What You Will Do
Noble Jones Architect Tour is an opportunity to learn about Savannah's architecture and the architects behind the buildings. The guest limit is capped at ten people for this tour, making this the only semi-private tour in Savannah, GA. This gives our guests the opportunity to ask questions and have a more personal experience with our guides.
Architecture is the material essence of the city and in a little over a century. These five men became the soul of the movement to match the beauty of the square design of our city.
This guided walking tour of the historic district includes an examination of the historic homes and buildings from 1817 through 1923. An interpretation of the architect's works and contributions to the city is discussed.
