| Tour Savannah's historic district, the largest internationally
recognized American historic district in the country at 2.2
square miles, circa 1733. Discover a wide variety of walking, trolley,
horse drawn carriage, biking, and pedicab tours as you become intimately
familiar with our "Olde English" designed city plan. Enjoy
our seamless integration of the district's 23 garden squares, River
St., and City Market into one of the "top 10 walking cities" in
the country.
Upon your arrival, you will immediately understand why Conde Nast Traveler
has rated the city of Savannah as one of the "top 10" USA
city destinations for six straight years! The historic district
features all manner of historic homes, various architectural styles traceable
to their unique influences over the past 200+ years, many fine restaurants,
shops, and live entertainment.
Plan to stay several days to take advantage of all
the attractions in and out of the district highlighted by the ongoing
restoration of many historic buildings spearheaded by the Savannah College
of Art and Design (campus is scattered throughout the historic district
with 40+ buildings), the beaches of Tybee Island just 20 minutes away
by car, haunted houses, ghost tours, riverboat cruises, personalized
boat charters, dolphin watching, art museums, cemeteries, outdoor music,
and old forts.
 Interested in military
history and WWII? Visit the inspiring and educational "Mighty 8th" Air
Force Museum right near the airport. And, the fascinating Civil War era
Fort Pulaski, designed by Robert E. Lee, is found on the highway out
to Tybee Island. Have an extra day or two? Use Savannah as your starting
point for a day trip to Hilton Head (45 minutes away), enjoy the beaches
and communities of Georgia's Golden Isles off Brunswick, or head on up
to historic Charleston.
Savannah is, everyone agrees, a very special place with a feel and look
and charm that personifies "escape". Make it your next
getaway destination. |
