The Experience
The tour is already moving through the Historic District when you arrive—your guide is pointing out the first mansion, and the group is already learning why Savannah sits on top of the dead. That's the thing about this ghost tour: it doesn't start with an introduction or a slow setup. You're walking into stories that are already unfolding, and the guide weaves history and hauntings together as you move between the haunted mansions and burial grounds scattered across the neighborhood. The Grave Tales Ghost Tour visits the most haunted cemeteries in Savannah, and your guide knows which ones hold the strangest tales.
What makes this different from other ghost tours in Savannah is that it's built for families—kids stay engaged because the stories are real history, not just jump scares. You'll pass through the Historic District on foot, stopping at Revolutionary War battlefields and old homes where actual events happened. The guide is a local who knows the streets and the stories, and they explain why so many cemeteries ended up hidden beneath the city's layout. It's the kind of detail that makes you see Savannah differently once you know it.
The whole thing runs in all weather, so bring shoes that work on uneven ground and dress for whatever the day throws at you. If you're traveling with small children, strollers work fine on the walking routes. Groups of ten or more should contact the private sales coordinator directly—they handle larger bookings separately. The tour moves at a pace that works for families, and the local guide keeps the energy steady without rushing through the stops.
