Things To Do
Forsyth Park
One of the most popular things to do is visit Forsyth Park. Lined with majestic oaks around its perimeter, the 30+ acre Forsyth Park is a popular walking and running spot for residents and visitors. The Forsyth Park fountain is one of the iconic images of Savannah.
Savannah Squares
There’s no other city in the world like Savannah with its 22 squares that you are bound to come across whenever you walk around. The squares are surrounded by gorgeous historic homes, museums and churches. It’s breathtakingly beautiful and peaceful.
Wormsloe State Historic Site
Only 15 minutes away from Savannah’s downtown is Wormsloe historic site – the colonial estate of Noble Jones, who arrived in Georgia along with James Oglethorpe and the first group of settlers from England. I know all this doesn’t sound particularly exciting, unless you are really into history. But what will definitely blow your mind away is the alley sheltered by grand oaks and Spanish moss leading to the estate. The kind of place you can only see in Savannah!
Ghost Tour
Those who would like to explore the darker side of the city, can join a ghost tour and listen to the stories of murder, witchcraft and mayhem! The tours usually take place in the evening, some as late as 11 pm. Those sights that you marveled at during day time like Chipewa square and The Olde Pink House will give you the creeps late at night when you hear what happened there!

Eat Shrimp & Grits
No trip to Savannah is complete without indulging in a plate of shrimp and grits. This dish, which originated in the Lowcountry, combines creamy, stone-ground grits with plump, sautéed shrimp, often served with a flavorful sauce made from bacon, garlic, and onions. Our favorite places to have shrimp & grits is at The Public Kitchen & Bar.
