Savannah, Georgia’s Bonaventure Cemetery offers an unexpected outdoor adventure where history and landscape intertwine with an eerie serenity that commands attention. Spanning 100 acres, this Victorian-era cemetery was once the grounds of a sprawling plantation and now serves as a rich outdoor museum marked by striking sculpture, towering oak trees, and centuries-old graves. Adventure Tours in Motion invites visitors to glide through this remarkable site aboard a Segway, combining ease of access with immersive storytelling during a 90-minute narrated tour.

As you quietly cruise the shaded paths, your guide reveals the stories behind intricate statuary and mausoleums that echo Savannah’s complex past—from Civil War legacies to the lives of influential local families. The gentle hum of Segway motors and the dappled light filtering through moss-draped oaks create a contemplative atmosphere rarely found in urban outdoor recreation.
This tour is an ideal option for travelers seeking a blend of light physical activity, cultural enrichment, and tranquil outdoor scenery. Unlike hiking or strenuous trails, the Segway lets you cover more ground comfortably, making it accessible to a broad range of visitors. Situated just minutes from Savannah’s historic district, Adventure Tours in Motion taps into the city’s growing outdoor tourism scene by offering a fresh way to experience one of its iconic landmarks.
