Savannah Ghosts & Gravestones Trolley Tour

10.Savannah Ghosts & Gravestones Trolley Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 2,723 reviews · 1 hour 15 minutes (approx.) · from $39

Savannah Ghosts & Gravestones review: a 75-minute trolley ride with haunted stories, Andrew Low House access, River Street, and practical tips.

“I was really disappointed with this ghost tour. The “acting” felt more silly than spooky, and it completely took away from the experience. Instead of creating any real atmosphere or suspense, the performances came across as forced and not believable. The warehouse portion of the tour was especially frustrating — it felt pointless, dragged on, and honestly was a waste of time. On top of that, the staff didn’t seem friendly or welcoming, which only made the whole thing less enjoyable. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this tour and definitely wouldn’t do it again.”

Review of Washington DC’s 15-stop hop-on hop-off trolley, with route advice, landmark highlights, guide tips, pricing, and Arlington add-on details.

“If you’re looking to enjoy the city without getting a migraine this is not your place. Driver didn’t stop talking not even a minute. The volume was so high that I couldn’t even talk to my wife sit beside me. I understand the necessity of the driver trying to earn a tip but she ruined the experience and the rest of the day because of the headache. Definitely not recommended. Also the stops are not the best either and took an eternity to wait for the bus. Do yourself a favor and uber from one point to another. If you are three or more you will also save money.”
