Daniel, the tour guide, decided to indoctrinate us with an hour of his political views and opinions on slavery, vilifying the owners of this historic home AND current political topics he does not agree with. I don't care about Daniels personal views on anything.
I'm going to rant!!!!
My wife and I enjoyed our tour guide Jason and loved every minute of walking throughout the grounds. Truly another beautiful home within the city.
Great tour with information that was really interesting and all the way to present date. Not rushed or boring.
To finalize the tour from hell, when guests were asked if they had questions he rudely responded with a condescending attitude making me not want to ask or know anything more. We waisted $45. It was so much more than disappointing. It was infuriating!!!
Such a beautiful home accompanied by an informative and educational tour. I simply love how each tour guide is able to present the historical narrative of the home in their own style. Our tour guide, Daniel, did a wonderful job. Understanding the history of the home in contextualization with Savannah during the early 19th century is very important with this house, and Daniel provided thorough detail not only of the home, but more importantly of the slaves who worked there and whose story had been lost for much of history. When visiting a historic home in the south, it is important to understand the lives of ALL who worked and lived there, and Daniel did a great job of conveying that history. I would 100% recommend this house to anyone touring Savannah!
I welcome facts on the hardship of the slaves and feel great compassion for them but I don't need/want to have ALL Upper Class historical figures ignored, vilified or removed to be PC.
Raymond Franklin was our tour guide. He was excellent and very informative. This home is a must see while your in Savannah.
I learned almost nothing about the owners, the architect and the history of the house itself. We never heard where they came from and how old they were, about their children, what became of them. Nothing!
I have toured dozens of historical homes all around the country and I've never walked out MAD.
