The 49 best things to do with kids in Savannah

This place is incredible. It is definitely different than any other children’s museum we’ve been to, but in a good way. It’s all outdoors. There is a walk from parking but you get to see the trains without having to pay train museum admission (which was sufficient for my toddler lol). When we visited, there was a water table, sand kitchen and garden that my kiddos particularly loved. We stayed around 2 hours and basically had to drag my kid out - he would have stayed in the sand kitchen forever. It is smaller and I think geared more towards younger kids, but if that what you have then they’ll LOVE it. I could see us coming back again if we were in the area. It was only April and warm - I am sure it gets HOT in the summer as there is minimal shade and it’s all outdoors. Bring your own water bottles - there are vending machines but they were sold out of all drinks when we went and they do have fountains to fill bottles.

It's a nice place but be aware that it's all outdoors and it gets very hot in the summer months. There is a train car with toys and AC to cool down in and there's if a water fountain. Staff is really sweet and friendly, they taught my girls about Pogo the yellow bellied slider today. Train portion is currently under construction so that was a bit of a bummer but we'll try to come back when it's open. It would be amazing if they could put in some more convenient bathrooms, but they do have some in the building next to the children's portion.

We had a great experience. The staff were very informative and friendly. I only wish the kids had an opportunity to explore the inside of the trains. There is plenty for the kids to do, even a great play area for them. Id recommend for a great family day for sure.

My daughter had a great time! Very unique experience however because it is an outside museum, I would suggest more water exploration because it’s so hot in Savannah. The staff we interacted with were nice.

I have mixed feelings about this museum. The advertised “opening in late 2025” for the first indoor expansion definitely doesn’t include early November, so we only had access to the outdoor area. Unfortunately, it could use some TLC. The tube slide was broken, parts of the maze and other sections looked worn out, the garden had rotting food, and the water table looked stagnant and wasn’t being used. For $48 for a family of four—especially for an outdoor-only experience, I left feeling disappointed. I honestly wish I had just paid a few dollars for parking and taken my 4- and 3-year-old to a nearby playground instead.

It's a great space for my kid. He enjoys the little kitchen set up in the nook area and plays chef with me. He also loves spending time at the water table pretending to fish. The staff is so kind and welcoming, making sure both kids and parents have a great experience.

This place was perfect for my daughter's birthday party. The private train car was much more sizable than the pictures show and the gaggle of 8 year old kiddos all had a blast with the museum and the train ride. Staff was awesome and everything went off without a hitch. Definitely recommend this place for parties or just to bring your kiddos for a great time!

We were a little surprised at how small and dilapidated this museum is being that it’s the Georgia State Museum. With that said, it’s still a place to see a few locomotives, rail cars and passenger cars. There is a blacksmith shop and the machine shop to view. We walked the entire ground, seeing everything too to bottom and were done in about 30 minutes… We try to see all state train museums and we’ve been to more than 40 states, some are huge!! This is just ok. Probably pretty fun for younger kids.

We visited on a school field trip. The kids had a great time. This visit was very informative and interactive. Staff were very pleasant and great with the kids. I only wish the kids had the opportunity to explore the inside of the trains.

Our tour guide Jan made for an incredibly informative and entertaining experience! His knowledge, enthusiasm and love for this location and its deep history made the entire building complex come alive. We are very lucky this location is still intact and local historians like Jan offer tours to the general public.

I enjoyed learning about the history of the railroad system, and appreciated how well everything has been preserved over the years. I came at a time when there was no guided tours available, so I did not get the full story out of all of the exhibits. Also, most of this museum is outdoors which was an issue during my visit when it was extremely hot.

You need to do the guided tour to see anything interesting here. Its Mostly outside so beware the heat! The guided tour thing makes sense, but they don't have anything posted on the website about when the guided tours begin or even that they existed. The only guided tour the website mentions is the Train Ride. You need to do the Guided tour to: - See the inside of the Executive Rail Cars - To do the Handcar - To see the Steam Engine demonstration Most of the buildings are pretty empty sans a few old machines which are cool. They had a few neat locomotives. You can go in the cab of some of them. The architecture was cool to walk through!

Took our 2 boys to this. We got the tickets to ride the real life train.. short ride but a great experience for the young kids (3.5 &1.5). They have a wonderful giftshop for activities or toys. The children's museum is there as well and had a great activity going on. Good to plan on 2- 3 hrs worth of activity. My son was able to be on his balance bike the whole time other than the train ride so that kept him engaged. We will be back

The Georgia State railroad museum is a must-visit if you are in Savannah and have any interest in historical machinery and trains. Mason and the crew here was interesting and shared a significant amount of historical information about the site and the trains. Admission includes the opportunity to ride on a rail car pulled by a functional diesel electric locomotive, including two trips on the roundabout. Well done, visit here, highly recommended.

The lady at the ticket booth was very friendly. If it were not for her this would be a 1 star review. The cost is very reasonable, but I was expecting to see more animals. For the length of the trail, there are very few animals. And the few they had, many were hiding, in vet care or for whatever reason the exhibit is closed. It was pretty hot when we came as well, in the mid-80’s so by the time we were halfway through we were dripping in sweat. The first half of the trail was somewhat enjoyable but after that it was just torture. Very few animals and we just wanted it to end! If you like walking a lot and sweating a lot, go for it. If you like seeing lots of animals, go somewhere else.

A great way to spend a few hours outside, taking a walk and seeing animals. The wildlife trail is very pretty to walk through with a few different stops to sit. This place is also affordable at $5 for adults, I definitely recommend.

Amazing place! Spent about an hour and a half here but you could easily spend three hours here especially with kids. It's $5 a person and totally worth every single penny. The trails are beautiful. Tons of Spanish moss. There is a vending machine. There's restrooms in the visitor center and then about 40% through the trail is another. You park in the lot and then walk around or through the visitor center to get to the trails, once you're on it, it's not confusing at all.

This is a great location for children to learn about many different animals varying from wolves to eagles. It was hot so bring plenty of water and be sure to take breaks. The trail is about 2 miles long and offers some shade.

What an absolute great time, and for a low entry price! This is an absolute must if you have children and are looking to burn a couple of hours. The inside is relatively small and short, but the outside walking trail is a nice long easily 2 hour walk full of animals and experiences. We enjoyed the small aquatic display inside and the cute gift shop, but the real hit was the farm area with all the various animals, cows, donkeys, sheep, goat, chickens, pigs, turkeys, and a few others really drew the whole thing in and made it a great stop for our toddler. DOWNSIDES. The walking trail while accessible, is very rough in some spots and not the best in others so it can be challenging briefly. Come prepared with bug spray, water, and fans depending on the time of year, and you should be good to go.

What a great place to spend a lazy Sunday. They have a great selection of animals including bison, owls, deer and more! Make sure to check out the cougar exhibit as well! They were very active. Nice cute gift shop too. Very cheap admission too! Would definitely visit again sometime soon!

What a wonderful walk on the nature trail. Some of the animals (cats) were hiding because of time of day but I enjoyed scenery and many birds. My watch read 2.31 miles for the total loop from the visitor's center.

Beautiful place to go for a walk, have a picnic, or just chill on a bench and people- watch or read a book! The trees are absolutely amazing!!! They also have a really cool farmers’ market on Saturday mornings with fresh produce, of course, and much more - food, art, various artisan goods, and fun, quirky surprises waiting to be discovered!

This is where I'd go daily if I were living here. What a fantastic park to have an afternoon stroll, relax at one of the beaches and people watch, or find a little spot on the grass to end the day. Great history too and is famous with many films featuring the park.

Don't miss this stop. It's breath taking. Beautiful old oaks adorn this park and create an inviting place to read, nap or people watch. You could bike and run, but not this time :). Water fountain was being repaired so no water works. But beautiful non the less.

Forsyth Park is such a beautiful and dynamic place! There’s always something going on. people having picnics, kids playing, sports, and sometimes even live music. The vibe is amazing, full of life and good energy. It’s a perfect spot for walking, relaxing, or just spending time outdoors.

This park is fabulous! It’s a busy place on Saturday with soccer, ultimate frisbee, tennis, basketball, and anything else you can imagine. It also features a wonderful market along the central, live oak-line walkway. The fountain is beautiful and there’s construction happening and it looks like maybe a new zen garden is coming. There is a stage and I’d love to come back for a concert one day. Locals and visitors should take advantage of this amazing outdoor space early and often!

Beautiful park and it should be one of the first places to visit when you are in Savannah. There is also free parking by the tenis courts and free bus that can take you from there to the waterfront and free ferry wich is great for sightseeing the whole downtown area.

What a massive park in the middle of the city. An amphitheater, which I bet is awesome on a nice summer night. The trees cover the walkway to the fountain, which is a beautiful backdrop for photos.

I will be the first to acknowledge that I am fluent in hyperbole, but Leopold's is legitimately the best ice cream I've had in my 29 years and 223 days on planet Earth. We were finishing off a couple martinis and quickly google searched "ice cream near me," and I nearly choked on an oyster when Leopold's popped up with 4.7 stars on 13,505 google reviews. Those numbers are UNPRECEDENTED... 2006 Kobe Bryant numbers. 2012 Calvin Johnson numbers. We made the short walk over on a blessed Sunday afternoon and were met with no line. I taste tested 4 different flavors, and the staff was so helpful in recommending, and more importantly, not recommending things based on my pallet. I can't remember the exact flavors I got, and for that I am sorry my dear reader. I have failed you. 1 scoop was their variation of cookies and cream, and the other was some peanut butter cookie kind of flavor that was blessed by the hand of Zeus himself. This was the perfect ice cream. It was so good that my girlfriend and I were on facetime the other night trying to see if they ship nationally, which they do but you need to buy 5 pints. Worth it tbh. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__ Substack @johnnynovo

I always enjoy going to this old fashion cream parlor. I always meet people in the line visiting Savannah from different places. The staff is always nice. The ice cream is great. I always like getting the rum bisque. There is an area where you can sit down and enjoy your ice cream. They offer a variety of flavors. There is always seasonal flavors. They always have a line for this place. I drive over an hour to get ice cream here. Some things are just worth it. The brownie sundae is one of them. .

Delicious. We had the two scoop brownie sundae and single scoop with toppings. It was great. We paid $16. When we go to an ice cream shop down by our home in South Florida the prices would’ve been double. Free water. Bathrooms were clean. Great atmosphere and everyone is so friendly.

As a self proclaimed ice cream connoisseur, I can absolutely say this lives up to the hype. I came back two days in a row and the child size cup was perfect. Highly recommend the German chocolate and peanut butter chip flavors. And they will let you taste a bunch of flavors too and still manage to keep the line moving fast!

I admit I am not huge ice cream fan. I can usually take it or leave it. But I had heard of this place and it was a stop on a hop on hop off tour I was on so I had to stop by. It was hands down the best ice cream I have ever had! I got the kiddy size Lemon Custard and it was so creamy and lemony but not over powering. 10/10 recommend if you are in the area!

From the moment we stepped in, the staff was incredibly attentive and gave us samples of various flavors. The ice cream was very smooth and decadent. The portion was great, too! I appreciate that they kept some of the original flavors from 1919, like their lemon custard and tutti frutti. I didn’t try either, but I could imagine the tutti frutti with the pieces of candied fruit in it being a favorite from that time. My grandfather loved rum cake with candied fruit in it, so it seems to fit the time of the store. I got the Savannah Socialite and Cookies^2. The pecans were the perfect texture: not too crunchy, not too soft. It was very rich. One scoop of that was enough. I couldn’t have eaten two because it would have been too much richness. Having the second scoop be Cookies^2 was perfect. The vanilla was made with tiny bits of cookie dough throughout (I mean super tiny. They called it their chocolate chip cookie ice cream with cookie dough in it.) I would definitely come back here regularly if I lived nearby. The vibe was very cool, too. Very old style with red everywhere. It felt like a step back in time. They even have what looked like a functioning jukebox!

It was pretty awesome going here and getting a little blast from the past as well as modern ice flavor choices coupled with friendly and energetic service. I believe our servers name was Ashley and she was so amazing. I typically prefer fruit based ice creams and I didn't see much in the counter that appealed to me but Ashley said, oh we have more than just this and asked questions about what I liked and recommended the fruit sundae and even asked if we wanted it in a glass bowl, thats where the nostalgia really kicked it. I seriously want to go back to Savannah just to get this ice cream and see these awesome people. Thank you for creating an experience that will stay with me for the rest of my life. I will never forget the kindness and that big smile Ashely greeted us with. There was also a gentleman that would check on everyone in the dining area and he was so cool and friendly, also smiling the entire time. I didnt catch his name but it was clear to me that him and Ashley truly enjoyed working there. Also, this was probably the best strawberry ice cream ive ever had in my life.

As a former Girl Scout (nearly 30 years ago) I've wanted to visit JGL Birthplace for a while. I ordered a ticket online just in case, but I probably could have purchased it before the tour started. Just walking into the lobby transported me to my GS days and I felt gratitude for this woman that provided an opportunity for girls that she probably had no idea would expand so far and wide. Our group was kind of small, about 9 of us. Two of which were GS (Daisy and Brownie) in their little vests. Our tour guide was really great and the pacing of the tour was perfect. The information presented was not overwhelming and I learned so much about Juliette Gordon Low. Finding out the beyond founding Girl Scouts, she was a very accomplished artist and a loved nature. I absolutely recommend any current AND former Girl Scouts (no matter how old) to visit the Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace Museum.

The tour guide was really knowledgeable. That part is awesome!! Down side is the poor AC, and you really don’t see a ton of the house. It’s just the main floor and 4-5 rooms. No upstairs and they renovated what was the original kitchen in the basement into like a guest waiting room so kinda disappointed on that front.

Being a Girl Scout myself when I was young this tour was so much fun. Our guide was great!!! Really enjoyed ourselves.

What an amazing place! We came here on a GS trip from Utah and the guided tour was really incredible. Our tour guide was funny, thorough and informative. Our girls had a great time! My only tidbit of feedback would be that the game played upstairs be explained more/better. We were all so confused and it seemed like such a random game to play. No one knew what we were really doing. Thanks for a great time!

Went with my family. Me and my daughters are Girl Scouts but weren’t able to go with our troop last year. The tour was interesting and enjoyable. The tour guide was nice and knowledgeable. We got our pins and a few other things. Would recommend.

Great story. Beautiful home and interiors. If you're a Girl Scout, a must see. Gift shop is worth the stop.

This is a gorgeous old home with lots of history. It has been perfectly preserved and well cared for. Our docent was a tremendous asset.

Love the inner closed streets for wandering. Music seemed to be playing everywhere which gave a great atmosphere! The bathroom situation is less than ideal, everywhere says market closes at 6, but by 530 info center was closed. Need a key for the public bathroom in the artist building but artist shops have notes saying no key;don’t ask 🤷‍♀️. Birds cookie shop had SUPER friendly staff. The candy shop did not. Pizza smelled delicious and I regret not trying it! Was a fun time to walk around and enjoy a little time!

Interesting place. Dog and adult beverages friendly. Lots of shops and places to eat. The pizza at Vinnie's was delicious. A very pleasant way to spend a couple of hours before dinner.

The flags that were on display said "Fall in Love with the City Market" and that was an easy one for us! This market was huge with most buildings having two floors loaded with unique and bougie shops, art galleries, food specialties, and much much more. Proprietors were so friendly and informative and attentive to your curiosities and we were in no pressure for time to leave any shop not visited. A must if you're ever visiting the downtown Savannah area!

This place was an unexpected treat! Reminded me of 'The French Market' in New Orleans! More open air than the French Market. Wide pedestrian only streets made walking easy. Nice clusters of retail shops, art galleries, and restaurants of every type. Better yet, this place stays open til 10pm! Yes, It's a tourist trap but it's NOT a bunch of 'Made in China' crap! It ALL local craft persons selling well-made, functional items. Check out the gorgeous bags made of recycled sail cloth! The shoe place next door was awesome! In need of a sugar fix? FREE PRALINE SAMPLE just down half a block! While I still yearn for New Orleans, this place was a lovely substitute! I was in Savannah 2 days during which I went to VINNIE'S 3 times. It's that GOOD! IT'S ALL GOOD!!!!

Get your walking shoes on! Block after block. Great covered open market. Many wonderful artisans. Has something for everyone!!! Spices, soaps, handmade jewelry & Gullah baskets. Leather purses - wallets. So much more too!

Not a hotel. Small shopping and eating district near historic downtown Savannah. Great for a date night or a fun afternoon! The art gallery is really cool!

Check out the City Market when you are visiting Savannah. Great restaurants and shops. Played pool in one of the bars and enjoyed the square.

Beautiful cemetery! Duration: 1 hour Parking: free (I recommend just parking at the entrance and roaming) There is really no need for a paid tour guide. Simply ask your AI if choice to give you a tour of the major points of interest.

Bonaventure Cemetery is the most beautiful and unusual cemetery I’ve ever seen. The huge oak trees draped in moss give it such a mysterious atmosphere… so many beautiful sculptures… so peaceful and timeless.

Beautiful cemetery with a lot of history. Great place to walk around and get some exercise here. You can donate a few bucks and they will give you a map. Very nice in the summertime

Beautiful cemetery with dramatic views of moss draped live oaks and ornate gravestones and monuments. Worth a visit if you are staying in nearby Savanah. For horror movie buffs, Lucio Fulci taped a few scenes here for his 1980 move, City of the Living Dead.

Absolutely amazing. My partner and I travel the world focusing on famous cemeteries. This one did not disappoint. Make sure to get a map from the front office. Sections C through H are where most of the interesting internments and statues are

This historic cemetery still has active burials occuring within its bucolic and gently rolling terrain, amidst many old, beautiful and diverse trees and shrubs. The depth of history here goes back to colonial times with many different types of monuments, mausoleums and gravestones present. Some of the property borders the waterfront making for a diverse experience overall. Quietly walking these hallowed grounds is both solemn and touching.

As cemeteries go, this one is quite unique and visually interesting to see! Pictures don’t quite do it justice. Free to visit. I recommend driving inside and finding a spot to park and walking around for a bit. Then you can get back in your car and drive through the rest. Some very old graves here going back to the 1800s if not 1700s. A great variety in the various headstones and monuments and tombs, etc., and all the magnolia trees and Spanish moss just give it a very unique atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

The trolley tours are awesome with very knowledgeable and entertaining guides. The one guide was absolutely hilarious and you could tell he enjoyed what he does. He had us laughing the entire time. He has the authentic Georgia southern accent to set the tone of the entire tour. DA was the best trolley guide they have so they definitely need to hang on to him. We saw a lot of beautiful and historic sites. It was very enjoyable! Thanks DA!

We had the best time . It’s a great way to see the whole area and the ability to stop and get off when you want to. Deion was a great host . He was very funny and kept it entertaining for the crowd. We also had another driver and I can’t remember his name but he was also great. Was very upbeat and was singing to the crowd. They were both amazing. Definitely do this tour if in Savannah. You won’t regret it.

My boyfriend and I LOVED the hop on & hop off trolley! The drivers/tour guides were safe, so charming and informative. I recommend the Prohibition Museum and Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist. So fun seeing the Forest Gump filming spot. We would love to live in Savannah one day! 5/5 recommend especially if this is your first visit to the city. Trolleys arrive to each stop quickly - we didn’t wait too long at all.

Jared the trolley driver made this trip so excellent! He was informative, friendly and welcoming. It was a truly wonderful experience! Savannah is such a beautiful city and this is the way to see and learn about it. Highly recommended! Look for Jared.

I honestly had no desire to do this tour because I thought it was a tourist trap. However, the person I was traveling with really wanted to do it, so we did. It was honestly such a great tour! You learn so much history about the city and the buildings. You can also hop on and hop off as much as you'd like, which made it super convenient. We hopped on and off a lot so we had a lot of different drivers and all of them were amazing! If you're in Savannah, I definitely recommend doing this tour!

We took the Old Town Trolley Tour 8 years ago. We liked it so much that we decided to take it again. We had a fantastic time from 11AM to 5:30PM. We had three different drivers on 10/10/25. Ellis was our favorite as he provided us with a comprehensive, congenial history of the city as we traveled to 16 stops in 90+ minutes. He also recommended an excellent place for lunch, which we enjoyed. We also ate dinner there. We had perfect weather - sunny and cloudy, and no rain. It was cool as we rode from stop to stop. We went to every stop, and when it started over again, we got off at stop 10 to eat and shop. We walked to stop 11 and got on again. This time we got off at the Riverwalk. We shopped, and got back on, riding to stop 9 where our car was parked at the visitor center. There are two tours: 75 minute historical tour in an enclosed white bus and a 90 minute tour in an open air yellow bus with individual & different commentary by the driver you have. We have not tried the first one. We like being able to get on and off, and listening to different drivers' perspectives. The staff at each of the visitor centers housing the tour are friendly and knowledgeable. They gave us coupons with our map. Unfortunately we forgot to use them when we visited and shopped at five of the locations! Maybe you'll be more aware and remember to use them after your tour!

It was a good on/off trolley. We had Big E as a tour guide. He was very knowledgeable. Sometimes the wait was a little longer than twenty minutes. We still had a blast touring the city and learning of the history of savannah. God bless.

Lovely art museum! For $30 you get access to three locations, two right next to one another. They currently have a great mix of photography (contemporary and some presentations of older American works), sculpture, painting / printing, and a cool exhibit of performance costumes from famous movies. Well worth a visit.

I was passing by the area, saw that there was a Glenn Close costume exhibition on and made a detour off the highwsy especially. It was $30 to enter museum! Having only the option of a 3 museum 7 day pass is crazy when I'm sure most visitors to Savannah are not staying 7 days (most likely 2-3 nights). Guess I'll catch the exhibition in a more affordable location.

This place was so interactive and fun. The art was engaging and informative. There was so much we could touch and interact with. The immersion impressionist floral garden downstairs is so fun. They also do movies in their theatre during the days. Fern Gully was playing when we were there. If you visit be ready to play and have fun. They also have food but it's not very kid friendly unless your kids like pb&j or grilled cheese. It's also expensive but you get entry to 3 places.

Celebrating local artist who lived or visited Savannah 1700,1800,1900,2000.

The Jepson Center & Telfair Children's Art Museum was the perfect outing for my 4 year old grandson. The rooms were bright and cheerful. There were so many hands-on experiences. From the large geometric shapes and the interactive wall to the spinning tops and reading room, he was engaged for the entire visit. If you have young children this is an excellent place to take them.

We skipped the children's museum but the other galleries were awesome. I'm not sure if any are permanent, but the visiting armor exhibit was top notch and the two local sculptors that were highlighted were very good too. Tickets include the Owen's house (timed) and Telfair academy.

Jepson Center & Telfair Children's Art Museum is a beautiful modern building in the heart of the historic district of downtown Savannah. It houses a vast collection of paintings, photographs, and installations that we enjoyed exploring during our visit to the city. We highly recommend this museum to art and history enthusiasts who appreciate beautiful architecture. It's worth checking out while you are in Savannah.

Wormsloe State Historic Site is a must-see when visiting Savannah. From the moment you enter the breathtaking oak-lined drive, you know you’re in for something special. The grounds are both peaceful and full of history, with plenty of opportunities to learn and explore at your own pace. I really appreciated that visitors can choose to walk the full trail system or hop on the trolley for part of the journey—it makes the experience accessible for everyone. The weather was perfect during our visit, which made wandering through the shaded paths even more enjoyable. To top it off, there’s a charming little shop with unique gifts and keepsakes, a nice way to end a truly memorable outing.

Wormsloe Historic Site is absolutely stunning! The long oak-lined entrance is breathtaking, it feels like stepping into a movie. The place is full of history and charm, with peaceful walking trails and beautiful scenery all around. It’s a great spot to learn a bit about Savannah’s past while enjoying nature. Definitely worth visiting!

A wonderful visit. The Park Guides are very nice and informative. Taking the ride through the 1.5 miles of the Live Oak canopied drive is great. Lovely walking/hiking trails as well!

I’m so grateful that they now have a ranger hook up seating to a tractor and took us down to the museum. They stopped letting folks in the main gate because there were too many cars on the mile and a half stretch, and it was destroying the roots of the trees, not to mention aggravation for the people who live there. They have a very informative museum as well as a trail down to the tabby ruins and Jones’s Cemetery

Beautiful oak trees with spanish moss. $12 per person for entry will get you a ride to the tourist center down the famous oak tree lined gravel drive. Once dropped off there are a few miles of available hiking in that area. Some old ruins in this area including the remnants of a fort. We chose to walk the roughly 1.5 miles back to the parking lot but rides are available every 30 minutes.

Very beautiful area, tickets for adults are $12 each. Waited a little more than 10 minutes for the tour tractor to pull up. Also if you love history this place has plenty, I was just to distracted by all the gorgeous trees and the squirrels.😂

You HAVE to visit! This place is incredible. The stunning live oak avenue is just the start. At the visitor center, you get a quick history lesson, a fascinating museum, and a great gift shop. But the real magic is outside: walk to the 1737 tabby ruins (oldest in Savannah!), explore trails with gorgeous marsh views, and catch the living history demonstrations in the Colonial Life Area (afternoons, weather permitting). Plus, five more miles of nature trails if you're up for it. For only $12 an adult, this is an absolute steal for a day of history and nature!" Parking is free

There were so many informative displays and even a film being shown in a theater. We learned so much in one visit. The staff were wonderful and took time to fully answer any questions we had. I didn't know the park bench from the Forest Gump movie was here.

My husband loves history and so do I so when we visited Savannah we definitely wanted to make sure we visited this museum. There was a man dress as a soldier who was extremely informative of the war and everything that happened with the history of Savannah as well as a theater set up with a movie to watch about the history as well. The museum is handicap accessible, which is really nice.

Novel museum ! They have the actual bench from the Forest Gump movie. Also, they have a great section on Julia Gordon Lowe. You can cover the museum in about 45 minutes to an hour. Great local history information.

Museum is small and displays many historic feats by the army. If you are into history you would enjoy reading them.

Nice museum in an old transportation center. Well laid out exhibits. Like a walk through the centuries, with explanations, all self guided. Lovely extra exhibit room on Girl Scouts history. Also a Jazz exhibit. Not sure if that was permanent. All non profit, so we did not mind paying to get in.

This museum provides a good overview of the history of Savannah, from pre-Columbian times through the Jazz era. It helps you get your bearings and appreciate local attractions. Interactive exhibits for the kids. Nice gift shop as well. Parking at the visitor center. Location of the actual Forest Gump park bench.

Lots of history located inside including a jazz history section and a historical movie playing. The entrance was a bit confusing as it’s just the back of the visitors center and leads into the visitors center where there are three gift shops, one in the history museum, one in the visitors center, and one in between.

The Pirates House is definitely more of a tourist spot than a foodie destination. The restaurant itself is neat and has a cool history. The biscuits and the she crab soup were the highlights of the meal. Unfortunately, everything else fell kind of flat. I ordered the crab melt which was loaded with red peppers even though the menu didn’t mention it, and it overpowered the dish. I had house made chips as my side and they were so stale that they were inedible. My husband had the chicken salad croissant sandwich and it didn’t taste seasoned at all. If you’re looking for a unique Savannah experience, you may like this place, but don’t expect a standout meal.

The Pirates’ House is a must-visit stop in Savannah for anyone who enjoys great Southern food with a side of history! Located just a block from River Street, this restaurant dates back to 1753 and was once an inn for sailors and, according to local legend, a gathering place for pirates. You can still feel that old-world charm in every creaky floorboard and historic room. I ordered the shrimp and grits, and they were excellent — plenty of flavor, the perfect portion size, and beautifully balanced with just the right amount of spice. There was also a great looking buffet with lots of options to choose from. The staff was friendly and full of fun stories about the building’s past (ask about the tunnels!). Whether you’re a foodie, a history lover, or just in search of that classic Savannah experience, The Pirates’ House delivers on all fronts. Highly recommend!

Pirates do live here. And they will come around and try to steal your doubloons unless you order a lot of food - like th best she crab soup in town, the fried green tomatoes, the gumbo, and their award winning pecan fries chicken. All very good. It was like eat 3 meals all at once, but you need to have a proper southern meal like this if you're in Savannah.

One of the Oldest Buildings in the United States, alot of people say Haunted. We had the Honey Pecan Fried Chicken and it was absolutely delicious. 100% will get again and Highly Recommend. The Crab Dip with Pita chips was great as well. Take the pirate tour and look in every room even if you're not eating in there. We dined in the Captains room but they all are pretty interesting to say the least. We shared and they split our meal on 2 plates.

Great good at my favorite place in Savannah my dad used to go here in the 60s.. great lunch buffet for $20 with some yummy fried chicken can you get a dessert peach cobbler that my friend is smacking her lips for… Angela was our server and she was super sweet, super friendly, super great and we will come back..

We always have exceptional service in The Captain's room. The she crab soup is the best you will find anywhere from Savannah to Wilmington. They do give tours and some servers will offer up old stories of the tunnels, pirates and the oldest house in Georgia, which they say is inside/part of the restaurant.

We had a group of 14 classmates. We get together every fall. This year, Savannah was our winner. With a group of 14, it’s rare we can all sit together. The Pirate House had an 8 top and a 6 top right next to each other. Our drinks were tasty and strong. I got the grouper dinner and it was great. We were extremely fortunate to have Lindsey as our server. She was all over it. She had both of our tables and she didn’t miss a beat. She was very knowledgeable about the menu. She made the experience go from a 4 star to a 5 star. We will stop in again if we ever get back this way. Thanks a lot Lindsey. ❤️

Definitely worth visiting this old fort near the Savannah port. We most enjoyed the musket demonstration where the soldier explained how the guns, bullets, and bayonets were used in battles and skirmishes. His demonstration of how to quickly load and fire 3 rounds in about 1 minute was wonderful. We enjoyed the artifacts and displays along with walking around and exploring the fort. There’s a small fee to get in but well worth it. History buffs will love this place! Not a history buff? This fort is a great place to learn about why the US built forts in post-revolution history and the role they served through the late 1800s.

Must go and enjoy. Preferred when it's cooler months! The curator was absolutely amazing! The gift shop was overly fair priced... And if you're a history nut, it doesn't matter what the weather is.

What an amazing visit we had!! The location is beautiful, old fort Jackson sits on the Savannah river. You will meet the most friendly, informative staff. They will tell you so much information that time will pass quickly as you take it in, you may even want to go back to learn more soon! They have demonstrations of weapon firings and cannon firings. It is a real treat to witness, they provide ear and eye safety for all visitors. You may be lucky enough to see the riverboat cruising from here! If you've done that cruise it is so cool to see it from a new angle. If not, the riverboat is beautiful on its own and an added visual perk. For bird watchers we saw American Eagles and Terns during our visit. When you arrive, slow down and take in this wonderful site slowly. It is not a large fort, to me that is what made it so special. Thank you to everyone who works hard to keep these historic sites alive for generations to experience. To the 2 soldiers at the fort today you knocked it out of the park!

A fun history lesson. Plenty of demonstrations of arms to satisfy the child in all of us. A great place to bring the kids. Our guide/ reenactor was phenomenal.

Great spot. Lovely people. Was visiting from Canada and decided to stop by. Beautiful exhibits and tons of rich, real history right before your eyes. Spencer put on a wonderful firearms/ cannon demonstration and was more than happy to answer any questions I had about the place. 10/10 would recommend.

Very interesting, the interpreter was very knowledgeable and friendly.. A nice piece of history. M

So much fun! Our guide through history was amazing! She was so knowledgeable and fun! This is a great and inexpensive way to spend an afternoon. Show up around 12:45 pm and watch the muzzle loader firing, watch as they fire the cannon at the Riverboat, then fire another canon! Great afternoon all around, do it you won't regret it.

$27 Senior ticket gives access to all 4 buildings for a full week. All within walking distance of the others. Great value for your money. Educational as well as beautiful experiences.

As a first-time visitor to Savannah, discovering the Telfair Museums with their 7-day, three-museum pass was a fantastic introduction to the city's culture and history. The ability to visit the Jepson Center (modern/children's), the Telfair Academy (classic art), and the Owens-Thomas House & Slave Quarters (history/architecture) at our own pace over a week was invaluable. Each site offered a completely different but equally enriching experience, catering to varied interests from contemporary art to historical insights. It’s a brilliant way to explore Savannah’s diverse heritage.

A Bit Pricey, but Worth Supporting Local Art The museum offers a decent experience, though I found the admission fee to be on the high side. The exhibits are well-presented, but the overall collection feels somewhat limited for the cost. However, the focus on local artists and community support makes it a meaningful place to visit if you're looking to engage with Savannah’s cultural scene.

Sophisticated and enjoyable museum experience. The Newcomb College pottery exhibit and the William Golding exhibit are worthwhile to see and enjoy. Calm and peaceful experience to enjoy in Savannah, highly recommended.

A mix of old and new under one umbrella — the Jepson Center’s sleek galleries contrast with the historic Telfair Academy. I enjoyed the Owens-Thomas House tour the most; it’s layered with history and context. Some exhibits felt small, but overall it’s enriching and memorable.

Overpriced, Poor Experience, and Rude Staff My husband and I paid $30 each (a total of $60) for tickets, and it was a complete disappointment. At the entrance of the first museum (Jepson Center), we were told very clearly that the ticket was valid for all three museums — which is why we decided to buy it, planning to visit them all. Unfortunately, we did not get what we were promised. The staff at the Jepson Center were polite, but they failed to explain that the Owens-Thomas House & Slave Quarters would be closing early and remain closed for several days. That meant our $60 tickets were never truly valid, and we were charged full price without disclosure. We should have received a discount upfront. When we arrived at the Owens-Thomas House at 4 p.m., we were met at the door with rude and dismissive treatment. The staff told us the museum was already closed, that we could not enter, and that they were shutting everything down. They made it clear they were leaving, even though the posted schedule says closing is at 5 p.m. and online it states the last tour is at 4. We were on time for that last tour, but they still refused to let us in. When we asked if there was any solution or adjustment since one museum was closed for days, they told us to “go back to the first museum” for a refund. Completely unprofessional and disrespectful. On top of that, the galleries we did see (Jepson Center and Telfair Academy) were extremely poor in content and quality, with almost nothing to look at and very little meaning or inspiration in the exhibits. To put this in perspective: the Art Institute of Chicago costs only $14 and is massive, with world-class collections, and the Museum of Modern Art in New York costs $30 and is absolutely immense. Compared to those, charging $30 here is absolutely unjustified.

Great exhibits , friendly staff, tranquil surroundings.

This cathedral basilica was BEAUTIFUL. The member of the church who gave us the history on the cathedral was very knowledgeable, kind and non judging. I would LOVE to visit here again. I'm not religious however I would definitely love to attend a service here one day.

A beautiful and grand church building. The tour is self-guided and can be completed in a relatively short time. A docent was present to speak with visitors. He was friendly and knowledgeable. If you like organ music, go early. We were told that the organist often practices during the first hour of the morning tour period. The best part: there is no admission fee! A nominal freewill offering is requested.

Absolutely beautiful! I did not take an official tour. Just went in and explored. Friendly staff. The front outside was under construction, but I think it will be lovely once it is restored. This is an historical landmark, beautiful, serene and definitely worth seeing. Don't forget to leave a donation before you leave; they need this to keep the cathedral beautiful and historic.

Beautiful place! It was easy to get in, and the views inside are absolutely stunning. They even share great info about the church while you’re there. I recommend checking their website for hours before you go, but we were able to walk right in and even caught a quick performance from a band — such a nice surprise!

Highly recommend visiting! A must-see on your trip to Savannah. It is absolutely gorgeous and so peaceful. Stunning architecture inside and out. There are areas inside for prayer and candle lighting. You can come and go as you please. There are guides in there to answer questions or give more information if needed. I will be back again.

The Cathedral was beautiful. It is open to the public during certain times as listed outside the building, but does have an active congregation with masses. There is no admission charge, but donations are encouraged and appreciated. Guests are asked to be respectful and quiet so those around them can have a quiet prayer time. We are definitely glad we hopped off the tour bus to go inside and see the beauty inside.

Beautiful Church. The stainless is beautiful beautiful pipe organ located in the back on the upper level. They do offer tours. It is open to everyone. They are currently doing construction sonit looks closed but it is not. If in Savannah and you like checking out old churches I highly recommended visiting.

The premium sites were the most level. They were considered premium because they had 50 amp service and sewer hookups. Our first night we were scheduled to be in site 77 which was so unlevel we absolutely could not set up with our 30 foot travel trailer. We moved to site one and stayed five more nights. They have nice laundry rooms and showers throughout the park. The Ranger station/store/education center is very new and nice.

Lots of amenities at this state park. Very accessible. Electricity and water at every site. Beautiful, shady, spacious sites. Plenty of showers with abundant, warm water. Less than 30 minutes from Historic Savannah. Groceries and restaurants close at hand. There's even a coffee truck, Overflow Coffee, in the parking lot of the church right outside the park entrance, opening at 7 am.

The park is beautiful as in shaddy & there are deers to see every day. We have a class A 38 ft. not big rig friendly, the roads are not wide enough & they are two way roads that should be one way, the roads are erupting because of tree roots, they should have been fixed years ago. The dump station is only on one side of the road. When we were there for a week there was this loud noise like a commercial leaf blower in the morning not sure if it was in the park.

Our Scout Troop stayed in the pioneer (primitive) campsite, which was perfect for our group. The rangers and park staff were very helpful with our needs, and very happy to engage in conversation. They were all knowledgeable about the park and surrounding areas, and taught us about the natural features (and some invasive species) in the Low Country.

Quiet camp ground, easy to get to, nice sites, clean and ample facilities, hiking trails, downtown Savannah only a short drive. Only complaints would be; the loop road is in bad state due to tree roots, is quite narrow, and overhung in places by some quite sturdy trees. A tall motorhome or 5th wheel would need to be extremely careful - if you are over 12ft then be cautious.

What a beautiful, well maintained state park. The staff was friendly and helpful! The camping area and the restrooms were kept clean! Great place to stay!

Beautiful parkland and wildlife. I just visited for a short while to sightsee, so I have not had the pleasure of staying overnight. That is something I'd be interested in doing in the future.

This store was nostalgic for me. Tons of childhood candies and everything childhood related, I.e metal lunch boxes. Sweetness all around. The hubs for the Caramel Taffy Apple and Peanut Brittle. He said the Taffy Apple was good and he’s not had his brittle yet. Service was prompt. Store was busy. Staff was lovely. Family owned, which was good to know!

This store is amazing!!! We got chocolate barks (one Peppermint and dark chocolate, the other Banana Pudding) I also got a bag of the Dill Pickle popcorn and oh my lands!!!! So good!

First time here and it didnt disappoint! Caramel cake was a must, and of course the freshly popped popcorn. Kids got ice cream and I got some turtles which were great too. Great spot right on the river , a great family spot to recharge while walking the area.

OMG!!! When you walk into this store you immediately get the smell of goodness!! You don’t know where to look first. There is candy, popcorn, fudge and the list the goes on and on! It’s like you don’t want to leave. We looked at everything but we got Peanut Brittle, Cinnamon Roasted Peanut's and a soda in an old fashioned bottle! We would have gotten some chocolate to take for later, but it was super hot out so we did not want it to melt. Do not miss this store on your trip!🍭🍬

Their pralines are to die for!! I purchased a pound and a half and ate them all myself. The men handing out the praline samples were also the sweetest. They have my 9 year old multiple handfuls because they were just that good. Next time you’re in Savannah I highly recommend making a visit here!

5 stars for 5 reasons 1. Caramel popcorn was fresh Almonds were fresh and just how I like them 2. If you have sweet tooth this is the place for you. Literally, has all chocolate and candy you could possibly want. 3. Price is fairly normal for places like this and tourisy areas. 4. The store is clean and very organize. 5. Nice customer service and helpful staff.

Classy Savanah . Everything I was hoping for in a Hilton property in Savanah . Gaslight district and all. We travel as a family so knowing there is a very nice public bathroom is always a plus . The breakfast was the best we have experienced at an Embassy Suited thus far , bravo !

Overall we had a great experience! My 11 year old loved the touch tanks and the staff was incredibly helpful and provide wonderful education on the species. It was small and although they advertise the amount of tanks (I think around 16), they were smaller tanks all next to each other so it doesn’t take very long to see everything. Because of that my only gripe would be the the driving distance (we stayed in Pooler and had to drive 50 minutes). So for the distance I don’t know that I would visit again.

Great fun at a great value! I cannot recommend this place enough, especially if you have young kids! We had a blast watching our little one run around the aquarium area looking at all the fish. For the low entry fee this was a home run. The front staff were extremely friendly and very kid friendly, the walking path they have was stroller friendly as well, and seeing little crabs running across made ours and our toddlers day. Decided to give UGA a try while in town and we were not disappointed at all.

Perfect price for the perfect place. Even on a hot summer afternoon we had a great time. Great way to spend and hour/1.5 hours including the nature walk.

Wonderful learning experience for all ages. Handicap accessible and many indoor exhibits. They have touching pools for horseshoe crabs. Beautiful gardens and waterfront trails

We came 2 years ago and it was so amazing. There were so many things to do and look at for the kids. I was really disappointed this time to find out there were no rooms open for the kids to visit. It's VERY small and VERY limited. They used to have microscopes and turtles and all kinds of things to look at and interact with, but not anymore.

A really neat experience! Small but nice aquarium with a great walking trail.

This is a fantastic aquarium and nature walk. We enjoy walking the trail, going out on the dock, and sitting by the water. We most recently went for their Marine Science Day and had a blast! It was completely free (minus food, if you wanted to buy it). They had so many great organizations taking part and we learned about programs we didn't even know were here! They also had the research labs open. It was interesting to view different marine life under microscopes, learn about the ocean water, and of course the marine animals. You definitely don't have to have young children to go here for a visit. My husband and I have gone alone, and when our daughter was younger, and this most recent time, she was almost 12. Check it out!

Great experience on Halloween night. Paranormal experience. My son and I had many personal experiences. Got to interact with the umm residents through spirit box emf detectors and so much more. Micha and Courtney are obviously very passionate about what they do. Always very engaging. They give you the freedom to do your own investigation and yet are always checking in to assist you, give suggestions, or talk to the residents themselves. It was really nice to see how much they had respect for the spirits that still reside there and the history of the building. They are very open to expanding their understanding as well. My son and I can't wait to go back. IMO the theater was a five star. And Micha and Courtney were 5 star. They really bring the place to life with their passion for the theater and what they do. Thank you Micha and Courtney! With much gratitude from Beaufort!

A Must-Visit in Savannah! The Savannah Theatre is an amazing blend of history and local charm, while still delivering a true Broadway feel. Every performer on stage brings the show to life with energy and talent. The sound quality is excellent, and the seating is as comfortable as a movie theater. The lobby offers light refreshments for purchase during intermission, and balcony seating is also available. We absolutely love coming here — in fact, we make trips to Savannah just to see the shows. It’s always a highlight of our visit!

Bright my granddaughter to see Hairspray. The cast presentation was excellent. My only complaint was the lack of restrooms space during the intermission. Other than that perfect place to see a production

Little Shop of Hoorors was just the latest fun production we attended. It was very professionally done with top notch casting and transformative set design. The leads playing Audrey and Seymour have incredible voices and stage presence. Audrey 2 was monstrously good and, at the end, my question of whether it was automated or performed by a puppeteer was answered when their star puppeteer popped out of the plant! The whole cast shone bright! A++ Every show we've seen here has been a delight. But my favorite is the Christmas variety show they put on every year. We never miss it! The performance has something for everyone and never fails to get my whole family in the holiday spirit. If you're a fan of musical theatre get your tickets to any performance. You won't be disappointed!

Saw production of Legally Blonde the Musical. Good show started late due to AC issues. The production was decent and entertaining. The accuustics of the theater was a bit challenging sometimes it difficult to understand as sound wasn't clear. But overall a good experience.

The Paranormal Investigation was definitely worth the money! Their equipment was up-to-date, clean, and exciting to use. Micah and Courtney were awesome with giving us the history, stories, and debunking things. It was truly a great experience. I definitely recommend it!

We did the after hours investigation at the theater with Micah and Courtney. It was awesome! They have a ton of equipment for you to use and they go over how to use everything. Right before we started the investigation one of the guests had a medical emergency and Micah was on top of it. The investigation went well and at the end of the night they gave us extra time to make up for the emergency to that happened earlier. We will definitely be going back next time we are in Savannah.

No trip to Savannah would be complete without a guided tour of this truly incredible and historically significant home. Our tour guides' passsion and deep knowledge of the location and it's many layers of history made for a meaningful, moving, at times surprising and deeply instructive experience.

We didn’t book in advance but were able to join a group beginning a guided tour almost immaculate. The guide was outstanding. It’s an interesting visit in terms of the unique architecture, the view of life at that time in such a home with enslaved people an integral part of the system, and the unique historical roles played by some of the inhabitants. So, a small place, a home, but an experience that’s interesting and revealing on several levels. We’re glad we stumbled onto this place.

A powerful and beautifully preserved piece of Savannah’s history. The Owens-Thomas House offers a rare blend of stunning Regency architecture and honest storytelling about both the wealthy family and the enslaved people who lived there. The restored slave quarters are especially moving. Guided tours are informative and well-paced. Highly recommend for a meaningful and educational experience.

Excellent opportunity to learn the true history of Savannah including the treatment of enslaved people. The tour was very accurate full of details of the period. The home itself is amazing and well-kept.

The best thing about this tour was our guide. He artfully contrasted the life of the mansion's owners with those of the enslaved people who served there. This is why I think it's an important tour for anyone interested in Savannah, and American, history. Plus, your ticket gives you access to the other two Telfair Museums which are both worth visiting.

Very interesting testimony of the time of slavery. Help to understand the dire contrast between the life of enslaved people and enslavers. The guide was very knowledgeable. Notably, the Marquis de La Fayette staid in this place during his last trip to America.

Must, must, must. Most significant tour in Savannah. Tickets are $30, but include two other places, not quite as spectacular. Deep look into the history of one of Savannah's most important houses. Great guides!

Amazing museum. Our tour guide (pictured) was very polite and knew his facts! I definitely recommend this if you're in the area

So happy with the visit! Lots of rich history, great restoration! Can't believe we spent 3 hours in there, wow. Many aspects were explained that i never learned about in school. I would definitely go again, they're adding more displays and aircraft, can't wait to see it finished! Plenty of choices in the gift shop, wasn't expecting to get anything in there but wow.

This museum is awesome. Been wanting to stop after passing it multiple times off of 95. Glad I did, and wish I did sooner. Artifacts and exhibits are really cool. They have some great stuff on display and staff is passionate and knowledgeable on the 8th Air Force. Admission was cheap compared to other museums, definitely a good place to check out on your travels.

Great museum dedicated to the mighty 8th. You can easily spend a few hours here. (Put a few bucks in the donation box by the B17) under the P51. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Be sure to check out the outdoor area also. There you will find a chapel with amazing stained glass and a B47 stratojet.

Opened in 1996, this beautiful museum gives tribute to the historic Eighth Air Force, known as the Mighty Eighth. The story began in January 1942 in Savannah Georgia, when the United States Army Corps assigned seven men without a single aircraft to a newly formed 8th Air Force. In time, the Mighty 8th became the largest air armada in the world. Their strength and actions paved the way for the D-Day invasion, and contributed significantly to the liberation of occupied Europe. The cost of ridding the Nazi scourge was 26,000 Eighth airmen killed, and another 28,000 became Prisoners of War. Their combined valor earned them 17 Medals of Honor, 220 Distinguished Service Crosses, and more than 420,000 Air Medals. This museum does a a fantastic job of Honoring all the men and women who served in the Mighty 8th, and I believe that everyone is remembered. The Chapel of the Fallen Eagles was built in 2002 as a non-denominational place of worship dedicated to the members of the 8th Air Force who perished during World War II and later conflicts. It is designed to resemble a 16th century English Chapel, reflecting the historical ties to the Eighth Air Force's bases in England. Click on the photographs to enlarge for reading and detail.

Museum was very informative about the American involvement in WW11 and the location of all the bases in the UK that were created in order to help in ending WW11

The tour was amazing! Check out the Mona Lisa Effect ... but mural sized!!!! Very cool if you are into history and art and such things

My husband and I spent about 3 hours here both at the center and the drive through. It was so nice to be able to drive through, get out and walk around, take pictures and really take in and enjoy the nature. Beautiful landscapes and birds to see. Spotted a few alligators as well! Highly recommended for nature enthusiasts and people looking for budget friendly activities while also getting to learn about nature preservation efforts in the area.

Amazing. Even first week of November we saw five crocodiles… you have to walk or drive at three KM per hour and look out for them on the banks or swimming. We went between 10 and 11 o’clock when it was hot enough for them to sunbathe… also amazing for birds!

First time visit and truly is a beautiful scenic drive. You are met at the entrance by a larger than life oak tree covered in Spanish Moss - they say if you listen close enough you can hear a radio playing an Elvis song. Something magical about this place. Highly recommend visiting!

Just a beautiful drive on a 65-degree day in October 2025. Nature trails, beautiful scenery, alligators, plenty of birds. I spent about 2 hours 45 minutes driving through, with plenty of places to pull over and a couple of small walks.

We saw so many alligators on the public wildlife drive that's down the road from the visitor center. The children and I had so much fun. There is one outdoor restroom on the wildlife drive. Saved me when my little ones needed to potty after too much liquid on our drive. There were and are bugs, of course, so be prepared for that. As well as stay alert for other wildlife but overall it was a great day trip.

We live visiting! So many birds and gators!! Being your binoculars. There's plenty of room for you to go slow and observe (you can pull to the side to let others pass you if needed). Some people rush through, but you see so much more if you take your time and really look!

This is one of my favorite places to go birding. There’s a large number of wild animals, and you can see many of them from your car. There’s also trails where you can walk through some areas of the refuge. This place is known for the large number of alligators, and I have seen many of them every time I have visited.

Aside from being one of the ugliest parks in the city, this square feels dangerous with beggars and addicts all day and drunks all night. Savannah might look nice but places like this remind you that the city is in a sorry state.

What to say about Wllis Square? Great square with visitor center, benches and in front of many restaurants and bars and shops. Good for great pictures and sitting around. City government isn't playing around, and they require masks! It's great!

We had a blast people-watching while the kids ran through the fountains! Bustling little area of the city...very different vibe than some of the older, gardened squares.

Grab a drink, some candy, or ice cream and find a chair. Excellent people watching. Don't forget to visit Johnny Mercer.

Great hangout spot... great house music... everyone was having fun! Follow MixMasterHak on Twitch and all social media 🎛️🎧🎵🎶

Full of life! Green grass, beautiful blue skies. Hreatbplace to bring your families and dogs.

I call it the “clean New Orleans” because you can bar hop with your drinks in hand! Savannah is absolutely beautiful as well, just an added benefit!

Most entertaining b-ball game! This was our first time and we watched it in Atlanta! We had the delta seats so the service was great! We loved everything about this the dance the activities and the jokes around the game Something to put on your list if you have not done this

They came to Fenway and we had a BLAST!!! It’s a great show, lots of fun, 37k people all laughing and singing and oohing and ahhing at the antics. 100% recommend to anyone especially families.

BANANA BALL!!! Savanna Bananas comes to Anaheim, California (LA Angel’s Stadium). One of the most fun baseball games I’ve ever been to. I believe it was the Bananas first time in a MLB park??? 45,000 attendance, sell out. Be sure to look up the league’s schedule and get out to the ballpark; very kid friendly. Photos shot with iPhone 13.

I recently visited the Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee (5/10) where the Savannah Bananas were playing that night. Wow, what a show they put on. It was al.lsy non-stop from before the game to after the game as well. If you haven't seen them play or seen them on TV, go out with the family and enjoy a couple hours of fun!

Wow, Super Super Super entertaining for the whole family. Enjoyed the game with family and friends Friendly environment. Food is good, Highly recommend!

I had the remarkable opportunity to attend the opening game at George Steinbrenner Stadium in Tampa Bay, Florida, right after landing from Australia. As a long-time follower of the team through social media, my expectations were sky-high, and I was not disappointed. This event was not just a game, but a full-on entertainment experience that surpassed any sporting event I’ve witnessed either in Australia or the US. The atmosphere was electric with non-stop music and exceptional performances that perfectly complemented the game. The Bananas have truly mastered the art of blending the beloved game of baseball with a spectacularly fun and family-friendly environment. It was an unforgettable experience and hands down the best family sporting event I've ever attended. I only wish my family could have been there to enjoy it with me. Congratulations to the Bananas for creating a perfect formula that turns a baseball game into the most fun and memorable family event! If you're looking for an unmatched sporting experience, this is the place to be.

We had tickets to opening night in Des Moines and it was amazing. The show was amazing and we loved every minute of it. The game went into a showdown and for the first time ever it was finally decided in the fourth showdown. History was made and we loved it!!! If you get a chance see this show. Now we need to get them to Omaha!!!

Waited for about 30 min in a line outside to enter. There are only about 5-6 large tables inside and you are seated with people you don’t know but you quickly get to know everyone. Food is served family-style in bowls which are then passed around the table (like an old fashioned sit-down family meal). Ambiance is great. Food is tasty and plentiful, and service is friendly and top notch. Restaurant is located on a beautiful street - definitely recommend for a one-of-a-kind experience! If looking for fancy, fine dining this isn’t it. You’ll get nothing but down home southern comfort food and hospitality here. No menu to order from - family-sized portions are already on the table when you enter (all you can eat). It’s more like visiting someone’s home for a meal rather than being served.

Yes the is a usually a wait to get in, but grab a beverage and line up - you will not be disappointed. This is family style dining NOT to be missed if you’re visiting Savannah. It’s a set menu, the food is soul food - collards, fried chicken etc. it’s like having lunch with your new friends and family. A great experience and only $40 - a bargain.

If you’re anywhere near Savannah, you must go to Mrs. Wilkes for a meal. From the moment we walked through the door, we were greeted with warm smiles and genuine Southern hospitality that set the tone for an unforgettable dining experience. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, the kind of place where it feels like Sunday dinner at Grandma’s — if Grandma happened to be a five-star cook. The meal was served family-style, and it was a true Southern spread — generous, hearty, and absolutely delicious. The meats were the undeniable stars of the table: tender fried chicken with perfectly crispy skin, smoky pulled pork that melted in your mouth, and slow-cooked beef stew. Each meat was cooked to perfection, seasoned just right, and clearly made with love. The sides were no afterthought either. We were treated to creamy mac and cheese, tangy collard greens, buttery cornbread, fluffy mashed potatoes with rich gravy, fried okra, and so many more. Every dish had its own distinct flavor and homemade charm — nothing tasted store-bought or rushed. The balance of savory, sweet, and spicy flavors was spot on, and everything was served piping hot and replenished with a smile. What really elevated the whole experience was the service. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, always ready with a fresh pitcher of sweet tea or a recommendation for what to try next. They made us feel like we were part of the family — something you just can’t fake. If you’re craving a meal that’s both comforting and deeply satisfying, this Southern family-style spot delivers in every way. Come hungry, leave happy, and don’t forget to save room for the peach cobbler and banana pudding, they are sweet ending to a truly spectacular meal.

We went to Savanna Georgia on a day trip. We heard the place to eat was Mrs. Wilkes. We stood in line for 2 hours. We made friends while waiting to get in line. It’s a family style all you can eat restaurant. you sit next to people you don’t know and talk about everything and you get to know them and become friends. The food service was great. If you are in Savanna We recommend you visit Mrs Wilkes you won’t be disappointed.

This was a super fun and delicious dining experience that you must try at least once when coming to Savanna, Georgia! Our family gathered here for a meal none of us will soon forget! when the mash potatoes hit my mouth, followed by fried chicken and okra, sweet potato soufflé and creamed corn I was transported to my own mother’s kitchen and all the flavors that reminded me of home! What a treat to share with family! Plan on waiting in line and bring your best attitude and biggest appetite for a memorable time!

Delicious classic southern cooking served family style. Every dish was amazing, so come hungry! The fried chicken and greens were some of the best I've ever had. Fair warning, it's first come first serve and they're open until they run out of food. You will wait in line outside, but once you're seated you eat immediately. Cash Only!

Have to go at least once. A Savanah institution. Went on a Monday. Line already formed at 11:15. One group was inside for first seating. Waited an hour. Tables of ten... you and whoever. Dishes passed family-style. Most everything you'd want cooked southern style. Collard greens, creamed corn, black eye peas, red rice, mashed potatoes, biscuits, cornbread, chicken, pulled pork bbq. Dishes are refilled. Only option is sweet iced tea (but you can request unsweetened). Dessert was banana pudding or peach conner cobbler. All very good. Not especially exceptional, but the food is definitely good. This is the south. Don't expect anything al dente. We COOK food. When you are finished, leave when you want (not dismissed as a table), take your plates, utensils and glass to the kitchen door. Someone in the family tells the story of the restaurant while you wait in line outside. Mrs. Wilkes is no longer living (1906-2001). Her family is carrying on the tradition. Small gift shop inside. Tees, aprons, cook books (signed by family member, stamped with Mrs. Wilkes' signature $20.) All-in-all a fun experience. You certainly don't leave hungry.

Loved our tour guide! He was so fun and energetic while also being very knowledgeable. The house is beautiful! I was so sad to learn you can’t take pictures inside but I respect the rules either way. It was such a good experience and I would do it again! I bought the book at the gift shop just because it felt very iconic to do so! ❤️

No pictures allowed on the tour but the memories are fantastic! It you’ve read or know the story of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil then this is a must stop! The home and garden are rich with history and our guide was a true story teller.

Our guide was just great All original furniture and artifacts. Its at least 3 stories but since family still lives at the house you only get to enjoy a portion of the 1st floor. Its still well worth the time (30 to 45 mins) and price. The ladies seemed to enjoy the large gift shop

Very nice and informative staff. Cannot take pictures within the home. I was a bit disappointed to hear that but the tour was very nice. This is a provate residence still in use by one of Jim's nieces so I can understand the privacy concerns. Overall great home to visit in Savannah.

Beautiful house full of history the 30 minute tour only takes you through the 1st floor because the family still lives on the upper floor of the home. This house is bursting with 17th and 18th century items that the tour guide will give you the history of. The tour costs $13.50 per person and honestly is completely worth it if you’re a history buff or if you’ve seen the movie or read the book ( Midnight in the garden of good and evil) this house is a real must see!!

Super interesting combined with reading “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil “ but read the book first too many spoilers. I don’t understand why people are not allowed to take pictures inside, oh well.

The Home, the gardens and the tour were all beautiful. The history of this house and the furnishings inside are not to be missed. Our guide Zach was tremendous .... clearly knew his stuff on the house and the collections. It is not necessarily ADA accessible but the staff work hard to allow all to access the house and property to their fullest extent. Dont miss this tour.

A fascinating museum with many models telling the history of a wide number of ships. In addition, the staff here were very polite.

What a stunning building and gardens! I can’t believe I’ve lived here for 15 years and this is my first time visiting. The exhibits were really cool, and the staff was friendly. A must go if you enjoy some cool models.

Such a beautiful space. Great little museum with a self guided tour. Also fantastic grounds great for a wedding or event.

I recommend this museum for two reasons. First, for its displays of ship models by genius craftsmen like Joseph Gallettini. Second, for the chance to view the architectural details of the William Scarbrough House, which has been repurposed many times over the years.

Local, independently supported museum with a lot of model ships and plenty of artifacts of maritime history from the area. Also doubles as a beautiful wedding venue in the gardens.

Three floors of history. The tour includes history of the building as it switched hands from the original owner, to a school for black students, to a maritime museum. There are plenty of pictures and boat models and all kinds of artifacts. I think it took me maybe an hour for the self-guided tour. Very insightful and inspiring! The staff was very helpful to answer any questions and were very friendly!

Very interesting! Quite cool it's wild when you realize all of the ships were to the same scale you can really get a feel how massive some of the ships were. The history of the house and Savannah was also fascinating to learn about

We love coming by to check out the latest offerings from River Street Sweets and of course getting some pralines! Brenna helped us out today and was sure to not only fill us in on what was available but also let us know about the specials going on. She took care in wrapping up our purchases and thanked us for coming in. She is a gem and will definitely be back on our next trip to Savannah!

Great treats and amazing selection Such a fun store to buy things in and get some snacks Must stop in Savannah

They have something for everyone's sweet tooth! Friendly service and amazing sweets. Will return for more.

This place is a treat (pun intended)! Anytime I’ve had the pleasure of spending time in Savannah, I make a point to go here. The fudge is delicious, glazed pecans are amazing and the pralines are a must have!

The experience was one in a lifetime I felt like a fat kid literally in a candy store lol. I loved that they had some items from tik tok available. The chocolate itself is so rich I couldn’t even finish my snack. My only discrepancy is that the cashier was not friendly and came off as very rude. It was almost as if she hated her job or maybe she just had a rough day. I will bring my children when I return again.

Fun store right on the waterfront. Delicious chocolate covered strawberries! We went as they were closing to buy a few and they gave us extra since it was closing time. Such nice staff and so much candy and sweets!

Sweets/Candies are so delicious, we bought few of them as we want to try some local food and we really loved them. We gave some to our friends as well and they liked it as well. I recommend this dessert place to all my friends and family if anyone visiting Savannah. We also had a chance to see how they make some chocolates thats really a good experience.

It's always a treat to visit the Pin Point Heritage Museum in historical Pin Point, Savannah. My father's people are from the Gullah Geechee culture. They were enslaved from West Africa (Sierra Leone, Angola and other West African countries) forced to live/work in America. Their religion/spiritual practice is Seeking. This museum is a treasure and worth a visit. There is also a documentary entitled, Take Me To The Water and many books written about the Gullah Geechee culture. You should check them out! You will likely see a resident crawling around the museum, the Fiddler crab. The other natural beauty that is throughout Savannah are the mighty water oak trees draped with Spanish moss. They add to the charm of the city. 🫶🏽🙏🏽😊

I found this museum using ChatGPT looking for African American tours for my Ashanti Too Book Club from Memphis TN celebrating our 20 year anniversary. The club had 13 members to attending the tour. The tour was outstanding I strongly recommend this tour to everyone. The video, the tour guide and the exhibits were so enthralling that we didn’t want it to end. The tour was too short we could have listened for another hour. The cost of $15 was so inexpensive for the quality of the tour. A must see and visit when you come to Savannah.

I highly recommend visiting this museum, located in the former A.S. Varn & Son Oyster and Crab Factory (on the banks of the famous Moon River!), which was vital to the local economy until 1985. The exhibits vividly illustrate how Gullah Geechee families lived, showcasing tools for seafood harvesting, handmade toys, and everyday objects that highlight the community’s creativity and resourcefulness. Our guide was excellent. She shared real insights and personal stories, providing a deeper understanding of the culture, traditions, and language of the Gullah Geechee people. The staff is extremely nice and helpful. This museum offers a link to the past and ensures that the legacy of Pin Point continues to be studied and appreciated for generations to come.

Very interesting. Experience the history of the Gulla Geechees, originally from West Africa who created a shrimp and oyster industry in Pin Point. About 100 Gulla Geechees still live in the area. The Moon River, from the song, is located there. Everyone should visit.

We had a history-filled tour with Gail, who has lived in Pin Point her whole life. It included a half-hour documentary detailing the history of the community and the crab and oyster business which sustained them for more than a century. The buildings included photos of the people who had worked there and recordings of their voices talking about the work. There's a gift shop where mementos, tees, books and other memorabilia can be purchased. A unique experience. Note: Parking cannot accommodate RVs over 20 feet.

This spot was the 2nd "Must See" place on my list. It was amazing and David was an exceptional host. This guy was full of knowledge and jokes. He even gave us a pop-quiz at the end. LOL After this visit, we went on to the Ralph Mark Gilbert Civil Rights Museum and I recommended the Pin Point Heritage to EVERYONE. Hopefully, the went over there. I want to go back again because it was peaceful sitting on the dock and looking at the marsh area. Thanks David

Cool experience! Thought it was worth the $10/person entry fee. Make sure to check hours as when we went it was just open Thursday through Saturday; also sounds like the last guided tour may end at two so go earlier as the guided tour portion was worth it. There was an interesting video that we enjoyed watching. Then a passionate tour guide took us around the property explaining things along the way; he was patient with our many questions. Then afterwards we took some time to explore on our own. Overall we were there for about an hour and a half perhaps, though you could spend more or less as desired.

This is a great market on river street. Has something for everyone at great prices. I love the wind spinners.

An amazing place to explore for shopping and dining. When the weather’s good, you can sit all day and just watch the ships go by.

Fun, tourist spot. Anything you hear about that you could buy, you will find it here. Walk the whole strip, not just some of it. You'll enjoy!

I love this Market! So much cool stuff. Loads of different kinds of art. Oddities, gods figurines, hot sauces, flavored honey. The Metal art is so amazing! The artist is extremely talented. Jewelry, bags, decor, henna. There was a food cart catering to dogs 🐕😍 It was so cool to see all the cool things that are here. I got to get a selfie with a shrunken head pure awesomeness! You need to check it out.

Great place to shop and dine, or get some sweets or a beer. Lots to see and do here.

River Street in Savannah, GA, is a delightful destination that beautifully blends history, charm, and scenic views along the Savannah River. I took my wife there for her birthday, and it was her first time experiencing this lovely city. We began our day at the River House Seafood restaurant, which offered a fantastic dining experience. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with views of the river enhancing our meal. The seafood was fresh and flavorful; we particularly enjoyed the Lobster & Shrimp Roll which was a perfect Southern touch. The staff was attentive and friendly, making us feel special on this celebratory occasion. After lunch, we strolled along the cobblestone streets, which added to the historical charm of the area. The local shops were a treasure trove of unique finds, from artisan crafts to specialty foods. Each store had its own character, and we enjoyed chatting with the shopkeepers who were eager to share the stories behind their goods. We also visited the outdoor marketplace, where we found local produce, handmade goods, and delicious treats. The vibrant atmosphere, filled with the sounds of street performers and the scent of fresh food, made for a perfect afternoon. Overall, River Street is a wonderful spot for anyone looking to soak in the charm of Savannah. It’s a mix of great food, shopping, and picturesque views, making it an ideal place for special occasions or just a relaxing getaway. My wife loved her first experience in Savannah, and River Street played a significant role in making it memorable. We can’t wait to return!

they're two little pavilions that have these artisan markets items that you can purchase and most of them are genuine local artist. you can even get a henna tattoo, it's a temporary tattoo it lasts maybe 10 days anywho I walked up to this ladies area where she was selling these interesting looking necklaces that all had different symbols or different items generally of nature and they had words of meaning that went with them this one picked me out and I bought it I like what it says it's where I'm at in life right now

Cool Revolutionary War sight where a very bloody battle took place

Not a lot here, but we did find some free parking. The children's museum and railroad museum next door should stay open a bit longer, closing at 3 is a bit ridiculous.

Puts into perspective the lives lost for our independence. 800 stones for each life. Humbling to see and more appreciation than ever that these young men died for our freedom from Britain

A connection area between the History Museum and the Railroad Museum & Children Museum.

Beautiful historic place. Nice walk around the place.

City run pay to park. Pay for permit for you tour bus to drive in Savannah. But your bus can't park or you pay a fine. You should ride a City sight seeing tour bus but you have to pay. And the city is under construction and dirty. Go somewhere else.

This park is worth a visit. Fun things to do for the entire family and great things to see. The gardens, fountains and statues are amazing. Visit and give yourself plenty of time to look around. It is worth the stop.

My husband and I did an afternoon riverboat cruise with our 9 month old. It was a lot of fun, very relaxing way to just take a break from exploring on foot and spend 90 minutes learning more about the area and the river. The boat is really cool and feels like a novelty to be on. We got a couple of drinks that weren't anything special but they were strong, so can’t complain. The guide over the speaker was nice and informative, definitely entertaining. The rest of the staff were also very friendly and helpful, everyone was in a good mood. We did have a stroller with us so we were able to make it to the 3rd floor only by elevator, the top deck was pretty inaccessible unless we took everything out and folded it up to carry it. So I’d say the top deck isn’t very accessible for wheelchairs or families with strollers, just something to think about. The photos taken were a sweet and easy souvenir! I’d say you have to do this at least once!

Went on the dinner cruise, 2 hours 7pm to 9pm. Got seated had buffet chicken, prime rib & fish, veggies, potatoes, salad, rolls & desert. Drinks were good, waitress got everything we needed. Music on deck 2 was great, all that & the price was right. would recommend 100%.

Took the lunch included riverboat cruise, food was good, service was excellent, the boat is huge and fun to walk around. Narration was informative, just wished they could make the giant paddle wheel in the back turn, like the Natchez in New Orleans, just for show anyway. Recommended.

Really fun cruise. Lunch was good, lots of southern staples. Staff were all terrific. Huge ship to explore, lots of great views and very informative facts while sailing. Full bar if you wanna by drinks. Definitely worth it.

We had such an awesome experience on the Riverboat Cruize. Such a fun way to relax and learn about the area and even some fun facts about the boat itself. We went on the scenic cruise so I can't speak for the food other than their drinks and ice cream, both of which we really enjoyed. If you are visiting Savannah I highly recommend doing this. We also coupled this with the Trolley tour and learned so much about the area between the 2 different experiences.

Ah such a fun spot to play tourist! We did the dinner cruise and it was an experience! Fun band, decent food and the drink menu was pretty basic. Our Server, Radika, was such a sweetheart! We didn't know that they have different live music styles, so that would have maybe changed the night we went, but overall a must-do for a tourist! We do wish the website or table tent relayed information about the fact that gratuities were not included! We found that out after we ate so as industry people we were a little bummed! Got to take care of your people!

I went in the sunset cruise with a large group. This was my first experience on a cruise because I get extremely motion sick in cars and on planes. Once I moved from inside of the third floor up to the open fourth floor my body regulated from seeing the open water and feeling the strong breeze blowing through my curls. I wasn’t motion sick any of the two hours and had an absolute blast. Between our large group and the other passengers being totally fun we all enjoyed dancing hard, laughing hard, chatting, and completely enjoying ourselves while making unforgettable memories. The views of Savannah at night from the river were beautiful. The sunset was absolutely perfect… The only negative was the food. It was overly seasoned and not the best. There looked to only be one cook for the entire boat. The food is a pass. Have dinner on the shore.

Best city tour we ever went on. We travel all over the country and do tours to learn more before we explore. While we have been in Savannah several times, first time taking a tour. Big E was by far the best tour guide we have experienced in any city. Funny, knowledgable, and made the time go so quickly. Have recommended to all friends going to ask to have him as their driver.

Best city tour I’ve ever been on! We traveled with Hampton Malone (tour guide) and he was incredible! He had us laughing several times and was very knowledgeable about the history of Savannah as well as current happenings in the city. An incredible welcome to Savannah! Highly recommend this tour over all others. Additional notes — the trolly itself was beautiful, they offered hand held fans to keep us cool, and provided parking free of charge. Thank you Hampton!

Absolutely loved this tour! Ms. Pearl was incredible in every way! Definitely recommend for anyone visiting Savannah! Wish we could’ve just stayed on all day.

Recommend doing a tour as one of your first activities in Savannah. Many to choose from, we chose Old Savannah. They are family owned and local. We did the on-off option for one day. Worth the extra few dollars. We used four different busses. Took our first tour through all stops, then went on others to see different sites we wanted to revisit. Each buss we used had a different driver and each was informative and had some different topics or historical facts they shared. Worth the time.

We were on our way to Sugar Mountain and decided to stop in Savannah for a few days to break up the drive. We’re so glad we did, because one of the highlights of our visit was taking the Old Savannah Tours trolley. The tour was excellent from start to finish—relaxing, informative, and full of charm. It gave us a great overview of the city’s rich history while allowing us to sit back and enjoy the sights. What made it truly memorable were the live character appearances throughout the ride. Actors dressed as figures from different eras in Savannah’s past hopped on and off the trolley, sharing short stories and interacting with passengers in a way that brought history to life. It added such a unique and entertaining touch to the experience. My daughters especially loved when Forrest Gump made a surprise appearance—they were thrilled and talked about it for the rest of the day. The tour was not only educational but also genuinely fun for both kids and adults. It was a wonderful introduction to Savannah and helped us appreciate the city on a deeper level. We’re so happy we chose to do this tour and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Savannah, especially families looking for something engaging and memorable.

My friend from Texas came to visit and I always take people to Savannah but I have never done the tours. Well today we did the Old Savannah Tours. It started with a wonderful many named Mr Leroy he was an amazing spirit. Then Mr John gave us a wonder narrative tour of Savannah. He was just a dream. He answered all questions with honesty and accuracy. I even asked some questions about restaurants and just living in Savannah. I plan on coming back with my friend who said he didn’t like Savannah but he didn’t take this tour. I know he will fall in love with the knowledge of Mr John and Savannah will be his new favorite destination.

We did a little research to find a great city tour and Old Savanna Tours was our choice. We liked how they were locally owned and have been in the tour business in Savannah for a very long time. They show all the great sites and even have costumed people hop on and explain their local significance. The driver was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. A really great tour.

We made reservations for five at the Pink House months earlier and it was wonderful. The property is beautiful and is in a great location easy to walk to. The service was five star, they were attentive and answered all our questions. We ordered chicken pot pie, the bourbon glazed pork loin was medium rare and it paired well with the pecan glazed sweet potato and collared greens which were the best I ever had. The fried chicken looked great and the portion was generous. The interior was beautifully decorated. We sat in the green room which had a cozy fireplace and a magnificent chandelier. This was definitely a must see.

This was a fantastic dining experience from beginning to end. Our server Shaina was an absolute super star! She was tremendously welcoming and gracious and very helpful. It was obvious that she enjoys what she does and loves all the great things that The Olde Pink House brings to the table. She was extremely knowledgeable on the entire menu as well as the history of this special establishment. The food was absolutely delicious and full of great flavors that were fresh and cooked perfectly. The cocktails were excellent as well. Another nice touch was a very special woman that came around to sing a requested song or sing happy birthday. I was fortunate enough to request a tune and also sing a duet with her on Amazing Grace! Overall. It was a fantastic evening and one that will remain in my heart for a long time. Definitely worth checking out if you are in town!

Not to be missed, make a reservation. A lovely historic house with well trained staff. Food was creative and presented well. A little warm inside (they had the fires on low for some reason), - I felt it could have used a couple of fans to move the air. However a great restaurant and very popular for a reason.

Having dinner at the Olde Pink House was such a treat! Our server Issac was so sweet and knowledgeable, the food was perfect, and the atmosphere was a cozy and welcoming 10/10. We had the stuffed flounder, the fried chicken and macaroni and cheese, the southern sushi, the fried green tomatoes, and the chocolate tarte for dessert. Every item was equally delicious in its own right. We also popped downstairs to the tavern and would absolutely go back and have drinks and food there again! So cozy and historic and the live music was such a great touch.

We went for dinner for my birthday and thought the food was good but not excellent. It’s also a bit of a production as they come and get you when your table is ready from the bar downstairs but can’t transfer your bill to your table. The she crab soup and spring roll as appetizers were okay — would actually skip appetizers if I came back. Loved my grilled pork for the main though and the sweet potato was also delicious. The Mac and cheese and fried green tomato was just okay. The biscuit is the true shining star at this restaurant, so don’t skip out on that.

Do yourself a favor: go to The Olde Pink House while in Savannah. From the moment we walked in the door, we felt welcomed with big smiles and friendly Staff. We were seated by a charismatic Host in a great location upstairs. Our Server, Dennis, showed up immediately with a welcoming smile and caring, genuine attitude. He brought us some tasty homemade cheese straws, while we chose our entrees. We had great conversation with Dennis as he educated us on the history of the house and the city. We decided to get the fried chicken and the special, which was fried flounder in a tarragon spice on a bed of seafood risotto. I will tell you with all honesty that the fried chicken is the best we have ever had, and we are from the South. With every bite, you can taste the history of the house and the city. The chicken was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, perfectly cooked. The chicken stayed hot from the time it arrived at the table to the last bite. It was truly magical. The special was also well cooked and full of flavor. Our experience was perfect and would absolutely go back. We've told everyone about the fried chicken and I could not wait to write a review so more people will know just how delicious it is. The Olde Pink House is full of character, personality, great Staff and wonderful food. Go to the Olde Pink House: you will be so glad you did.

We booked a table for lunch a month in advance. Dinner is more difficult to book. The setting is beautiful, in the historic district opposite savanna's Reynolds Square. The house dates from 1771 and it's classically appointed . The food and drinks were all tasty - classic Southern fare with creative twists. Service was attentive but a bit rushed. Worth a visit! [See also my review of Planter's Tavern in the basement.]

Love Savannah, 3 day visit. Sunday- Wednesday. Perfect time. No crowds, took the land and sea tour. Very informative and fun. Downtown Historic area is very easy to walk. Lots of beautiful sites and plenty of places to get a bit or get a cocktail.

Simply stated, it’s one of the most beautiful cities you can visit. This time of year the weather is perfect for touring the town. Take the Trolley tour. There are 16 stops and the drivers are very knowledgeable about all the history and the buildings/homes. The selection of restaurants is incredible, ranging from burgers to fresh seafood. It’s also very walkable, within reason. Parking can be very difficult to find in the Garden District. Take the trolley, it’s goes to many places around the city.

Savannah is a beautiful city to explore!! Lots of history. We unfortunately only had a day, and it definitely wasn't enough time. We did the hop on hop off trolley tours. It was nice to have transportation around the area for the day while also having the freedom to just get off and explore. Which I highly recommend you do! The cemetery was very neat to see. I hope on our next trip to see more of what Savannah has to offer. These photos are just a glimpse into what we saw and what you can look forward to seeing yourself.

Savannah’s Historic District is full of charm and history, and it’s easy to explore entirely on foot. The Riverwalk is a highlight, with plenty of shops, restaurants, and a great honey store worth stopping by. There are hop on hop off and trolley available. Beautiful green medians lined with weeping willow and oak trees give the area a peaceful feel. Don’t miss the old cemetery and historic buildings throughout – it’s a truly memorable place to visit.

Absolutely loved exploring the Savannah Historic District! 🌿✨ Such a beautiful and charming place filled with stunning architecture, cobblestone streets, and so much history. The vibe is peaceful yet lively, with amazing restaurants, cute shops, and scenic spots everywhere. A must-visit if you want to experience true Southern charm!"

First time visiting Savannah and I fell in love! The tress are just a beautiful piece of the history here. Walking down the shops was pleasant. I enjoyed the candy store I don’t remember the name but they make the candy there and give you samples. It’s a great shop to visit and bring the kids when visiting here. Walking down the waterfront was also nice and watching the boats pass by was neat. There is so much to look at and visit. The shops have a variety of options and restaurants to choose from. I highly recommend visiting here with family. Make sure to check the weather because it can get hot.

Beautiful live oaks & huge old statues. Best part of Savannah! Stay at a hotel on River Street or Bryan Street and walk to all the great shops, bars, restaurants and live music. Great for a weekend girls getaway.

The host was nice and knowledgeable about the memorabilia and history. She gave us incredible insight of the owners experiences. The scavenger hunt was fun and thought provoking. Active duty military gets free entry!

This was truly the highlight of my Savannah trip. The owner’s passion made the entire experience so much more engaging and insightful. The collection itself was absolutely mind blowing!! recommending this to everyone!!

My son is a huge military buff, and being 11 years old we were excited that he actually wanted to go to a museum lol. The moment we arrived we were welcomed by Webb himself (the owner of the museum). He was passionate, kind, intelligent, and well-versed with both history and his personal collection. I wouldn’t be surprised if we planned on going again in the near future. Things to know: parking is limited (pay to park), you can park and walk to it (garages are close proximity), it’s $10 to walk through the museum, and to get every little detail in plan on at least 45-60 minutes. Enjoy!!

This is a must see and is now my top recommendation for places in Savannah - the number and quality of the artifacts here rivals many much larger museums, displayed here with a personal touch and shockingly close access. If you are a military buff and want to closely examine and really “feel” the artifacts, this is the place to be.

This museum contains military memorabilia collected over a lifetime. The collection is extremely comprehensive and covers every conflict from the Revolution to Operation Enduring Freedom. I particularly found the history of the Webb family during WW II very compelling.

I have never seen so many authentic military items in one place. The owner is so knowledgeable and full of interesting stories and family history that you may want to stay quite a while. What a gem. I highly recommend taking your kids to this museum.

The Webb Military Museum in Savannah is an absolute gem. It is packed wall to wall with incredible memorabilia from different eras and everywhere you look there is something fascinating to discover. The museum is full of educational facts that really bring history to life and I loved that they even have a scavenger hunt to help you explore the displays more closely. While the space might seem small at first glance it is truly filled to the brim with artifacts and you could easily spend an hour or more walking through and still be spotting new things. A must visit for history lovers of all ages.

We had great fun! Everyone went above and beyond to make sure the experience was the best thing ever. It was so hot, make sure you bring sunscreen and drink lots of water if you're there for a day game like we were!

Absolutely gorgeous old school baseball stadium. Came here for the Savannah Bananas Team Store and then checked out the field. Such a cool experience, nice to see how they keep it modern yet has those 'golden era' touches to a baseball field. The team store itself is small and may be limited to your size but it's cool it's open for fans to come by and purchase items, the staff was super friendly and chill. Overall great experience!

I had the pleasure of enjoying a Savannah Bananas game for my birthday. I got my tickets after market but the event is fun for all ages & with all it included it's a good price even after market. Their games are very crowd interactive & even in this GA heat when the sun starts to go down it's very nice. I recommend coming early both for parking & concessions before the game. The staff is all super nice & helpful. There's several food & drink options burgers, hot dogs, snacks, and drinks ( water, soda, beer) all included with your ticket. I highly recommend enjoying a day at the park!

We had a fun time at the stadium watching Banana ball. The staff and players were very accommodating during the rain delay, and everyone provided a terrific family-friendly atmosphere.

Home of the savannah bananas, the stadium is over one hundred years old.Cool place to be at, the bananas put on a great show.They have a pre game, a regular show.And a post game, when the bananas are playing, it's free food, easy to get to and it was just a great experience

Visited the gift store and enjoyed the variety of merchandise. Especially the items only available while visiting the stadium.

What a phenomenal experience it’s is seeing the Savannah Bananas on their home field! This was only my 2nd visit. And how perfect for families to not have to pay for food and drinks, it’s all included in price of admission. Left field landing does not have seats.

My daughter had such a good time painting and doing crafts. Usually with children focused coffee shops the food and coffee are sub par, but not at this place. The pastries were delicious and the coffee was phenomenally made. As someone who loves coffee it was such a pleasure being able to enjoy good coffee while my daughter had a fantastic time.

Henny Penny Art Space & Cafe is an absolute gem! I recently visited and tried their glazed vegan donut, vegan lemon bread, and chai latte with oat milk. The cafe itself has such a warm, inviting vibe, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. It’s the kind of place where you can relax and enjoy good food while soaking in the creative atmosphere. I can’t wait to go back and try more! There are bike racks in front.

I love their coffee, it’s always delicious and consistent. But what I can’t get past is seeing the person making coffee pet dogs and then go right back to preparing drinks without washing his hands. Who does that in an establishment?!

Super cute spot with great coffee and delicious vegan donuts. Nice mini patio out front. Great selection of kids books and crafts.

Overall a good place for a drink and some breakfast. I had a mocha and two doughnuts all of which were great. Didn’t realize before entering but they had half of the shop set up such that arts/crafts could be done with children, which is really neat. We sat in that area not knowing but were thoroughly entertained by some of the family’s doing the activity.

A nice coffee shop/cafe with lots of vegan treats! It was really nice being able to find some vegan donuts, but compared to other large cities... The donuts are just ok, pretty basic and not fluffy/light. Also tried the vegan cookie dough brownie ... It was tasty and I'd recommend. Indoor and outdoor seating options available.

Fun place, great staff, and delicious baked goods. The donuts were a bit pricey but that’s expected since it’s vegan. I got the glazed donuts and a vegan brownie. The brownie; one of the BEST I’ve ever had. It had a soft, chewy texture that I loved along with a flavorful chocolate taste. And the donuts; light batter, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. So good! I was hoping there would be more donut flavors, but I’ll have to come back next time to see. Super cute place, I definitely recommend it!

We took the Savannah Ghost Tours, and Wendy was our guide. Wendy was well informed and I learn a lot about about the history of Savannah through the great stories that Wendy told. I highly recommend Savannah Ghost Tours and Wendy the tour guide. Thank you Wendy!

Greetings! My family and I had the pleasure of having a ghost tour with Izzy last Friday June 28, 2024 and I wanted to let those concerned know that she was fantastic. Polite, professional, kind and so knowledgeable! We thoroughly enjoyed the tour especially because no one else booked that time slot so we basically had our own private tour! She handled my many, many questions with grace and patience. Thank you so much Izzy! From your Canadian friends Heather, Dave, Tommy and Jenny!

My experience with this was absolutely amazing! The ghost tour was very informative, and our host brought so much fun and energy to the tour. We also got to walk all over Downtown Savannah, and got the opportunity to talk to some of the ghosts as well. If you ever decide to do a ghost tour, make it this one and make sure Savannah is your tour guide! There are quite a few tours available in the area, but this one is my absolute favorite down here!

My husband and I did a tour the other night for their 9:30 it was amazing. Our guide Jordan did such an amazing job guiding us through the chilling town of Savannah. The history here is amazing so much to learn and no better way then this tour plus you get to do a little paranormal investigation too.

We went on a tour with Savannah Ghost tours on Halloween night. We couldn’t have picked A better night and we couldn’t have picked a better guide. The weather was beautiful, the city was packed with Halloween costumes. This wasn’t my first ghost tour in Savannah, but I learned stuff on this tour about the city that I hadn’t known before. Wendy was our guide and she really knows her stuff about the paranormal and the history of Savannah. She was very knowledgeable and entertaining as well. Highly recommended.

My friends and I took this tour on Halloween night and what a fantastic time we had! The tour guide Wendy, was very knowledgeable and very passionate about her job. I will definitely recommend this ghost tour to my friends and family that want to do something spooky in the Savannah area. Thanks again for the great time!

I highly recommend this adult ghost tour. My partner and I went on the ghost tour on August 14 and had a great time! Our tour guide, Cody, was funny, personable, and extremely knowledgeable of the history of Savannah. We also loved using the spirit box for the first time! Also, we had accidently booked on the incorrect date and reached out to change it. They were very responsive via email and were able to squeeze us in the day of. I appreciate the customer service :)
