Our guide was Nicodemus from Ghost City Tours and he was absolutely fantastic such a character! He was super entertaining while thoroughly educating us on the history of all the sites we visited!

The Ghost Tour we took wasn't overly far and our guide was very well informed as well as very entertaining. He is a fantastic story teller and does his research! I'm glad that I chose his tour for a date night with my husband because he loves it just as much as I did!
Morgan E. 5Real TripAdvisor Review
With Savannah being America's most haunted city, it is a shame not to go on this tour. Nicodemus and his chilling stories of the past make you feel as if you were there. I highly recommend this tour to anyone. The experience is well worth the money!

Ghost City Tours is primarily known as a Ghost Tour Company - as expected. However, after uncovering so much interesting history while researching our Ghost tours, we decided to share that knowledge with the tourists who come to Savannah. So in 2018, we introduced our Cemetery Tours in Savannah - and they've been the most popular tours in Savannah since.
As with our other tours, our Cemetery Tours are heavily researched. You'll never look at Savannah the same way after joining our guides. The depth of knowledge our Cemeteries Tours include is amazing! But don't worry - these tours are not some history lesson. You'll still be entertained. You'll share a laugh or many along the way.
Ghost City began operating tours in 2012, and before long, we became the Best Ghost Tour Company in the entire World. Our dedication to quality and authenticity has not only set us apart from the rest but made us the leader in the industry.
Ghost City operates a full Guest Services office, open from 7 am - 11:30 pm, seven days a week. We're here to help.
We've been Savannah's #1 Tour Company since 2012. Over 500,000 guests have picked Ghost City.
We employ and support Veterans from all Branches - We thank you for your service and are proud to offer you a discount!
In the rare circumstances where someone isn't 100% satisfied, we'll do what we need to do to make it right.
The best Tour Guides want to work with Ghost City. You won't find better tour guides in any of our cities.
All of our Tour Guides are true history buffs. This makes them great tour guides for our Cemetery Tours in Savannah.

We understand that you may have some questions about our Cemetery Tours - and you don't really want to call. Below you can find the answers to some of the most commonly asked questions we get about our tours.
ALL of our Cemetery Tours are Walking Tours
Here in Savannah, all of our tours are walking tours. This includes our Cemetery Tours. While we know you can go on a bus tour of Bonaventure Cemetery (not Colonial Park), we feel that the best experience is being able to walk amongst the graves, sitting on a bench, and taking in the whole feeling of being in some of the most historic cemeteries in America.
We know that there are some Cemetery Tour Companies in Savannah that offer their tickets for sales on Groupon. And if you're not worried about the quality of the tour you're getting - you can certainly spend some time on Groupon or Living Social and find tickets available. However, you won't see any from Ghost City.
We know that our Cemetery Tours are of the highest quality, with thousands of reviews from tourists and locals who have enjoyed our tours. In addition, our tours often sell out - especially on the weekends and on Holidays. There is simply no reason why we'd sell our tours on Groupon.
Companies that sell on Groupon are taking a very substantial cut to their revenue. If their company was as good as they claim it was - they wouldn't have to sell $20 cemetery tour tickets for $6 on Groupon. Even if you do not choose Ghost City - do yourself a favor and stay far away from companies who offer their tours on Groupon.
Pets are not permitted on the Cemetery Tours
Don't get mad at us! The rules of the Cemeteries we visit clearly state that you are not permitted to bring pets such as dogs into the Cemeteries. For this reason, Ghost City does not allow any pets on our Cemetery Tours in Savannah.
Our Cemetery Tours do not talk about Ghosts
While both Bonaventure Cemetery and Colonial Park Cemetery have more than their fair share of ghost stories, we do not talk about them on our Cemetery Tours. Out of respect for the families of those laid to rest, we prefer to spend our time talking our their lives and the history of the Cemetery itself.
All ticket sales are final. Like any other performance, and yes, our Tours are performances, we can only admit a limited number of people. Therefore, we cannot give you a refund should you decide not to attend.
However, we're not a bunch of unreasonable monsters. We allow our guests to reschedule their tickets to another date or time, as long as you do it at least 12 hours in advance.
When it comes to buying tickets for our tours, the following classes of tickets are based on age.
All of our Tours run 7 days per week. In addition, we often open up additional time slots for our tours as the original time sells out. If you want to book a tour Ghost City Tours will ensure that we are able to fit you in a tour. We still advise you to purchase your tickets as soon as you know which tour you want to take.
You can purchase your tickets online or by phone. In either case, you'll receive your tickets immediately via email. You must buy your tickets in advance.
Absolutely! As a matter of fact, if you want to add a Ghost Tour to your Cemetery we can offer you a pretty decent discount.
