Savannah Historic District Tour by The Wandering Historians
Overview
There's good reason Ken Burns' American Journeys tour selected us as contract recipients - we've been unearthing and telling the untold story of Savannah for over 30 years now. That's who we are. We do this through capable historians, librarians, writers, archivists, genealogists, and storytellers who have met the strictest standards of Shannon Scott. Hopefully, that speaks to you. We begin at the beginning in Savannah's Colonial areas and weave not just the parables, but the next great story chapters of Georgia's earliest settlers from ancient mound builders, Indians, Europeans, and Africans and the story of its architects, religions, women, Industrialists, Freemasons, epic wars and much more in what will become your favorite history tour! All told by colorful characters themselves through their own eyes of understanding with humanity, intellect, humor, and everything that encompasses one of America's and The South's greatest, perhaps most surprising city melting pot of stories!
