Welcome...come wander like a local with us

I am so glad to have you here and am delighted to share who we are and what we’re about. I am Jessica Marie, also known as Savannah Gigi. I’ve been a tour guide in Savannah for 10+ years and absolutely love every minute of giving tours. I am so grateful that I am able to make my living as a storyteller.

I decided to pursue my dream of owning a walking tour company after many long inspiring conversations with my mother Marie and my grandmother Marie. You see, I was raised by two generations of strong women, who believed that nothing was impossible. As my mama always says, "If you can envision it, you can create it."

Preserving Savannah one tour at a time

I fell in love with Savannah, its history, charm and culture. I own a home here, have two children and deep roots in this community. I believe in giving back to a city that has given me so much. I greatly admire the eccentric and bohemian, but true southern lady Anna C. Hunter who during the 1950’s banded together to form the “Seven Ladies” who later began the Historic Savannah Foundation. Without their efforts, Savannah was in danger of forever losing its historical buildings and landmarks. Savannah Gigi’s Walking Tours embodies not only the generations of strong women who raised us, but those inspiring activists who helped pave the way for Savannah to be the historic treasure it is today.

My company’s mission is to support preservation efforts
and give back to our community, so you and future generations
can experience the beauty of our hostess city

A premier touring company begins with great guides

During my 10+ years of conducting carriage tours, walking tours and managing a haunted ghost tour company, I developed strong ideas about what a truly great touring experience should be for our visitors. I firmly believe that It starts with the right people. In order to be a tour guide at Savannah Gigi Waking Tours, I require they be certified by the Savannah Tourism Leadership Council. Every guide is chosen for their passion and storytelling ability, with their own special charm making your tour unique. Our requirements and training program ensures historical accuracy resulting in a superior tour experience for you.
