Very interesting information, that would be difficult to find out in any other manner. Your guides were very knowledgeable and made the experience fun.
Very informative tour of Savannah River Port. The two women piloting the boat were terrific. They enthusiastically narrated all that we were seeing. Quite impressive to be so close to the big cargo ships and watching the loading and unloading of containers. They explained why the yachts were docked and the process of completing maintenance. This is a tour I would highly recommend.
Very interesting! 😊 Guides were very informative. Saw many giant container ships being loaded and off loaded.
Absolutely fascinating!!! Savannah angling to be the Largest Port in the nation by raising a bridge? Take a guess by how many feet and find out how close you come on your Port Tour! And there is so Much More to Learn and See!!!
This was a very informative tour of the port. We saw huge container ships in operation of loading and unloading cargo. Our tour operators, Conner and Tanner were very knowledgeable, interesting, and personable. It was one of our favorite experiences in Savannah.
Absolutely best tour in Savannah! Great narration! Crew was excellent!!!
It was a great tour. I learned so much and the captain and first mate were excellent tour guides
This was a great tour on the water to see the container ships. We got to see the loading and unloading process (from truck to the ships). Great narration to tell us about the process and workers. We got right up under a ship too - cool!
Our captain and crew were among the best we have had. They were knowledgeable and very personal.
Having driven by the port a number of times in the past, my husband and I were very interested in the actual operation. The tour was very informative and interesting. We were taken up close to the massive ships in order to observe the loading/unloading process. We also saw how the river needs to be continually dredged to allow the depth necessary for the large ocean going vessels. The Captain and mate were very knowledgeable and informative. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone.
