If you aren’t spending the 4th in Savannah but planning your summer vacay here, we have a few suggestions you will want to consider adding to your list of fun! Check out these ideas:
- A walking tour of the squares and famous buildings with a personal tour guide (we have our own)!
- A Ghost tour
- Tour Bonaventure Cemetery and Wormsloe historic site
- For architectural buffs, tour the Owens-Thomas House, The Telfair Museum and The Cathedral of St. John The Baptist.
- Check out the shops and restaurants in City Market, on River St. and Broughton St.
This is a small portion of the many things Savannah has to offer. If the beach is calling your name, head out to Tybee Island (about a 30 minute drive from Savannah) with a stop on the way to Fort Pulaski National Monument. You can see the Fort that fell under Union cannon fire and if you are lucky, you might be there on a day when they fire a cannon! Enjoy the many walking and bike trails throughout the park.
Once you get to Tybee, relax and enjoy the beach with the many activities offered such as kayaking, paddle boarding or take a dolphin tour. For the land lovers, rent a bike or golf cart and explore the island. Be sure and visit the local shops and restaurants with great, friendly folks to ensure a fun time!
