Savannah Private Tour History
Influential History

Sailing into native Yamacraw land, founder James Oglethorpe arrived on Savannah’s bluffs in 1733 where Revolutionary and Civil War era structures, like Fort Pulaski, still remain. Visitors will soon understand why Savannah’s most beloved icons are the squares and parks of the Historic District; each square exhibits its own statue which carries a unique story of Savannah history. Savannah has been home to many notable figures including Girl Scouts founder Juliette Gordon Low and inventor Eli Whitney. Incorporate history into your Savannah Private Tour.

Natural Landscapes

Downtown Savannah’s towering live oak trees draped dramatically in Spanish moss create a stately feel, yet leaves the imagination open to the supernatural. Grand magnolias offer aromatic springtime blossoms. Georgia’s many coastal barrier islands offer protection while providing sandy beaches, rolling, wind-swept waves, salt marshes and swamps. The landscape varies so much that walking, biking, boating, or even a carriage ride could give a new perspective on this gorgeous Georgian coast.

Unforgettable Excursions

For a day at the beach one need look no further than Tybee Island, “Savannah’s Beach.” Long stretches of sandy beach make for a perfect getaway on this quaint, coastal island just a short drive from downtown. Enjoy stunning panoramic views from Tybee Lighthouse and Museum for those daring enough to make the climb. A bit farther afield, Jekyll Island offers dazzling Driftwood Beach and the Georgia Sea Turtle Center for wildlife enthusiasts. Incorporate excursions into your Savannah Private Tour.
