The Bonaventure Cemetery Tours focus on history and symbolism. We offer nighttime haunted history tours downtown in the Savannah Historic District, our original Sixth Sense Savannah Ghost Tours, which covers a section of the south side of the Historic District, more Victorian Era properties, while the America’s Most Haunted City Tour visits the north side of the Historic District, more Colonial era properties. The south side is more residential than the north side, which is somewhat more industrial.
Ultimately, each residence or property has its own unique story, so each tour – which stops at different locations – has different stories focusing on the history, hauntings and folklore of some of the most notoriously haunted properties in the Historic District. None of the walking tours in town will take you inside the properties. It is all outside. We are one of the original tour companies in Savannah, being in business for 25 years now. We are responsible for the research and investigations that put many of the now famous places on the map! Truly, not just a tour, a Savannah Experience.
