The ceilings were extremely high, there was art all around us and because it was empty, it seemed even bigger. As soon as we entered we were greeted by a man in the front shop and he let us know that he was there for any questions we had. Since we were just killing time, we decided to just stroll around the building. There was a booth selling drinks and snacks, a nice touch for visitors popping in on their way to tour the city. We decided to head further up the stairs and stumbled into a spot that had tour brochures for so many local Southern cities and some sweet ladies behind the counter to help guide visitors. I ended up walking to the gift shop and began chatting with another sweet woman behind the counter. I was in awe of the most beautiful handcrafted miniature version of the Forsyth fountain and we talked about it for 10 or 15 minutes. It was truly one of the most beautiful pieces I've seen in a minute, obviously delicately crafted with so much love and intention. The woman at the counter told me stories of customers who have purchased the piece for special reasons, such as a mother who flew in to buy it as a surprise cake topper for her son's wedding as he proposed to his fiance at the fountain. How beautiful! Although we weren't there very long, I really enjoyed our visit!

This is a wonderful option that the city of Savannah has for people to get around because driving in Savannah can get very congested. The staff were very helpful, but they also maintained and upheld boat safety. It's important to know what's going on in Savannah when you are there because if there's a big event at the convention center, get congested and you may be waiting over an hour to get on the ferry. There's a schedule that they have posted on their website, which is pretty accurate.

I may be generous with 3 stars, but the food was above average to good. The tour itself--the…read morereason you go with a guide--I'd rate 1 or 2 stars. We were supposed to be a very large group of 21, but had 6 no-shows. We started a bit late because of that, but finished nearly an hour late (4 hours vs. the advertised 3). That would have been OK if our quirky guide, Christina, was taking the time to talk about the history of the local cuisine, the details about the food we were eating or the places we were eating it, but we got none of that. At one place our food was waiting for us so we had no-longer-hot pork on mashed potatoes. The name of the tour includes pub crawl, but the beverages were NOT included in the tour. We've been on many food tours in the US and abroad, and I can say with confidence you should skip this particular one.

We took both bus routes and the full loops are really quick, like 30 minutes tops. We took the bus rides just to get an inexpensive sight seeing tour of Savannah. There's no tour guide with a gift for narration, making announcements or story telling. It's just you and the opaque bus windows and the new and beautiful sites to see. Just watch your stuff and puff out your chest like your on the CTA redline, you'll be just fine. Bottom line, it's a quick way to get around and the bus stops are clearly marked.

We loaded up and left promptly. She gave us some knowledge of the area on our way. She talked the entire way of lots of things we passed! We had a disabled person with a walker and she was very considerate and helped her get her walker on and off the trolley and made sure she was first on things and ahead of the group. She also had a cooler of free waters that I thought was very considerate! The itinerary was a bit different than the website I booked from. We went from their office to the boat ride, then lunch, then the lighthouse/beach area then dropped off people at their hotels and then back to their office. She said that the ticket was good for a couple days and that if you called them they would be there within 15 minutes and drop you off where you wanted within an area. We would use this service again!

Called Tybee Turtle Transit because we were stranded thinking they'd be a good alternative, but they didn't answer the phone after three calls. After sitting on the bench in front of a gas station for awhile they eventually called me back, and the bloke who answered couldn't even say, "Tybee Turtle Transit" without getting tongue tied. I asked him the fair for two people from Tybee to Savannah and he said, "$55." I replied "Oh..." a little dejected because it was nearly double what I would have to pay on Uber or Lyft if I could get ride coverage. I went to discuss it with my partner to see if she still wanted to do it. And before she could answer TYBEE TURTLE TRANSIT HUNG UP ON ME. Not Cheap. Not Friendly. Not worth your Time nor Money.

Honestly, you might want to avoid it at all times due to the relentless noise. Between the train tracks running right through the property at all hours, heavy traffic buzzing from nearby roads, and military planes and helicopters rattling the sky all day from your neighboring military airbase, peace and quiet simply do not exist here. Another reviewer suggested using earplugs, but trust me: nothing is going to save your sanity when a full-blown freight train blares its horn at 3 a.m. every morning! We booked way in advance online for a week-long plus stay, only to be placed in a spot with absolutely zero shade. When we asked to move, the head staff, Leslie's favorite catchphrase was "just call us next time." Good to know & thanks so much for this lovely help, Leslie! To cool down, you can always hike an eighth of a mile to their very nice pool. Just be prepared for the "gravel gauntlet" (similar to your site, by the way)--navigating loose rocks in flip-flops while carrying pool gear in the heat isn't much fun. Ultimately, we've stayed in cheaper, friendlier, and much more accommodating places. Unless you really love the blazing sun, constant noise and unhelpful office manager, I'd suggest looking elsewhere.

There is a small fitness center which is a bonus! The bathrooms were clean but dated with squashy floors. We would stay here again if in the area!
