Frequently Asked Questions

Since the tour visits working taverns, guests purchasing drinks should be of legal drinking age; ask about family-friendly options at booking.
Yes, this is booked privately for your own group.
The buildings themselves are real and well-documented — tunnels really were dug beneath some of Savannah's old taverns, and several saw genuine violence in the 1800s. The ghost sightings and hauntings attached to them, however, are told as local legend and personal accounts rather than verified fact.
Once your quote is accepted, we'll confirm your exact pickup time, vehicle, and driver details by email ahead of your tour date.

About This Tour

A private, after-dark walking tour that visits several of Savannah's atmospheric, reputedly haunted taverns. Meet your guide at one of Savannah's atmospheric taverns, purchase a beverage, and set off on foot for a private, after-dark walking tour. Hear about Savannah's history of Civil War battles, murders, and fires, spy a number of historical landmarks, and visit several supposedly haunted pubs along the way.

Savannah's reputation for haunted taverns is built on real, documented buildings as much as ghost stories. The Pirates' House, built as a tavern in 1753 near the Savannah River docks, catered to the sailors and merchants who worked the port and, according to long-standing local lore, to Caribbean pirates and even members of Blackbeard's crew. Tunnels really were dug beneath the property in its early days, running from the rum cellar to a nearby riverfront dock, originally for smuggling liquor and — as the stories go — for "shanghaiing" unconscious sailors onto outbound ships. The building's reputation was strong enough that Robert Louis Stevenson is said to have drawn on it while writing Treasure Island, using it as the setting for Captain Flint's death. After decades as a private residence, it was purchased and restored by the Savannah Gas Company in 1945 and reopened as a tearoom in 1953, gradually becoming the restaurant that still operates there today.

Another building with a genuinely violent past sits inside what's now Moon River Brewing Company. The structure began life as the City Hotel, built in 1821 by Charleston native Elazer Early as Savannah's first hotel and post office, popular enough with the city's elite that naturalist John James Audubon stayed there for more than six months. Real documented incidents followed: in 1832, Dr. Phillip Minis shot local resident James Stark inside the bar after a public feud, and in November 1860 a New York visitor named James Sinclair was dragged out by a mob and beaten nearly to death simply for being a Northerner on the eve of war. The hotel survived the Civil War but sat largely vacant for decades before a 1990s renovation turned it into today's brewery.

Walking tours like this one also move through Savannah's broader history after dark: the catastrophic Great Fire of January 1820, which destroyed roughly 500 buildings downtown, and the city's December 1864 surrender to Union forces under General Sherman, who chose to spare Savannah's architecture rather than burn it — a decision that's part of why so many of the buildings these ghost stories are attached to are still standing to be toured at all. As with any ghost-themed walk, the specific hauntings — glasses thrown by unseen hands, figures glimpsed on front steps — are told and widely believed as local legend rather than documented fact; Savannah's broader "most haunted city" branding traces to a 2003 designation that its own source organization has described as more honorary than scientific.
