Savannah Ghosts, Voodoo, Murder & Mystery Pub Crawl
Book on Viator →Operated by The American Tour Company, LLC · Bookable on Viator
One walk through Savannah feels like stepping into a ghost story.
This Beer & Boo’s crawl turns that feeling into a guided night with drinks and dark tales in the Historic District. You’ll hit classic bars and spots tied to Savannah’s most unsettling legends, all on a schedule that stays easy to follow for a 2-hour evening out.
I like that you’re not just watching a show. You’re moving between places, hearing murder-mystery ghost lore tied to the buildings, and getting time to socialize along the way. I also like that the stops are all in walking distance and set up for atmosphere: gas-lamp streets, old bars, and the kind of mood you can actually feel.
One possible drawback is that the tour depends on weather. If it’s canceled due to poor conditions, you’ll need to reschedule or take a refund, so I’d plan your evening with a little flexibility.

A 2-hour Savannah crawl with spirits and sips

Savannah at night has its own rhythm. The streets feel quieter, the light feels warmer and older, and every corner looks like it might hide a story you’ve never heard.
This tour leans hard into that feeling. You’re not touring museums or sitting in one place. Instead, you’re bouncing between historic bars and taverns while your guide layers in ghost, voodoo, and murder-mystery style storytelling. The whole thing is timed so you can experience multiple stops without turning the evening into a marathon.
For me, the best part is the mix: you get drinks, you get walking, and you get tales that are meant to keep you alert. It’s the kind of outing that works when you want something more fun than a standard pub crawl, but not so intense that it becomes a full-on haunted attraction.

Columbia Square start: getting your bearings fast
The tour starts at Columbia Square (Savannah, GA 31401) and ends back at the same meeting point. That round-trip setup is practical. You don’t have to worry about coordinating separate rides or finding your way back through the dark after you’ve had a few sips.
It also helps that the start area is described as near public transportation. If you’re using transit, you can aim for the meeting point without guessing which neighborhood streets will be easiest after dark. And if you’re traveling with a service animal, it’s stated that service animals are allowed.
The pace is built for walking. Since it’s about two hours total, expect enough movement between stops that comfy shoes matter. Savannah’s cobblestones can be charming in daylight and annoying late at night, so you’ll feel better if your feet are ready.
Stop by stop: Abe’s on Lincoln to The Rail Pub

This is where the tour earns its keep. Each stop has its own mood, and the guide’s job is to connect the buildings to the stories you’re hearing.
Stop 1: Abe’s on Lincoln
Abe’s on Lincoln is the opening act, and it sets a dark tone right away. The building is presented as a place with a reputation for tragedy and survival in Savannah’s past. Expect a story-forward introduction, where the guide points out the eerie associations tied to the site and builds a sense of dread that fits the night.
You get about 20 minutes here, which is long enough to hear the main story, take a drink, and snap a few photos before the group moves on.
What to watch for: the first stop is when you’re still getting your footing in the tour. Listen closely early—by the second or third bar, you’ll start picking up how the guide connects themes across locations.
Stop 2: Savannah Historic District (Collins Quarter)
After the first stop, you stay in the Historic District atmosphere with a stop tied to Collins Quarter, described as a restaurant and café with a “secret world” vibe in its story framing. This part feels like it broadens the theme: you’re still hearing supernatural-style tales, but the focus shifts toward how old Savannah spaces shaped everyday life—and how that history gets twisted into legends.
This stop is also around 20 minutes, which works because it gives you a chance to settle in after the initial shiver of Stop 1.
Why it’s valuable: you’re not just collecting “scary facts.” You’re getting context for why places feel haunted—because they’re old, and they were used by real people doing real things.
Stop 3: Vice Lounge + Mojito Bar (Vice Bar)
Now the tour turns toward nightlife energy with Vice Lounge + Mojito Bar. The storytelling theme here leans into glamour and the supernatural blend: glamour, intrigue, and that playful sense that the night turns into a different world after dark.
This is your longer stop at 40 minutes, so you can slow down a little. It’s also the kind of place where the tour’s social side clicks. You’ll have time to talk with your group, compare the spookiest story you heard so far, and actually enjoy the drink rather than just grabbing one.
Consideration: if you don’t like louder bar energy, this longer stop might feel like the most intense moment of the crawl. On the flip side, it’s also where the vibe is most party-like.
Stop 4: Totally Awesome Bar
Next is Totally Awesome Bar, framed as a time-travel type of stop where older gaming nostalgia and bar fun mix into the haunted theme. The story tone here is less grim and more playful, with hints that the “spirits” might be about the past you played, watched, or loved.
You’ll spend about 20 minutes here, which keeps it fun. You’re not trapped for long in any one style of atmosphere.
What I’d do: stay present and listen for the guide’s personal storytelling angle. This stop sounds like the kind where the guide’s delivery matters as much as the facts.
Stop 5: The Rail Pub
You finish at The Rail Pub, described as a hidden-feeling spot within the Historic District. This stop leans into craft beer, spirits, and “elixirs,” with bartenders helping guide you through flavors.
It’s another 20-minute stop, so it’s a good close. By now you’ve heard enough stories to feel the theme, and you’ve still got energy to enjoy the drinks.
Why the last stop matters: a final bar with a strong drink focus helps the night land well. You’re ending with something satisfying rather than just rushing out after the spooky finale.
Drinks and social time: the real magic of this format

This tour includes drinks as part of the experience. That detail changes the whole feeling. If you’re walking a haunted route, having something in your hand makes the night more relaxed and social.
It also means the guide isn’t only telling stories. The stories and the drinks run together. In practice, you’ll get chances to chat between stops, and the group size cap of 30 people helps keep that from turning into chaos.
One review detail I found especially fun is that the tour can include playful drink moments, like pickle back shots—that kind of local bar-style ritual turns a generic “ghost tour” into an actual night out. And if your guide is Fiona, you can expect stories with personality and a real knack for keeping the mood entertaining. One spooky highlight shared from a prior tour was the idea of capturing a strange moment on camera. Whether it’s your style or not, it shows the tour leans into memorable, story-shaped experiences—not just a list of scary locations.
Just keep your expectations balanced. This isn’t a silent investigation where every footstep has scientific meaning. It’s a pub crawl built around entertainment and atmosphere, with a guided narrative that keeps you moving and engaged.
Price and value: is $25 a good deal?

At $25 per person, this tour is priced like a “short evening” activity rather than a full-day attraction. For that price, you’re getting:
- A guided walk through multiple historic drinking spots
- Spooky stories that tie those places to legends
- Included drinks
- A mobile ticket you can manage easily
So the value isn’t only the cost. It’s the structure: two hours, five stops, and the guide doing the heavy lifting of connecting the vibe to the stories. If you were to DIY a haunted pub night, you’d still pay for drinks and you’d spend time figuring out where to go and how to sequence it. Here, the order is done for you.
The tradeoff is that food is not included. If you tend to get hungry while walking and drinking, you may want a snack before you go. Also, gratuities for the guide aren’t included, so plan a little extra if the stories and pacing work for you.
Who this tour fits best (and who might want to skip it)

This crawl fits best if you want a lively night with guided storytelling and you enjoy the “walk and talk” style of touring.
You’re likely to enjoy it if:
- you like Savannah’s Historic District atmosphere and want to see it after dark
- you want a quick activity that won’t eat your whole night
- you enjoy group energy, especially when there’s a cap of 30 travelers
- you prefer guided entertainment over self-guided wandering
You might want to think twice if:
- you hate walking on cobblestones
- you’re sensitive to noisy bar environments
- you need a food-included tour (since snacks aren’t included)
- you’re booking during a season where thunderstorms are common and you’d rather not gamble on weather
Weather, timing, and practical tips for a smooth night

Because the tour requires good weather, I treat this as an “evening plan with a Plan B.” The company may cancel due to poor conditions, and you’ll be offered another date or a refund. That matters because you’re outside most of the time, moving between bars.
Timing-wise, it runs about 2 hours. That’s just long enough to feel like you did something, without making you late for other plans. Still, make sure you show up at Columbia Square with a few minutes buffer so you’re not stressed when the group starts moving.
Practical tip from the format: wear shoes you trust for uneven pavement. Bring your phone charger if you’re the type who likes photos—Savannah looks great at night, and if your guide leans into camera-friendly spooky moments, you’ll want your battery to last.
Should you book this Savannah ghost and mystery pub crawl?

If you want a fun, story-driven night through Savannah’s Historic District, I think this tour is worth booking. The $25 price works because the experience is structured: a guided route, multiple stops, and drinks included, all wrapped into a manageable two-hour outing.
Book it if you’ll enjoy bar atmosphere, guided ghost lore, and a group-friendly pace. Skip or delay if weather is shaky and you’d rather not deal with potential rain-driven changes.
My bottom line: if Savannah at night sounds like your kind of adventure, this is a good way to turn that mood into something planned, social, and genuinely entertaining.
