Overview

Noble Jones Architect Tour is an opportunity to walk and learn about Savannah's architecture and the architects behind the buildings. The guest limit is capped at ten people for this tour, giving our guests the opportunity to ask questions and have a more personal experience with our guides. Architecture is the material essence of the city. In just over one century, five men became the soul of the movement to match the beauty of the square design of our city. This tour discusses those architects, their backgrounds and how Savannah came to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world. 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.
