A MORE GROWNUP GHOST TOUR
This tour uses mature themes and real history. The stories include crime, violence, and difficult moments from life along the coast. They are told with care, but the details stay honest. Ghost Town Trolley is meant for guests who want something deeper than a simple ghost story.
Some stories may feel unsettling. Some feel like the kind of tales locals only share when the city gets quiet. All of them help explain why Savannah is known as the most ghostly city in America.
ACCESSIBILITY
This experience includes walking, stairs, and uneven ground. Because the tour mixes riding with time off the trolley, Ghost Town Trolley is not wheelchair accessible.
A portion of this tour involves walking and climbing stairs, so comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate attire are recommended.
