We had 2 days in Savannah. The visitors center and revolutionary war reenactment were a blast. Teens may BALK at the reenactment. Depends on your kiddos. Pulaski and the Owens-Thomas house are excellent. I don't see the Pinpoint Heritage Museum on your list. That is really a must.

We did Pulaski and Pinpoint in one day.
We did Owens-Thomas, Visitors Center, and the cathedral on another day.

We don't spend much time on lunch so that doesn't cut into our day. My teens are always hungry and eat fast so no lingering over meals :-)

Hi,

I’ve never been to the Skidaway Island trails so can’t comment on that but the rest of your plan sounds doable, matching what I’ve done some days. Have a great time in Savannah and vicinity! The squares and restaurants of Savannah still stand out for me as magical life experiences!

Thanks for the response. I agree that it is better to have a quick lunch.

I will probably visit more squares on the day that we are walking around the Historical Area. My kids don't really like going to museums. This is why I added Skidaway Island to our trip plan.
