Your Itinerary

Forsyth Park

Your city-licensed guide will meet you in beautiful Forsyth Park on the corner of Gaston and Whitaker Streets to begin your stroll throughout Savannah's Historic District. See the famous, gorgeous fountain, marvel at the Armstrong-Kessler Mansion and its statuary garden, take great group shots with amazing backdrops, and learn how the Romantic Movement spawned this glorious "must-see" urban forest and park!

Monterey Square

You must-see all the stunning mansions and historic sights around this handsome square! Hear about "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" and how it impacted our city, see the only Gothic Revival synagogue in the U.S., learn about Savannah's connection to Count Pulaski, and so much more.

Troup Square

You really must see the square that Savannah residents vote their favorite--a true charmer in all of its details and surprising stories! Just wait and see...

Lafayette Square

The Hamilton-Turner Mansion, Andrew Low House, Cathedral Basilica of St. John-the-Baptist, Flannery O'Connor--all are highlights of this square that we must see! But, there are details often missed here that we will discover as well...a Charleston single house, our favorite stone lions, a girl scout cookie stockpile, our best dive bar, and the place Joe Odom from "The Book" loved best for his wild parties.

Madison Square

You must see all the historic sights and marvelous buildings on Madison Square! We will seek out carriage stoops, gargoyles, an English knot garden, lapis-lazuli ornamentation, historic cannons, a British double-decker bus, and bookstore felines here among other treasures. Discover how this place witnessed the drama of the Civil War in days long past, to where our renown art school got started via a VW Beetle in modern times.

Chippewa Square

See monumental statuary, columns, and steeples here! Discover why this square has enriched the city with not only the stately and dignified, but the cinematic and theatrical as well. A Packard dealership, a gigantic Christmas tree (in season), an Art Moderne marquee, and the aroma of espresso and gourmet chocolates are just some of the many details to soak in here.

Dee was very friendly and provided a great deal of interesting information regarding the history of the squares we visited and the mansions that we saw. He allowed plenty of time for photos and even took a photo of my group of 4 in front of the Forsyth Square fountain. He also gave some great dining recommendations. I highly recommend this tour.

Our tour guide, Devane, is very well versed about Savannah. He speaks highly of this pretty and historic city. We learned so much about various famous locals, many of the mansions and historical locations, the 22 squares, the religious houses of worship, the modernization of the area. We were the only 2 on the tour, and his personality was a great fit. We walked for 2 hours, and it went by quickly. The day was a little chilly, but there was a lot of sun. He made sure we were in the sunshine when he would stop to describe a site. We went out and bought the book he recommended, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. It was well worth it to introduce ourselves to Savannah through our guide.
