Home to the gorgeous and historic Forsythe Park Fountain, this park has southern central park vibes (though on a MUCH smaller scale) It's still a beautiful place to visit worth walking through.

Dubbed the prettiest street in Savannah, I would argue it's the prettiest street in the country. Or at least the prettiest street I've ever visited. Enjoy the architecture and don't miss all the parks along this historic street!
Jones Street
Savannah's equivalent to Charleston's King Street (but I like this one better) Broughton has a ton of shops and restaurants that you'll be glad you found! Plus there's some great spots for souviners too!

If you're staying in the Historic District and didn't rent a car you'll have to Uber here, but it's still worth a trip! You might recognize the scenery here from the Miley Cyrus movie The Last Song. This is a wonderful spot for a beautiful photo op!
Wormsloe State Historic Site
Need a little beach in your life? Then take the 30 minute Uber to Tybee Island! It's a great quick day trip from Savannah and gives you the perfect ocean vibes while still feeling like Savannah.
Tybee Island
This was the most beautiful cemetery I've ever seen. It is 100% worth making it out here. As always with places like this, be respectful as this is many people's final resting place and many people have family members resting here too.
Bonaventure Cemetery
Eat & Drink
There's something about Southern food that really speaks to me, and honestly should speak to everyone. I love Savannah's food scene. Not only is the food amazing, but the vibes of the city really spreads into the dining experiences.
The brunch here is so great! The line can get super long, so be sure ot get there nice and early!
Collins Quarter
This little unassuming Parisian cafe is right near River Street and has some great lattes and croissant sandwiches!
Café M
The waffles here are awesome! And it's near the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist so it's a great place to check out right after!
Mirabelle
Open Monday through Friday 11-2 you should expect to get here around 10am if you want to get a good time. It's cash only, and a wonderful place if you want some authentic southern cuisine! It's often referred to as the #1 restaurant in Savannah.
Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room
Stop in here and get the Champagne pops! They also have a really cool nightlife scene at their rooftop bar!
The Grove
Do you want to feel transported to the 20s? Then head over to Prohibition Bar! They have some classic american food and some great seafood options!

Stays
I'm going to reccommend you stay either on River Street or in the Historic District if you can. It's the best way to get a bang for your buck when it comes to Savannah. This way you don't necessarily have to rent a car and can get by walking just abo...
They have decent rooms and are pretty centrally located. This a good spot if you're wanting something more simple. It doesn't have as much charm as some of the other boutique hotels in the area. But it's got decent prices for the area!
SpringHill Suites Savannah Downtown/Historic District
Looking for something a little bit more swanky? The Bohemian is a good option. It's on the riverfront and has gorgeous architecture and a rooftop bar and lounge!
The Bohemian Hotel Savannah Riverfront, Autograph Collection
There's something about staying on the water that really appeals to me. This is the oldest hotel on River Street and was recently remodeled and has mid range pricing for the area.
River Street Inn | Savannah Riverfront Hotels
This place has a ton of character and is known to be one of the best places to stay in Savannah. It has a ton of character and the pricing is anywhere from $250-$300 per night which makes it a little more expensive but still worth it!
Kehoe House
The location of this hotel is amazing. It's a luxury inn with a little bit lower of a price point. Though they do often have a two night minimum for weekends so keep that in mind when looking into your trip to Savannah!
Presidents’ Quarters Inn
With a rooftop bar and restaurant on site this place is one of those modernly charming sites. It's hard to do well, but Perry Lane does a great job!
Perry Lane Hotel, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Savannah
This is one of the top 25 small town hotels in the country and just one look at the outside and you can tell why. The Hamilton Turner Inn is a on the slightly higher end, but still worth it!
