“Meh...”

Reviewed 17 June 2013 NEW

We took a City of the Dead tour last week and it was just OK. I was hoping for more ghost stories, I guess. The guide, Melissa, was great. Very informative, knowledgeable, and friendly. It just wasn't very spooky. I don't think we actually heard much at all about ghosts. There was some interesting info on history and local legends,... More

“Blue Orb Tour Guide was RUDE and accusatory”

Reviewed 9 June 2013

We had booked a Ghost Tour with Sixth Sense. Upon arrival at the "square," we noticed that the tour had already began. We joined in the tour and listened to the first stop summary. The tour guide, a young lady who claimed to be a "parapsychologist" noticed that we had joined her group on the square. She advised folks to... More

“Spooky Savannah”

Reviewed 5 June 2013

We went on the "City of the Dead" tour and Melissa was our tour guide and she did a great job with the tour. We learned more about how Savannah became the most haunted city in the US. So it was a lot of the original history of the city and older hauntings. Melissa really knew her information and was... More

Thank you for reviewing Melissa! She is one of our most popular guides and her City of the Dead tour is often sold out. I'm so glad you chose Blue Orb from among the many tours in Savannah. If you are ever in Savannah again consider taking one of our other tours. We look forward to seeing you! More

“Adults Only Zombie Tour”

Reviewed 31 May 2013

My husband and I decided to stop by Savannah for a night on our way back home from Florida and figured we would try to squeeze in a ghost tour for fun. Last time we came to Savannah, we took the Sixth Sense Ghost Tour and whilst that was a lot of (and has to be said extremely spooky at... More

I'm so glad you enjoyed your tour with Tobias. He is without question the most in-demand guide in Savannah and a true pro at fielding questions. Most of all, he loves what he does. There are many tours in Savannah and we are truly grateful you chose us. We know that our guests are why we get to do what... More

“Highlight of Savannah”

Reviewed 30 May 2013

My husband and I took the 10pm tour on 05/25 with Tobias, and it was great. It was one thing to explore the city on our own, but it was another thing to explore it in a narrative & haunting perspective. It really summed up my experience of Savannah as I was able to get a better perspective of the... More

Tobias has definitely cause many sleepless nights with his story delivery and creepy content. Tobias is one of the few tour operators that actually conducts tours and his love for it comes through. Thank you for choosing us and I hope we will have the pleasure of touring you again when in Savannah. More

“Blue Orb tours”

Reviewed 29 May 2013

I was on this tour on May 17 2013, I have been on many ghost walks, this was far the worst. I was disappointed, the guides voice was clear, but very boring, and was not able to keep my attending, and I was not drinking. She made rude comments about other tours which were not called for. The tour started... More

“Blue Orb Ghost Tours”

Reviewed 28 May 2013

Melissa was an excellent tour guide! She knows her Savannah history and it seems she knows all the hidden or "not talked about" stories. We learned a lot on our tour and I would definitely take the tour again.

My wife and I took the midnight zombie tour on May 25, 2013. The tour was led by Tobias, the founder of Blue Orb. This tour was easily the highlight of our trip to Savannah. Not only were the stories he told very interesting, but he had pictures, documents, and gave us information to look up video footage to back... More

“Great Ghost Tour”

Reviewed 24 May 2013 via mobile

My husband really wanted to go on the Zombie Tour with Tobias. I was hesitant about the $35 per person price tag, but it turned out to be one my favorite things we did in Savannah! The tour ran a little longer than two hours (which I didn't mind). The walk wasnt especially leisurely, but i am 7 months pregnant.... More

You will never regret paying for quality. We do offer great tours for $20 and the Uncensored tour with Tobias is one of the most expensive in town but for good reason. Not only do you get the benefit of someone who is sought out more and more often by film, TV and radio for his knowledge of all things... More

“Excellent tour, even with many unanticipated interruptions”

Reviewed 19 May 2013 via mobile

I cannot sing the praises of this tour enough. Tobias obviously has a passion for his line of work and it shows. He was knowledgable about the material and was very personable. Tonight the tour experienced many unanticipated interruptions, ranging from singing pedestrians, food trucks, drive by insults, and even a helicopter with a spotlight, and Tobias didn't miss a...

Thank you so much for hanging in with me through all of the distractions. Unforeseen and unavoidable though they were, we made it through with flying colors and it was only possible by everyone's patience and sense of humor about the evening. It makes what I do a pleasure when I am touring with great folks like you. I hope... More
