Tara Haunted Tours

Fantastic night out with Tara Haunted Tours! Chad was our guide and he did a fantastic job. He had a great mix of history (which I love) and spooky stories. Tour was a great length and didn’t feel rushed. I am a local and would definitely do it again with out of towners.

Our group of 6 enjoyed the Boos and Brews Tour with Chad. Good mix of history and ghost stories and some great locally owned pubs that may not be on the standard tourist track. Can’t beat walking through Savannah with a to-​go cup and hearing great stories.

Chad was an outstanding tour guide! Very down to earth, and knowledgable. We went to 3 bars, so if I could change anything it would have been more stops.

Went on Monday ¹⁰⁄₁₃ for the boos and brews tour. Jackie was a great guide, well versed in the history of the city and had a good amount of spooky stories she passed along. Getting to go into both the basement and top floor of the Moon River Brewery was a plus. Would recommend if you’re looking for a fun night out.

I do not have enough good things to say about Tara’s Haunted Tours. I booked a Boos and Brews tour with Tara’s for a bachelorette party of 15. She was rated highly on several blogs I read so I figured she was the best of the best. When I called I was able to get right through, no waiting or having to call back or leave voicemails. I booked the reservation immediately and pre-​paid to guarantee our reservation. Payment went through with no problem, la dee da we are all set to go. I call 17hundred90 to make dinner reservations for before the tour only to learn that it is a stop on the tour which was pretty exciting. So we go to dinner at 17hundred90 (which I also HIGHLY recommend) and I get a call from Tara saying that we got a private tour and that our tour guide Jackie would meet us at 17hundred90 so we didn’t have to walk all the way back across town only to come back again. It was such a pleasant surprise. The tour was the perfect length and Jackie was an AWESOME tour guide. She shared the historic ghost tours as well as her own personal paranormal encounters. It was great. All around A+ from all parties involved. We had a GREAT time.
100% recommend Tara’s Haunted Tours.

We booked this Boos and brews tour on our first night in Savannah which was last week, maybe about the 24^th of Sept 2014? Anyhow, I am really glad we did! It was so awesome to be able to walk down the streets and drink beer. And our tour guide I cannot recall his name, but he was awesome. He told us some corny jokes etc. and he took us by some really cool spots, and told us some really cool stories! I don’t want to explain all of it here, because if you go I do not want to ruin it for you. But basically only one strange thing happened to my girlfriend, and I while we were on the tour. And I didn’t really realize it was anything out of the ordinary until later, when my girlfriend who doesn’t believe in this sort of thing had explained it to me. She basically said that at one of our stops her phone completely powered down all on its own. It did not give a 20% or 10% power warning etc. and when she tried to turn it back on it would not turn on. But after we left that place it was able to turn on just fine, and they battery was at 25% and as she says still showing green on the battery. Anyhow we had been taking photos etc all throughout the tour, but we did not catch anything on the photos. But we were unable to take any photos at the last place due to the phone mishap. Her phone also did another very strange thing when we were in Charleston earlier in the week which was unrelated to this tour… But we were driving along with the navigation application she has, and all of a sudden out of no where the voice converted itself to a woman with an English/​British accent. It only converted for one phrase I think it was make a left turn ahead or something to that effect. And then it went back to the normal North American English. We both looked at each other like WTF? Mind you she (my girl friend) does not believe in ghosts, or esp, or anything of the sort. So is she a believer now, NO… but who knows maybe one day she will have an extraordinary that will make her a believer…
Anyhow this was a really great tour, and I would recommend it to anyone who is in Savannah, and looking for something fun, and exciting to do!

It seems wrong not to tour savannah without a ghost tour, so after a bit of research I found Tara Tours through Unilocal.It was our third choice as others err booked up — seriously, plan ahead on this!
It was basically a history tour with spooky stories emphasized. This made my husband happy, while I was hoping for more creepy crawlies. The guide referenced many times in which past tourists were absolutely terrified by his tales… Hmmm. Either I’m hard to frighten, or they were drunk and/​or pussies. Regardless, we had a very personable guide, who was a good storyteller and knowledgable.
The pub stops were a nice way to break up the walking. We started at an Irish pub, did 1790, hit zumzi’s, and ended at moon river. The third stop was a pretty modern looking place with bland history, which made it feel very out of place. Mayhaps if you drink more it’s not so noticeable. We enjoyed having a guide around the night streets and learning more about several sites.

Jim was a great tour guide! He answered every and any question that we threw at him. We were on a Bachelorette Weekend so stopping at a few Pubs along the way was definitely a highlight! This tour is definitely recommended if you’re new to the Savannah area! The stories were great!

If you Google «Ghost Tours in Savannah, GA» you will find a plethora of options, but I am here to let you know that Tara Haunted Tours is the BEST one in the city. If you only have one night to spend in Savannah, GA, I encourage you to try out the Boos and Brews tour with Tara Haunted Tours. If you have more than one night, I encourage you to go twice. My wife and I have taken the tour twice now with Chad, an amazing tour guide, and have loved the experience both times! The tour is filled with stops at local bars and breweries as well as information about Savannah GAs truly creepy past. You will meet at McDonoughs Pub, where you can grab a drink and enjoy some of excellent shrimp and crab dip. Do not miss this tour, and enjoy exploring one of the best cities in the country!

Tara ghost tour was fantastic!
We left promptly at 8pm and the tour guide «Jim» was really great. We had a large group together and Jim really got everyone into the feel of things.
We heard a lot of scary facts and had a great history to them.
We went to a lot of great spots and it stopped at 2 pubs for a short break to get a drink, bathroom and look around and listen to a story and then we would go to out and walk to our next stop.
We saw a few photos that people had taken while we were walking and one woman took a picture and it had a bright orb in it and everyone was really in awe!
Over all we had a great experience and couldn’t have asked for a better ghost tour of savannah.
Thank you Tara!

I am not into this kind of thing, or Halloween, but was talked to a tour for my boyfriends birthday. Such a good decision! Chad was our tour guide and he was amazing! If none of this is true he is the best storyteller. Gives you time to get drinks at the stops. Very good tour.

We had never done a ‘haunted’ tour in a city and this was a lot of fun!
We called the tour office early and then met our guide in front of the Moon River Brewing Company. She was dressed in colonial period costume and actually had a rich family history in the area.
We grabbed a beer inside and headed up to the second floor of Moon River, which is supposedly very, very haunted. People being hit by objects, power tools switching on by themselves, and other stuff. Anyway, we went to two other pubs and then a haunted square where and indian chief is buried and then on over to the 1790 restaurant for a one of the best Planter’s Punch drinks I’ve ever had.
All in all, a really good time. The guide was very knowledgable and was full of fun facts and great stories!
This is a must do for adults in Savannah. Really a neat experience. So glad we did this.

3 stars = met my expectations.
We booked our tour for last night through this group because another tour was already sold out. This tour was billed as, essentially, a pub crawl ghost tour.
My wife doesn’t drink and I am more of a social drinker that might have a drink or two in the evening. I had hopes that the ghost tour presentation of the outing would out weigh the drinking focus of the tour — my expectations were low and they were met.
Drew was our guide and he was interesting enough but clearly not professional in his approach. It seemed that the pubs had a deal with him where if you bring the crowds by we’ll kick a free drink your way. He drank plenty on our trip and by the end of the tour he was beginning to exhibit the effects of his imbibing. He was a little harder to hear and a little less focused.
The drinkers in our group appeared to have a great time. And the highlight of the tour, for me at least, was a visit to Blue Moon and seeing some old, unfinished spaces. That was the only part that was remotely scary.
My wife and I both agreed that this was the equivalent if the «booze cruise» down in Cabo. If you just want an excuse to drink and be mildly entertained this tour is for you.

Did not actually go on the tour; however, the lady who was answering phone on 8÷3÷2012 is not a very happy person and should not be working with people.
We booked the haunted ghost tour the morning we drove to Savannah. It rained all afternoon so we called and cancelled tour 2 hours before. They said tha
