About this tour
See Savannah through the eyes of a local who knows its stories by heart. On this private Savannah History Ride, historian and author Chris Lamb takes you through the city’s historic streets, leafy squares, and riverfront, sharing the history behind the places along the way. Rather than follow a scripted narration, enjoy a conversation: ask questions, pause for photos, and steer the discussion toward the people and events that interest you. Your two-hour ride is private for your group of up to four, with pickup at your hotel, elsewhere in central Savannah, or at SAV airport. Chris is also the author of the Sea Islands Freedom Civil War novels, bringing a writer’s perspective to the stories of the region. This is a driving experience, not a walking tour, and it runs Tuesday and Wednesday during the day. If you’re flying in, ask about arranging airport pickup and drop-off alongside your ride, as well as bundle pricing. Choose this Savannah History Ride for a personal, flexible introduction to the city, guided by someone who calls it home.

How this score is calculated
This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.
How the score works
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
