Kelse was a Fabulous guide. We had a great few hours learning about the history of the city and all of the various types of architecture throughout. He answered all our questions, had fun stories and pointed out details we would never have noticed on our own. Highly recommend.

Everything was memorable! The guide was knowledgeable and witty! He was very thorough and spent a lot of time explaining the architects styles and lives, which helps you remember. This tour was a full two hours of walking but could easily be longer due to all the beautiful homes and buildings.

The guide was friendly and knowledgeable. I was hoping this tour company specialized in architecture but it appears the business gives a variety of different tours and this was one.
I just felt like there was something missing. Perhaps I was hoping for more of the history of the architecture/development of the whole city rather than a focus on a few architects. I was hoping to understand Savannah through its architecture and felt I didn’t get enough of that overall.
At any rate. Well done. Just not perfect, imo.

Kelse was an excellent tour guide. He was of course fun and engaging, but the deep knowledge he had as a result of all of his research, beginning with the city founding and showing examples of the work of the most popular architects in Savannah along with Sharing biographical information and timelines made the history come alive.

Ed was a terrific guide, an architect with solid knowledge of the field, and of the architects, the buildings, and Savannah history. The buildings we visited were fairly closely spaced, so this was not an arduous walk.
