Savannah
Oak-draped squares, ghost tours, and Southern hospitality.
The overview
Savannah enchants with its moss-draped oaks and antebellum charm, perfect for a long weekend escape. This historic Georgia city offers a captivating blend of Southern hospitality, rich history, and vibrant arts. Explore cobblestone streets lined with beautifully preserved architecture, indulge in world-class Southern cuisine, and soak in the lively atmosphere of River Street. Don't miss the blooming azaleas in spring or the festive holiday lights in winter, though fall offers the most pleasant temperatures for walking. For a three-day trip, basing yourself in the Historic District is ideal, putting you within easy walking distance of most major attractions, shops, and restaurants. Consider the Victorian District for a slightly more residential feel with charming B&Bs, still close enough to the action. An insider truth most guides miss is that while the squares are beautiful, venturing slightly off the beaten path into neighborhoods like Ardsley Park reveals more authentic local life and stunning residential architecture without the tourist crowds.
