Struttin' Through Time: Must-See Historic Sights
Architectural Eye Candy: Wander the cobblestone streets of the Historic District, where moss-draped squares and antebellum mansions whisper tales of times gone by. Don't miss: Forsyth Park, a sprawling green oasis perfect for a picnic lunch and people-watching.
Haunt Me Once, Haunt Me Twice: Savannah's spooky side is legendary. Embark on a ghost tour, where costumed guides (with questionable accents, mind you) regale you with tales of restless spirits and haunted taverns. Insider tip: For the truly adventurous, try a nighttime ghost hunt with flashlights and EMF detectors (just don't blame us if you wet your pants).
History Buffs Rejoice! Immerse yourself in Savannah's rich past at the Telfair Academy, boasting an impressive collection of art and artifacts. History on a budget? Check out the First African Baptist Church, the oldest black congregation in the South, or the Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist, a stunning example of Gothic Revival architecture.
Beyond the Past: Savannah's Hidden Gems
Art After Dark: Catch a performance at the historic Savannah Theatre, or lose yourself in the vibrant art scene. Hit the jackpot: Explore the galleries around City Market, where local artists showcase their talents.
Brews and Bustles: Savannah's craft beer scene is flourishing. Indulge your inner hophead: Sample local brews at Moon River Brewing Company or Savannah's own craft beer haven, The Distillery.
Island Hopping: Take a ferry to Tybee Island for a day of beach bumming, dolphin spotting, and fresh seafood. Feeling adventurous? Try your hand at kayaking or paddleboarding.
How to Savannah Like a Savannahian (or at least try to)
How to Talk the Talk: A little "bless your heart" here and a "ya'll" there goes a long way. Just don't overdo it, or you might get mistaken for a tourist (gasp!).
How to Beat the Heat: Savannah summers are scorchers. Pack breathable clothing, stay hydrated, and embrace the siestas (afternoon naps) like a true Southerner.
How to Get Around: The Historic District is pedestrian-friendly, but for venturing further afield, consider the Savannah DOT buses or renting a bicycle.
How to Avoid the Crowds: Skip the tourist traps and explore the lesser-known squares like Troup Square or Monterey Square.
How to Embrace the Weird: Savannah is a city that celebrates its eccentricities. Don't be surprised to see a drag queen sauntering down the street or a psychic offering readings on a park bench. Just roll with it and enjoy the ride!
So there you have it, folks! A taste of the magic that awaits in Savannah. Now get out there, explore, and make some memories that'll have you saying, "Savannah, bless your heart, you were somethin' else!"
