Architectural Tours of Savannah
Architectural Tours of Savannah is a tour company with walks led by Jonathan Stalcup. Jonathan graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design with a Master of Architecture degree in 2004. He shares Savannah’s history with both visitors and locals by describing the city’s built environment. Oglethorpe’s original plan, today’s desire to balance preservation with a living city, and almost 300 years in between are presented as a narrative timeline.
SCAD Museum of Art
See artwork by Savannah’s emerging artists. The SCAD Museum of Art is a contemporary museum where the exhibitions rotate based on the academic term. The Savannah College of Art an Design has over 11,000 students from nearly 50 states and over 100 countries, so you know you’ll see things you’ve never experienced before.
Visit the “Sistine Chapel of the South”
With majestic peaks that pierce the sky and 81 stained glass windows, it’s no wonder why the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist may be the most photographed landmark in Savannah. The Cathedral is a peaceful place to soak in history and beauty.
Cruise Along The River
Floating down the Savannah River takes travelers back to a time when river travel was a relaxing and prestigious activity. Savannah Riverboat Cruises offers a variety of river tours including the sightseeing cruise, dinner entertainment cruise and the beautiful sunset and moonlight entertainment cruise.
Kayak Across Protected Waters
There’s no better way to experience the stunning marshes and rivers of Savannah’s Lowcountry than by kayaking on them. Moon River Kayak Tours allows you the opportunity to get up close and personal with nature and history. Explore the protected waters of Skidaway Narrows, admire eagles and osprey soaring in the sky, and spot dolphins and otters!
Stroll through Forsyth Park
If you do bring your fur baby, Forsyth Park is perfect for lounging in the grass or throwing a Frisbee. Dating back to the 1840s, Forsyth Park occupies 30 acres in the Historic District. The iconic water fountain at the center is a landmark in itself, but Fragrant Garden, walking trails and a quaint cafe make for a relaxing spot on your itinerary.
Stroll River Street
One could not come to Savannah without admiring the river on River Street. The old cobblestone streets weave you through historic buildings, housing shops and restaurants. This scenic stroll is a must-do.
Bonaventure Cemetery
Designed as a traditional Victorian cemetery with curving pathways, Bonaventure Cemetery rests on a whopping 100 acres. Although a cemetery, it was common for families to meet and picnic here on the grassy spots under the trees. Bonus: if you’re a fan of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, you’ll enjoy this!

Speaking of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil... The Just Around Midnight Tour is a deep dive into Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Specially crafted for fans of The Book and/or The Movie, this tour focuses on characters and events depicted in John Berendt’s masterwork, as well as on the unique downtown Savannah culture he describes so well. You’ll also get a ground-level look at sites where the story unfolds, including the Hamilton-Turner Inn, Clary’s Cafe, and Mercer-Williams House.
