The Best Savannah Tours

Getty Images

A great way to get to know Savannah, Georgia, is with the aid of someone who lives there and knows the city's history. With the help of traveler reviews and editor analysis, U.S. News selected Savannah's best guided tours, some of which focus on the city's architecture, others on its food and some on its ghostly residents . Whether you're walking through the Historic District or riding a Segway through a storied cemetery, you'll gain an insider's perspective on Savannah's top attractions , culture and folklore on these tours.

Editor’s Pick: Gray Line Savannah – Savannah Land & Sea Tour

Price: Adults from $74; kids from $36 Duration: 3 hours

U.S. News independently paid to send Tanvi Chauhan , a travel writer and book author based in Savannah, on this tour to provide readers with an unbiased, first-hand perspective of what to expect. Gray Line Savannah – Savannah Land & Sea Tour was selected by our team as an Editor’s Pick thanks to its popularity and favorable user reviews.

The combination tour offers an excellent way to both begin and conclude your day in the city. The land tour takes place aboard an open trolley bus, with a driver who also serves as your tour guide. Commencing at the Georgia State Railroad Museum, the tour proceeds through numerous renowned landmarks, including the iconic Forsyth Park , the historic Harper Fowlkes House and the infamous Sorrel-Weed House . You'll also see attractions featured in the New York Times bestseller "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil," such as Clary’s Café, and locations from "Forrest Gump," like Chippewa Square. The bus tour covers the historic district and a portion of River Street only. Popular districts like the Plant Riverside District, the newly developed Eastern Wharf and nonhistoric areas like Starland are not included on the tour. Guides are expert narrators with extensive knowledge of historical periods, especially in the Revolutionary War, Civil War and slave trade history. Due to the fast pace from one location to another, not much in-depth information is provided about any given landmark, making it best suited for travelers interested in a general overview.

The boat tour offers a unique perspective of the city skyline compared to the bus tour. Onboard the Georgia Queen, visitors receive a narrated tour by the captain, covering the history of the Savannah River, the Fort Jackson National Monument (which is visible along the route) and a deeper exploration of the Savannah port's economics.

Tanvi Chauhan

Why we love it:

• The tour guide may highlight minute details often overlooked in other, more generic tours. Traveling with guide John, for instance, offers casual learning opportunities about Webb Military Museum, the American Legion, the Kessler Mansion, the Gingerbread House, and the Victorian-style Forsyth Animal Hospital, along with amusing anecdotes about Sir Henry Ellis, after whom the Ellis Square is named.
• While meals are not provided on the boat tour, there is a bar with concessions available on both the inside and outside decks. Plus, opting for the 3:30 p.m. tour increases your chances of spotting dolphins (for free), as they're more active in late afternoon.
• The optimal way to experience this tour is to begin with a land tour at 9:30 a.m., which concludes at 11 a.m. You can request the driver to drop you off at any point on their loop for lunch at the end of the tour (consider trying the renowned Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room, open Monday to Friday only). After lunch, explore the city squares and make your way back to River Street to catch the 3:30 p.m. boat tour. The river tour typically finishes just as River Street and the adjacent Plant Riverside District come alive with live music, seafood restaurants, bars and vibrant activity.

Southern Flavors Savannah – Taste Tour & Pub Crawl

Price: From $60 Duration: 3 hours

Southern Flavors Savannah's Taste Tour takes small groups (of no more than 12 people) on a walk through downtown Savannah and along its riverfront with stops at six restaurants. In between samples of Lowcountry fare like pimento cheese and peach cobbler, travelers pass by several of the city's top attractions, including its famous squares. The food, and the respectable quantities of it, receive fulsome praise from reviewers, as do the tour guides, who travelers describe as personable and insightful.

The excursion starts daily at noon. Alcoholic beverages are not included in the ticket fee. Southern Flavors Savannah also conducts a tour focused exclusively on desserts as well as a haunted pub crawl.

Savannah Bike Tours – Pedal Through History Bike Tour

Price: Adults from $45; kids from $25 Duration: 2 hours

Savannah Bike Tours offers cycling trips that take visitors to some of the city's most popular attractions. During the 3-mile ride, travelers pass by several of Savannah's famous squares, Forsyth Park, the Savannah River waterfront, important places to the Girl Scouts and sites that have been featured in well-known movies. According to visitors, the bike tour allows you to cover more ground than a walking tour and includes insider tips from the local guides.

Tours are offered daily at 9 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 3 p.m.; an additional 6 p.m. tour is generally offered on Friday and Saturday. Tickets include the use of bikes with baskets and bottled water. Helmets, which are optional for adults, but mandatory for children, are also available. Electric bike tours and ghost-themed bike tours are also available.

Bonaventure Cemetery Tours

Price: From $30 Duration: 2 hours

Along this walking tour, you'll wander through Bonaventure Cemetery's 100-plus acres with a storytelling guide. You'll not only hear stories of the grounds, but also see where famous individuals are buried, such as Johnny Mercer, Conrad Aiken and more. Travelers call guides informative and loved their stories.

Tours run daily at 10 a.m.; an additional 8 a.m. or 2 p.m. tour is added to the calendar depending on the season.

Noble Jones – Savannah Saunter

Price: Adults from $30; kids from $23 Duration: 2 hours

For a crash course in Savannah history, consider this walking tour led by Noble Jones. As you stroll past top sights like Forsyth Park and River Street, you'll learn about the city's Colonial and Civil War history, as well as its modern-day renaissance. You'll also learn about the city's architecture, a highlight for travelers. Tourgoers also rave about the guides, who they describe as personable and well-versed in Savannah history.

Savannah Saunter tours are available daily in the morning and afternoon (generally 9:30 or 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.). History buffs may also be interested in the company's Civil War walking tour, which offers a more in-depth look at Savannah's role before, during and after the war.

Explore Savannah – Heart of Savannah - 2hr Walking Tour

Price: Adults from $30; kids from $15 Duration: 2 hours

Hear stories about Savannah's founding, its reputation as one of the most haunted cities in America and its connection to the Girl Scouts on this walk. Tours begin at Wright Square and end at Forsyth Park. Travelers are impressed with the tour's pace and the guides, who they say personalize the experience for each group and encourage questions. Some reviewers say this walking tour offers a better history lesson than the city's popular trolley tours.

Tours are offered twice a day at 9:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. Reservations are required. Explore Savannah also operates private walking tours.

Captain Derek's Dolphin Adventure

Price: Adults from $28; kids from $5 Duration: 1.5 hours

When you need a break from Savannah's historic squares and ghost stories, consider heading to Tybee Island for a cruise with Captain Derek's Dolphin Adventure. On this ride, you'll cruise around the coastal waters of the barrier island passing historic lighthouses and Fort Pulaski National Monument while dolphins play in the boat's wake. Reviewers praise the adept captain and crew, and report seeing an abundance of dolphins. Many travelers say this is a great, family-friendly activity.

Tour times vary by month; there is usually at least one morning departure and one afternoon departure. Boats depart from Tybee Island, about 15 miles east of River Street. Captain Derek's Dolphin Adventure also offers a sunset tour, in addition to private tours.

Hearse Ghost Tours – Public Hearse Ghost Tour

Price: From $35 Duration: 75 minutes

Ride around Savannah's Historic District in a convertible hearse on this ghost tour. Each hearse, which was used by real funeral parlors for more than 1,000 funerals, can hold a maximum of eight passengers. As you ride around town, your guide will regale you with tales about Savannah's paranormal activity and the stories behind the famous ghosts that supposedly haunt its streets. Reviewers applaud the entertaining guides and call the experience unique. Though it is a ghost tour, travelers say the guides manage to incorporate a fair amount of levity in their storytelling.

Tour times vary by month; the company usually runs at least two tours a night, starting as early as 5 p.m. Private tours are also available.

Soon-to-open Wexford Irish Pub tells a singular story through its design and architecture

This article is the second in a series about the Wexford Irish Pub.

It’s a mystery why the City of Savannah does not have an Irish heritage museum. The soon-to-open Wexford Pub in City Market comes close, however, with the way its architecture and interiors work seamlessly to tell the unique story of Irish immigration to Georgia’s first city, which was driven not by potatoes but by prospects and prosperity in the mid-1800s.   

The Wexford’s co-owners, Tim and Jennifer Strickland and Chris Swanson, stumbled upon the narrative thread that would anchor their newest endeavor in the archives of Georgia Southern University’s Center for Irish Research and Teaching, led by Howard Keeley. That research provided the soul to every aspect of The Wexford’s design, furnishings and finishes, explained Darren Fagan, managing partner of U.S. operations for the Irish Pub Co., the Dublin-based global design-build firm that brought the Stricklands’ vision for a truly authentic Irish pub in Savannah to life.

“I had a broad vision in my head of the direction that this was going to go, and it was crystal clear to me how it should look,” said Fagan. “Once we got Howard involved – and I love the micro-details, love getting into the weeds – he provided us all the fodder to do that. We took it to an intense level with Wexford.”

Fagan admits that getting into the weeds caused him to take “probably five times longer than we would normally” to develop the of-place details of such a singular space, “but it’s still a great design.”

“Every single piece in there has to have value,” said Fagan, whose background in mechanical engineering, metal fabrication and building displays for such companies as Estee Lauder for high-end department stores such as Harrods gave him the distinctive skills to do this work.

The millwork from the first-floor bar and the stairs to the landings and the partitions between intimate enclaves called “snugs” reflect Irish craftsmanship across years, as if The Wexford had existed the same 150 span as the building it occupies and had been altered and added onto as a pub would be in Wexford Town or Kilrane.

No two cabinets are the same, said Fagan. “So, the attention to every layer… floor finishes, glass light fixtures, bric-a-brac, which is the memorabilia and knick-knacks around the walls and in the cabinets, the wallpaper to paint…

“The story supports the architectural design and the aesthetics support everything. So, every time you walk through, you see something different, and it makes you think… Because Ireland, and the export of pubs is about the story of Ireland.”

'There's a sciene to pubs'

And it’s also a story about creating an intentional experience never seen before in Savannah.

“There’s a science to pubs in Ireland… and that relates to the way you enter, how many steps it is to the bar, the types of places you sit, where you sit,” said Brian Felder, lead architect and principal of Savannah-based Felder and Associates . “[The Irish Pub Co.] essentially come[s] in and do[es] a schematic layout of where the humans go, where the bar is placed, how big it is. They know the science of how much space you need to serve beer and how many beer taps you should have, and where they should be and how far apart they should be.”

Felder and his team served as the liaison between the owners’ wants and the pub company, working with engineers to translate how to drop a finished interior surface into a historic structure. “It’s extra challenging in terms of codes and preservation guidelines, which are part of the ordinance.”

Felder described how there are “five layers of things going on over your head in 9 inches of space – beer lines, electrical lines, lighting, HVAC … it’s very complex.”

Felder had to figure out how to “shoehorn” modern conveniences and systems by flattening out ducts that are 30 inches wide by 4 inches deep to cool a space where up to 500 patrons across two floors are drinking beer and listening to live music. That intricate systems design and engineering involved cutting through steel beams, running up the middle of columns, hiding boxes behind mahogany wood panels so that they would not detract from the design but would make the spaces comfortable enough to linger a while.

“It’s a little like designing a Gulfstream jet,” said Felder. “Every cubic inch in that space is occupied by something.”

Those somethings include custom stained- and leaded-glass windows and panels with flourishes like a barley plant – winking across the room at a whiskey barrel. Mirrored insets hold a bit of wisdom from famous Irish poets and artists such as Brendan Behan . A wall leading to the second-floor restrooms will be populated by a rotating exhibition of research by Keeley’s students.

“I think that because there are different points of access in the pub – the architecture, the imagery, the music, the food, the broader kind of ambience – somebody is going to connect to one of those things, right?” said Keeley, whose students also are developing neighborhood walking tours to tell an even fuller narrative around Savannah’s unique Irish immigrant experience. “I think that the magic is that we have a kind of anchor story, which is that Wexford story.”
