Planning Your Time

Savannah is not large, but it is atmospheric, and you want to make sure you allow sufficient time to soak in the ambience and see the sights. You'll need at least two or three days to fully appreciate the Historic District and its many sights, not to mention the food, which is an integral part of the Savannah experience. You'll need another day or two to see the sights in the surrounding area, including a jaunt out to Tybee Island for a fishing trip, kayaking tour, or relaxing on the beach. Some travelers head north to Hilton Head or Charleston to round out their Lowcountry experience.
