Our guide was so awesome and you could tell he loved what he does! His accounting of the history of the cemetery as well as those buried there was so interesting. Full review by 374gigic
I will be visiting the week of Jan. 15 and don’t have exact schedule yet but was wondering if there are any private driving tours available for the cemetery . My mother will be with me and at 84 needs a wheelchair. I’m afraid the weather may be too much to have her out that long. I really, really, really don’t want to miss a tour of this place!

I don’t know the name of the tour or tour company but there was a tour there that was a van and people were being driven. I’d contact Bonaventure Cemetery Tours or perhaps tours by locals. You certainly can get a private tour through them.
Do you have to do a tour or can you just walk through this? Are the tours 2 hours? That seems like a bit much.

You are able to go into the cemetery without a tour however I can assure you taking a tour with Shannon Scott through Bonaventure is worth your visit. He knows everything you would ever want to know about this cemetery and Savannah in general. I can also tell you 2 hours goes so quickly you will wish you could stay longer. We have been there a couple of times and each time we have gone to a new section and have learned so many things about people, sculptures, stories, Mason's,etc... I would highly recommend this tour. We will be back.
I have two children - ages 5 and 8 -- is this tour appropriate for them? Is it an all walking tour?
A:
The walking is not a problem for the kids, but depending on the time of year the heat could be an issue because there is no shade. Also, the tour is very historical, so while the …
The walking is not a problem for the kids, but depending on the time of year the heat could be an issue because there is no shade. Also, the tour is very historical, so while the teenagers and I enjoyed the tour, my eight year old was bored.
