Walk With Me Savannah Tours offers immersive, two-hour walking tours that introduce visitors to Savannah’s layered history, botanical beauty, and under-told stories. The company operates three distinct experiences: a History Tour that explores influential figures, architectural trends, and key events with opportunities to sit and listen; a Botanical Tour that guides guests through Savannah’s iconic squares and gardens to highlight notable plants, traditional uses, and intricate ironwork; and Rising Voices, a tour focused on black, native, queer, and female trailblazers that presents their narratives in their own voices.
