Day One

TAKE A TOUR

Get to know Savannah by experiencing a city tour, either on a period-style trolley or with a highly trained step-on guide. The tours last about 2 hours and will help you get better acquainted with our beautiful city.

SAVOR LOCAL FLAVORS

Go behind the scenes with your group and see Savannah’s local foodies at work. Savannah Bee Company, The Salt Table and Byrd Cookie Company are just a few of the establishments where you can get both a tour and a taste.

SWEET SUPPER

There are lots of options for a delicious Southern meal in Savannah, but there’s only one place to find ice cream made from original recipes for a hundred years! Leopold’s Ice Cream was opened in 1919 and still makes some of the shop’s bestselling flavors from that bygone era the same way right here in Savannah’s National Landmark Historic District. Try Lemon Custard, Rum Bisque, Tutti Frutti and more, only available in Savannah.

LAST CALL FOR ALCOHOL

At the American Prohibition Museum, you will take a journey through the institution and repeal of the 18th Amendment, complete with more than 200 original artifacts. You will be immersed in the history as they take photos with Al Capone, dance the Charleston (a favorite of the flappers), and feel the weight of a Tommy gun. You can even take a cocktail class in the museum’s authentic speakeasy to learn how to make libations from recipes of the period!

SOME BREW FOR YOU
