    What you'll see and do

    1. Oglethorpe Square

      Oglethorpe Square, nestled in the heart of Savannah, Georgia, is steeped in history and haunted lore. Here, in the shadow of ancient oaks, many claim to witness the restless spirits of Yellow Fever victims, forever trapped in their fevered delirium, wandering the square in a tragic, eternal loop.

      6 minutes here

    2. Built in 1819 by the talented architect William Jay, the Owens-Thomas House exemplifies English Regency style with its elegant design and historical charm. Yet, beneath its sophisticated facade, this mansion harbors unsettling tales of hauntings, with ghostly figures and unexplained noises reported by those who dare to explore its shadowy corners, believed to be echoes of the house's troubled past.

      7 minutes here

    3. The Lindsey & Morgan Company Building in Savannah, Georgia, was constructed atop old burial grounds, adding a layer of eerie history to its storied past. Former tenants have frequently reported unsettling occurrences, such as furniture mysteriously shifting on its own and other ghostly disturbances that hint at the restless spirits beneath.

      6 minutes here

    4. Wright Square

      Wright Square, a historic gem of Savannah, is famously haunted by the restless spirit of Tomochichi, the revered Native American leader whose grave lies beneath the square. Visitors often report eerie sightings and a sense of being watched, as if the ghost of Tomochichi lingers, guarding his final resting place with a spectral presence.

      7 minutes here

    5. The Juliette Gordon Low House, home to the founder of the Girl Scouts, is also a site of spectral intrigue. Here, the ghostly figures of William and Eleanor Gordon, the founder’s parents, are said to roam the halls, their spirits lingering in a place that once held their presence and profound influence.

      6 minutes here

    6. Chippewa Square, famously known for its iconic Forrest Gump bench scene, is not just a picturesque spot but also a place with darker undertones. Across the way at the Foley House, guests have reported sinister activities and ghostly disturbances, adding a chilling contrast to the square’s cinematic fame.

      7 minutes here

    7. The Savannah Theatre, one of the oldest theaters in the country, has long been a stage for more than just performances. Among its storied history and grand architecture, the mischievous ghost of a young boy named Ben is known to make his presence felt, delighting in playful pranks that leave both staff and visitors with eerie, yet intriguing, tales to tell.

      6 minutes here

    8. Colonial Park Cemetery

      Colonial Park Cemetery, one of Savannah's oldest and most enduring burial grounds, holds the remains of a diverse array of figures, from Revolutionary War soldiers to victims of the Yellow Fever epidemic. Amid its historic graves and weathered tombstones, visitors often encounter eerie phenomena, as the spirits of those who once rested here seem to linger, their stories whispering through the cemetery’s shadowed paths.

      7 minutes here

    9. Captain Henry Dickerson's Home #1 and #2, once owned by the enigmatic captain, harbors a chilling tale of its own. Following his death in 1922, tenants discovered a small wooden box of personal effects in the attic's fourth floor, an unsettling find that seemed to awaken a series of paranormal disturbances, filling the house with restless and mysterious energies.

    Sinister Sins & Shadows: A Savannah Ghost Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Sinister Sins & Shadows: A Savannah Ghost Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $26 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 Sinister Sins & Shadows: A Savannah Ghost Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour 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 Sinister Sins & Shadows: A Savannah Ghost Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 95 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 Sinister Sins & Shadows: A Savannah Ghost Tour?

    +

    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 Sinister Sins & Shadows: A Savannah Ghost Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Sinister Sins & Shadows: A Savannah Ghost Tour?

    +

    Around 33 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-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Sinister Sins & Shadows: A Savannah Ghost Tour 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.
