On these 3 hour tours, Shannon will regale you in history from mid-18th century Bonaventure Plantation era, the cemetery’s opening hours in 1846, to those spanning the 20th century until present day! All set inside of the most sumptuous natural landscape you’ll ever observe in a cemetery anywhere in the world! Hear about famed figures that have made their mark on Savannah’s history, their connections to The Historic District and world at large! Shannon’s tour in particular is focused on symbols and its hidden language to cemeteries through Freemasonry and other Secret Societies along with religious and artistic meanings.

I’ve taken your after dark tour of the cemetery and have family from the west coat in town. Is there any possibly you could give 8 people a private tour this Saturday after dark. I know you have a 5 o’clock but was hoping for something later. If not, do you still have room at the 5:00 tour.
Hi Debbie! Great to hear from you and will shoot you an email!
Hi if you are giving Debbie’s group a tour would you accept 2 more tag alongs tomorrow night? We have a condo on Skidaway Rd and are here for the next week. Thanks, Jodi
Looking to do a private evening tour with a group 1/1/15. Is this possible?
Hi Kristen,
Sorry missed you but in the future, email me at shannon@shannonscott.com Thanks for reading & Happy New Year!
Hi! We are going to be in Savannah the 10, 11, 12, 2015 Do you have any private night tours we during that time that we might be able to tag along on? I am hoping as a fellow Eastern Illinoisian that maybe you do???
Hi Amber! Thanks for the inquiry. Unless you’re ordering your own Private After Hours, all that is on the regular calendar are daytime but those are great. You just go to http://www.zerve.com/shannonscott to buy the Private Tour option at 2pm. They’re around 2.5-3 hours and flies by fast as its a big place and I keep the energy WAY up the whole time I assure! Now if you want the evening event, from a 5pm to 8pm Privately, I’m happy to discuss that with you via phone but will tell you, that unless you’ve a group of 8 people or more, it comes with a price tag that isn’t everyone’s budget. I do them all of the time for couples and groups, but they also realize the privilege and the value for having one of the world’s most famous Victorian cemeteries opened up just for them. Its not limo life money so to speak, but its not inexpensive either.
We are hoping to do a private tour, 8 people 4/25/15. I know you recommend 2-4 on your private tour. What are your terms for a larger group?
Hi Liza! Really great to hear from you! I’ll email you! Thanks for asking!
Shannon, just want to thank you again for the amazing tour today. You are an excellent orator of the historical significance of the Bonaventure Cemetary. One question…on the tour you mentioned purchasing a map but my wife and I were unable to purchase in the main house. Is there a website we can purchase the map of the Cemetary from?
Thank you again,
Stephen & Lori
My pleasure Steve and thanks for taking the time to say Hello and follow up with a question about The Bonaventure Illustrated Map. See if this link will work for you but it is on Amazon.com https://www.amazon.com/Bonaventure-Cemetery-Illustrated-Michael-Karpovage/dp/0985653248 and possibly make note in the order notes that I recommended it. I’m good friends with the designer and he appreciates such information!
Shannon,
My fiance and I have done a Bonaventure tour with you in the past. We had an amazing time! We are getting married in Savannah on April 7, 2018 and we want to make it a weekend to remember – starting with a tour of Bonaventure. Would it be possible to set up a private tour for 10-15 people April 5, 2018?
Hi Maura! I sent a reply to your email address so you can also email me at shannon@shannonscott.com directly. Thanks!
Shannon
Hi Shannon,
my wife and I are arriving April 7th and want to take the after hours tour that evening. I was wondering if there is the tour and dinner going on that night, or just the tour? would love to do both to start our vacation off proper
thank you, Ron
Hi Ron. The Dinner & A Cemetery event is a private event for groups of 15 or more but the After Hours event is a public event as you noted. Thanks for your interest
