Located along Savannah’s winding Wilmington River, Bonaventure Cemetery covers over 100 acres and has been the final resting place for individuals since 1846.
Your 90-minute sightseeing Segway tour through this amazing place will begin when you meet up with your professional guide who will give you a crash course on how to operate a Segway. Before you know it, you will be zipping around like a pro! You’ll also be equipped with a fun and unique helmet as well as a special radio earpiece so that you can hear everything that your guide has to say.
As you make your way into the cemetery, you’ll cruise below an archway of towering oak trees draped in with blankets of eerily beautiful Spanish moss. During certain times of the year, you may even pass rows of dazzling pink azaleas and other gorgeous flowers. Your guide will share with you the fascinating history of this historic cemetery and point out different examples of its Victorian and Southern Gothic architectural influences.
Follow your guide to some of the area’s most famous graves that may include the engraved bench of popular lyricist, Johnny Mercer, or the masterfully carved statue of little Gracie who died in 1889 just before Easter. Bonaventure is also the final resting place for hundreds of confederate soldiers, veterans of the American Legion, and is home to the nation’s second-largest area dedicated to those who were killed in the Spanish-American War.
