10 Team Building Activities in Savannah That Aren't Boring

Gather in unexpected locations.

They say teamwork makes the dream work, but goals can fall flat when motivation is missing. Once the meeting or convention wraps up, attendees often scatter in different directions. That's why you need a destination that inspires connection even after the breakout sessions end.

Savannah, GA, isn’t just easy on the eyes—it's a city that delivers unforgettable team-building experiences you won't find anywhere else. Here, every tour, restaurant and landmark transforms into a hands-on opportunity for your group to bond, collaborate and have a little fun along the way.

Let’s Get Hands On

How often can you say that you created something with your own two hands? Savannah's creative side shines through at Sea Love Candle Bar & Boutique and Salacia Salts, where sensory experiences spark connection.

Discuss the kids' and holiday plans over a glass of wine at Sea Love as you choose from over 100 aromas to create signature candles and diffusers. Why not bond over a great skincare routine? Salacia Salts invites groups to blend all-natural ingredients into clay masks and body scrubs in a calming, coastal-inspired workshop.

Make Em’ Laugh

Laughter is the best medicine for connection, and Savannah has the perfect dosage. Hey, we're always down for a good or even bad Dad joke. If your team’s humor leans toward clever—or even corny—come share some laughs at Front Porch Improv and Savannah for Morons.

Front Porch Improv is a weekly comedy show where a cast of quick-witted locals brings the house down with unscripted, audience-fueled comedy. And the best part? Improv training, classes and workshops are available for groups!

History takes a hilarious turn when accompanied by two very colorful hosts aboard a trolley. Savannah for Morons takes attendees on a 90-minute joyride throughout the Historic Landmark District, regaling them with outrageous anecdotes, skits, music, trivia, and moronic fun about the city's history.

Let Conversations Brew

Afternoon tea might be an underrated art form, but Savannah's Ashford Tea Company gives it a modern revival. Founder and tea connoisseur Wayne Wray brings more than 30 years of experience to every pour, transforming each tasting into an immersive experience.

Groups can mingle and sip from an impressive selection of global and signature blends while learning about the wellness benefits behind each cup. It's a thoughtful, slow-paced team-building activity that fosters conversation, mindfulness, and connection—one steep at a time.

Give Back & Make a Difference

Team building takes on new meaning when it makes a genuine impact. Savannah’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs invite groups to give back to our wonderful community while strengthening bonds within their own. From packing meals with Second Harvest of Coastal Georgia to helping local youth at the West Broad Street YMCA or joining the Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia to support troops overseas, there’s no shortage of ways to lend a hand.

Tybee Wellness Retreats invites groups to unwind with a three-day oceanfront escape designed to restore balance and focus. Through nutrition workshops, yoga sessions, guided meditation, and stress-management activities, attendees can reconnect with nature, themselves and one another in a truly holistic way.
