Your day begins with a tour of one of the most beautiful cemeteries, the Bonaventure Cemetery, dating back to 1846. You'll learn about the lives of notable inhabitants like Academy Award-winning songwriter Johnny Mercer, Georgia’s first governor Edward Telfair, philanthropist Mary Telfair, as well as the tragic tales of poet Conrad Aiken and Gracie Watson.
