 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District 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 Bonaventure Cemetery Walking Tour with Transportation, Historic Savannah Guided Walking Tour, 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.
What happens to Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Savannah. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
What do travelers say about Movie Tour of Savannah's Historic District?
+
Across 11 reviews averaging 3.1 out of 5, recurring themes include the guide, knowledge and storytelling. Travelers single out the guide as the reason the experience works.
