This is Savannah's only Women's History Tour conducted inside of the city's only true Victorian cemetery. Buried within are some of the most colorful, adventurous and influential women of the 19th century. From Girl Scout Founder, Juliette Low, Florence Martus aka The Waving Girl to Jewish Civil Wartime Nurse Phoebe Pember or the loving benfactress muse of poet-painter, Kahlil Gibran, Mrs. Mary Haskell-Minis, its nothing short of remarkable that so much female empowered women ended up in one cemetery!

Q&A

Q: Is there a specific age limit for kids on the Ladies of Laurel Grove tour?

A: There's no strict age limit, but I'd recommend this tour for teens and up. The stories can be a bit intense given the historical context. Plus, younger kids might not appreciate it as much. Just ensure they can walk the cemetery paths comfortably!

Q: What should I wear for this tour? Is it mostly walking?

A: Comfort is key! Wear comfortable shoes since you'll be walking on uneven surfaces in the cemetery. Light layers are ideal because it can get warm, and you might be out there for a while. Don't forget sunscreen if it's sunny!

Q: Can this tour get canceled due to bad weather? How will we know?

A: Yes, the tour can be canceled for severe weather like heavy rain or storms. If that happens, they usually notify you via email or phone, so keep an eye on your inbox before the tour. It's best to check the forecast too!

Just did the Ladies of Laurel Grove tour - it was eye-opening!

I went on the Ladies of Laurel Grove Women's History Tour last weekend in Savannah, and wow! The stories about Juliette Low and others were incredible. The cemetery is beautiful, but also kind of eerie in a good way. I loved how passionate our guide was! If you're thinking about a gift for someone who loves history, this is a must-do. Just make sure they can walk around for a bit since it’s a cemetery.

Considering the Ladies of Laurel Grove as a gift - any tips?

I'm thinking of gifting the Ladies of Laurel Grove tour to my friend who’s a history buff. Has anyone done it recently? I want to know what to expect, especially about the guide's vibe and if they offer good info. Also, is it a good length?
