If you have only one day in the city and want to hit as many of the high points as possible, my Old Savannah Trolley Tours itinerary is the way to go!
You won’t need a car at all — you’ll just use the Hop-On/Hop-Off trolley to get around.
I’ve included my favorite suggested stopping points along the route for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and desserts (of course)! I’ve also noted a few tours you might want to try.
Finally, I’ve made note of any reservations you’ll need to make in advance.

Note: This guide contains affiliate links to my trusted travel partners.
If you’re new around here, first of all… welcome . Thanks for stopping by!
My name is Erin, and I authored the Savannah First-Timer’s Guide . It’s a helpful ebook that contains all of my top tips about Savannah.
Trip Planning: Before You Go
If it wasn’t obvious by the title, I’ve based this itinerary on the Old Savannah Tours Hop-On/Hop-Off trolley .
It’s the one I recommend most since I always try to promote locally-owned businesses. They’ve been voted Best Trolley Tour in Savannah every year since 2003!
Technically you can do this itinerary using Old Savannah Tours Hop-On/Hop-Off trolley or Old Town Trolley’s Hop-On/Hop-Off option.
The stop numbers vary between the two, but otherwise they’re very similar!
NOTE: If you’re trying to decide which trolley tour would work best for you, my Savannah trolley tours review post includes a map and in-depth comparison chart of all the options.
Step 01: Purchase Your Trolley Tickets
- Purchase Old Savannah Tours Hop-On/Hop-Off Tickets
- Purchase Old Town Trolley Hop On/Hop-Off Tickets
Step 02: Research Restaurant Menus
There are a few restaurants along the trolley route that I recommend. I’ve linked to each one so you can check out the menus in advance to see which look the most appealing.
- Breakfast: Collins Quarter Cafe at Forsyth Park , Clary’s Cafe , Mirabelle Cafe , or J. Christopher’s
- Lunch: Vinnie Van Go Go’s or The Pirates’ House
- Dinner: Vic’s on the River
My personal favorites are Clary’s Cafe (locally-owned) or The Collins Quarter for breakfast and Vinnie Van Go Go’s (locally-owned) for lunch.

Step 03: What to Pack
On the day of your trip, bring a refillable bottled water, a pen for note-taking, and your camera.
Our rainy season peaks June through September, so you might also want to bring a travel rain poncho those months. They’re lighter and easier to carry than an umbrella.
Trolley Tour Parking
If you’re driving into Savannah and need to park your car, you can park for free in one of the lots owned by the trolley tour company you selected.
Each company owns two lots, and all of the lots are within an approximate 5-minute walk to the trolley departing point.
Old Savannah Tours Parking – Their larger lot is at 215 W Boundary Street – Their smaller (but closer) lot is at 255 Montgomery Street
Old Town Trolley Parking – 234 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. (closest lot) – 214 W Boundary Street
If the trolley company lots are full or if you have mobility issues and want to park as close to the starting point as possible, then I suggest parking at the Savannah Visitor Center.
Parking at the Visitor Center is free the first hour and $1/hr thereafter.
Savannah Visitor Center – 301 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.

Old Savannah Trolley Tours Itinerary
Let’s plan your day.
Stop #1 (Starting Point): Savannah Visitor Center
The trolleys depart from the Savannah Visitor Center. If your hotel isn’t close to the Visitor Center, Old Savannah Trolley Tour company will send a shuttle to pick you up at no additional cost.
There are restrooms inside the Visitor Center, so you might want to take advantage of them before you depart.
If you forgot to bring a water bottle, you can purchase one inside.
Don’t worry too much about breakfast, because you can stop to eat within the first 30 minutes or so of this tour.
NOTE: If you’re a big Forrest Gump fan, the Savannah History Museum is located inside the Visitor Center. It’s where the famous Forrest Gump bench is located.
Breakfast & Non-Stop Trolley Ride
First things first, you’re going to relax and ride the trolley all the way around so you’ll get a good overview of the city and its history. You’ll only hop off for breakfast.
Use your pen to make notations on the map of any landmarks that look interesting to you!
Depending on which menu you liked best, you’re going to hop off at Stop 4, 5 or 6 to get some food in your belly!
Here are your breakfast options:
- Stop # 4: Collins Café at Forsyth Park – The setting is beautiful — right in the center of Forsyth Park — and the food and coffee are delish. You can’t go wrong with the Raspberry French Toast and a hot latte or refreshing strawberry mimosa.
- Stop #5: Clary’s Café – This is such a classic Savannah spot! It was featured in the movie Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil , so there are photos of the cast and crew hanging along the back wall. It’s a no-frills kind of place, but the staff is friendly, and you’ll get a very hearty breakfast. FYI: This is my favorite option!
- Stop #6: Mirabelle Café – This adorable Parisian-style café has a perfect view of the Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist. You absolutely can’t go wrong with any of the waffle options!
- Stop #6: J. Christopher – This is a nice all-around spot if you’re traveling with picky eaters. There’s something for everyone here! Service is usually quick, so it’s also a good option if you’re traveling with a large group of people.
After breakfast, hop back on the trolley and listen as the guide provides an overview of Savannah’s history. If you opt for Old Savannah Tours, a few characters will hop on the trolley to help bring history to life!

Savannah Visitor Center Break
After you’ve done the entire loop once, hop off at the Visitor Center for a little break.
This is a good time to “check out the restrooms” as my mom likes to say or to pick up brochures for some of the attractions that looked interesting to you.
Afternoon Hop-Off Trolley Ride
The second time around, you’re going to exit at any of the stops that looked appealing to you.
You’ll essentially create your own itinerary from the notes you made on your map, but I’m going to provide some suggestions to help out!
![old savannah tours parking Historic building with a white and blue sign near the road that reads Bus Stop Local Tour Buses Only](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/IMG_1315_SAV_Trolley-Tour-Sign_1200x800-1024x683.jpg)
Stop #2: Chippewa Square – Hop OFF & Back ON
I adore this square and think it’s a good place to hop off.
Chippewa Square is known as the “Forrest Gump square”, since it’s where his famous bench scenes were filmed.
The bench was just a movie prop, so you won’t actually see it in the square (although there are plenty of other benches scattered about), but the square is very beautiful and so are the surrounding buildings.
📸 Photo Opportunities: My top suggestions include The Historic Savannah Theatre, Independence Presbyterian Church (also of Forrest Gump fame — the feather blew past it in the opening scene of the movie), and the haunted Foley House Inn. There are two beautiful homes on the square that you might also want to photograph.
![old savannah tours parking The Savannah Theatre marquis sign at dusk in the background and a historic brick sidewalk and lamppost in the foreground](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/IMG_1194_SAV_Savannah-Theatre_800x1200_TNY-683x1024.jpg)
Stop #3: Madison Square – Hop OFF & Back ON
Architecture fanatics should hop off at this stop to see the stunning Scottish Rite Building.
It’s not open for touring, but the street level is currently home to SCAD’s Gryphon restaurant.
The restaurant is a cozy place to stop for tea or a light lunch on a rainy day.
Another compelling reason to hop off is to venture inside adorable E.Shaver, Booksellers.
It’s one of my favorite bookstores in Savannah! It’s a great place to pick up local souvenirs or to visit with the cats that freely roam about the store.
If you’re a history buff (Civil War-era), make note that the Green-Meldrim House is where General Sherman was headquartered when he stayed in Savannah.
🎁 Souvenir Opportunities: Consider purchasing something by a local author at E. Shaver, Bookseller. My current favorite book by a Savannahian is “Sketching Savannah” by Ivan Chow.
📸 Photo Opportunities : The top photo opportunities at this stop include the stunning Scottish Rite Building, the charming E. Shaver Booksellers, the haunted Sorrel Weed House, and the historic Green-Meldrim House.
![old savannah tours parking Old Savannah Trolley Tours goes pas the beautiful Scottish Rite building, which is trimmed with gold and touches of blue](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/IMG_6103_SAV_Gryphon-Tea_800x1200_TNY-683x1024.jpg)
Stop #4: Forsyth Park – Hop OFF and Walk
Hop off here to see the famous Forsyth Fountain — one of the most classic photo locations in Savannah.
If you want to take a stroll, the homes on the Whitaker and Gaston sides of the street are prettiest.
My advice is NOT to hop back on the trolley when you finish at Forsyth Park, but to instead walk directly north on Bull Street.
You’ll pass an impressive white house at the north end of the park — that’s the Armstrong-Kessler Mansion.
You’re probably going to want to snap a selfie in front of it since it was in the movie “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.”
Keep walking straight for one block and you’ll run into Monterey Square, which is one of my all-time favorite squares in Savannah. So many incredible homes and landmarks surround this square!
From there, stroll down Taylor Street two blocks east to Calhoun Square, where you’ll hop back on the trolley.
You’ll pass some beautiful homes on the way.
🎁 Souvenir Opportunity: V&J Duncan Maps and Antiques is a true hidden gem and a great place to purchase locally-authored books and unique maps.
🏠 Tour Opportunity: The Mercer Williams House is available for touring.
📸 Photo Opportunities: The stunning Alex Raskin Antiques building, which is one of the oldest unrestored mansions remaining in Savannah; Congregation Mickve Israel, the third oldest Jewish synagogue in the country; and the Mercer Williams House, which was also made famous by Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil .
![old savannah tours parking Forsyth Park fountain at dusk surrounded by gas-lit lamps and trees covered in Spanish moss](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/ADB_122991799_SAV_Forsyth-Fountain_1200x800_TNY-1024x683.jpg)
Stop #5: Calhoun Square – Hop Back ON
Massie Heritage Center is the main draw at this stop. Venture inside if you want…they have a cool 3D model of the Historic District.
There’s also a beautifully restored home located at 432 Abercorn Street that’s so pretty you might want a picture of it.
You’d probably never guess by looking at it, but some people think it’s one of the most haunted homes in Savannah !
Calhoun Square itself is also considered haunted, since it’s reportedly the site of a mass slave burial ground.
Historic Wesley Monumental Church, established in 1868, also sits on this square.
It’s a fairly boring stop, so I don’t recommend spending too much time here. Hop back on the trolley at this location to head to the next one!
📸 Photo Opportunities: Calhoun Square and Wesley Monumental Church, plus a few of the surrounding homes
![old savannah tours parking A white trolley with Old Savannah Tours written on its side is parked in front of an old church with red doors and a newly wedded bride and groom walk towards the trolley](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/IMG_6587_SAV_Old-Savannah-Tours_1200x800_TNY-1024x683.jpg)
Stop #6: The Cathedral of St. John – Hop OFF & Back ON
The Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist is one of the most incredible sights in all of Savannah.
Definitely go inside, since the interior is breathtaking and very photo-worthy.
There’s no cost to enter, but you’re welcome to leave a few dollars at the donation station by the door.
Donations help with the maintenance of the building…and that lovely air conditioning you’ll enjoy while inside.
If you’re not running low on time, walk across Liberty Street to see historic (and haunted!) Colonial Park Cemetery .
It’s filled with historic gravesites from duels, wars, and the Great Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1820.
Head back to the Cathedral to hop back on the trolley after you’ve seen the cemetery.
📸 Photo Opportunities: The interior and exterior of Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist, and the east wall of Colonial Park Cemetery
![old savannah tours parking A metal cross is backlit on a fence while the massive spires of the Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist loom in the background](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/IMG_8017_SAV_Cathedral-St-John_1200x800_TNY-1024x683.jpg)
Stop #7: The Pirates House – Lunch Option
This is the first lunch option out of two spots, so if you’re getting hungry you might want to hop off and grab a bite to eat at their buffet.
The She Crab Soup and the Pecan Crusted Fried Chicken are two of their most popular dishes.
Both are on the buffet, but you’ll have to request the honey pecan sauce for the chicken from one of the servers. (Insider tip: This dish is better for when you order it as your entire meal [only available on the dinner menu] vs. ordering from the buffet!)
The Herb House portion of the Pirates’ House was constructed in 1734, so it’s one of the oldest still-standing structures in the state of Georgia.
And yes, the building is aptly named since actual pirates used to hang out there.
If you aren’t hungry, you can take photos of the building from the trolley and head on the next stop.
![old savannah tours parking Gray wooden structure with turquoise shutters](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/IMG_6065_SAV_Pirates-House_Haunted_800x1200_TNY-683x1024.jpg)
Stop #8: Owens-Thomas House & Slave Quarters
While I absolutely love the work that has gone into restoring this home and consider it one of the top tours in Savannah, they have a frustrating check-in process and it’s rather difficult to fit it in if you only have one day in Savannah.
For that reason, I suggest staying on board and photographing it from the trolley.
If you’re ever in town for a longer period of time, definitely include this as a “must-see” on your list!
It’s actually one of the top ten tours I recommend in Savannah in my Savannah First-Timer’s Guide .
![old savannah tours parking The Owens-Thomas House is an old tan stucco two-story home with green shutters and an elaborate front entry](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/IMG_1326_SAV_Owens-Thomas-House_1200x800_TNY-1024x683.jpg)
Stop #9: Telfair Museum
Unless you’re an avid art lover, this is yet another stop where you can photograph the buildings and adjacent square from inside the trolley.
![old savannah tours parking Three statues of men in robed attire stand guard in front of the yellow Telfair Academy building](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/IMG_5174_SAV_Telfair-Museum_IG_TNY-1024x1024.jpg)
Stop #10: City Market – Lunch Option – Hop OFF
By now I imagine you’re probably getting pretty hungry.
I suggest hopping off at this stop to grab a slice of Vinnie Van Go Go’s pizza. The price is right at less than $5 for a giant slice.
Be sure to request extra crispy crust!
If Vinnie’s has too long of a wait (it’s very popular), you can opt for a fancier meal at Belford’s or walk over to Little Duck Diner — an adorable retro diner at the corner of Barnard and W. Saint Julian Street.
While you’re in City Market , stroll around and check out some of the talented artists in their studios.
Be sure to sample the sweets at Byrd Cookie Co. and Savannah Candy Kitchen!
You’ll be back in this area for Stop #16, so wait to make your purchases then. (That way you won’t have to lug items around with you.)
Tour Opportunities: One of my favorite tours in Savannah is the First African Baptist Church tour (also a “top ten” in my ebook). The church is located just west of City Market and Franklin Square. If you have the time, I highly suggest it! Tours are Wed-Sat at 3 pm only. Plan to spend an hour and a half inside. Another really fun tour to try in this area is American Prohibition Museum . I suggest purchasing tickets in advance.
![old savannah tours parking Gold sign with white lettering that reads City Market](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/DP_75399939_SAV_City-Market-Sign_1200x800_TNY-1024x683.jpg)

Stop #11: Reynolds Square
The Olde Pink House restaurant is the main attraction at this stop.
It’s an iconic restaurant in Savannah and so popular that you need to make reservations months in advance.
Take photos from the trolley or hop off to get better shots. There’s a tavern in the basement if you’re in the mood for drinks!
If you’re craving dessert and don’t mind standing in ridiculously long line to get it, stroll one block south to Broughton Street to enjoy some Leopold’s Ice Cream.
📸 Photo Opportunities: The Olde Pink House Restaurant, Lucas Theatre, and the Leopold’s Ice Cream sign with the SCAD sign in the background.
![old savannah tours parking Stately two-story pink stucco home with flags displayed over the front portico](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/IMG_5296_SAV_Olde-Pink-House-Haunted_1200x800_TNY-1024x683.jpg)
Stop #12: E Factors Walk
I’m a huge fan of Factors Walk, but in the interest of saving time I’m going to suggest you stay on the trolley here and hop off two stops later on West Factors Walk. There’s more to see on the west end.
Enjoy the scenery in this area as you make your way down towards River Street!
Stop #13: Market Landing – Hop OFF and Back ON (or walk!)
River Street is one of the most well-known streets in Savannah, so you’ll definitely want to hop off here!
The east end of River Street is the quieter and less crowded end of the street.
Head over to the Waving Girl Statue to take a photo of Florence Martus, who gained notoriety for waving at all the passing ships.
If you’re lucky, you might even spot a giant container ship coming into port while you’re there!
There’s an open-air marketplace where you can do more souvenir shopping, but nothing there particularly screams “Savannah” to me.
If you’re in the mood to stretch your feet, you can walk from this area along the riverfront to get to the next stop…or you can hop back on the trolley to ride to the next stop.
📸 Photo Opportunities: The Waving Girl Statue, River Street, and any giant container ships that happen to pass by
Stop #14: Cotton Exchange Building – Hop OFF
If you haven’t already read my post about Factors Walk , you should! There are so many unique things to see in this area.
The Old Cotton Exchange Building is the famous building that most people think of when they picture River Street, and the winged lion stands guard in front of it.
You can actually walk underneath the Cotton Exchange building to get to River Street, and I recommend doing so just to say you’ve done it!
When you get to River Street, you’ll see the Georgia Queen Riverboat (if it isn’t out on a cruise) and you’ll be near my favorite candy shop, River Street Sweets.
To get back to the trolley, walk up the ramp located next to Olympia Café (you’ll be walking towards the City Hall building with the gold dome at the top).
You might want a photo of the exterior of the cafe, since it was in the Joe Jonas movie, “Devotion.”
Once you round the corner of the ramp, you’ll see the unique Cluskey Vaults, which are worth exploring.
Be sure to look to your left and make note of Vic’s on the River, since it’s a potential dinner spot!
🎁 Souvenir Opportunity: River Street Sweets is the top seller of pralines in the world. I suggest sampling them while they’re warm, and then buy a half-dozen (or more!) to take home with you.
📸 Photo Opportunities: The Old Cotton Exchange Building, the Old City Exchange Bell, the winged lion statue, the Georgia Queen Steamboat, and the Cluskey Vaults
![old savannah tours parking A terra cotta winged lion statue stands guard in front of the Old Savannah Cotton Exchange building](https://savannahfirsttimer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/IMG_1622_SAV_Cotton-Exchange_1200x800_TNY-1024x683.jpg)
Stop #15: City Hall
There’s no need to hop off at this stop.
City Hall is a pretty building, but if you only have one day in the city you can certainly find better ways to spend your time.
Stop #16: Franklin Square
This is essentially the same stop as stop #10.
If you were smart and took my advice about not purchasing souvenirs to lug around earlier, now is the time to revisit City Market to purchase lots of sweet treats from Byrd Cookie Co. and Savannah Candy Kitchen.
After you’ve made your purchases, you can hop back on the trolley to head back to the Savannah Visitor Center and place your purchases in your car, OR you can walk a few blocks north to River Street to have dinner at Vic’s.
Just make note that if you plan to stay late, you’ll need to have your car out of the Visitor Center by 6 pm!
🎁 Souvenir Opportunity: Key Lime Coolers, Salted Caramel, and Georgia Peach cookies from Byrd Cookie Co. or pralines from Savannah Candy Kitchen
After the Trolley Tour: Dinner Options
I run a private Facebook group for people who are planning trips to Savannah, and Vic’s on the River is consistently one of the most popular restaurants mentioned in the group.
Sometimes it even gets higher marks than The Olde Pink House! Make note that it’s best to make reservations at least few days in advance.
If you still have energy to explore after dinner, you might want to stroll down to the Plant Riverside District . It’s the new development on the far west end of River Street.
Just look towards the Talmadge Bridge and you can’t miss it…you’ll see two giant smokestacks reaching towards the sky.
Whew, that was a pretty jam-packed itinerary, wasn’t it?
Hopefully you feel like you were able to fit a lot in and get a good overview of the city!

11 Comments on Old Savannah Trolley Tours 1-Day Itinerary
I’ve never been to Savannah, but your beautiful photos make me want to plan a trip there ASAP!
Awww, thank you! I love photography, and it’s a very photogenic city.
I love Savannah, and I love your guides. I am actually considering going back soon, and your site is AMAZING, gives me ideas and inspirations on how to visit it even better and more efficiently. Thank you!
That’s awesome. Happy to help! Fall is a great time to visit. We’re just about to head into peak hurricane season at the moment (late Aug to the end of September/early October).
I didn’t know much about Savannah, but this post made me put it on my to-visit list. Really love how the buildings look!
I want to come to Savannah on December 22 and stay through December 29. Are the stores open for Christmas Eve shopping? And the restaurants open for dining? Also I would assume everyone closes on Christmas Day which is Saturday this year, but by Monday, will stores and restaurants be open back up? Are the trolly and carriages available during these days?
Hi Vickie. This year might be a little different than most, due to the pandemic. We’ll have to see how things play out. But in a normal year, shops would be open on Christmas eve, and many restaurants would be open for dining. A select few restaurants are also open on Christmas day, but those are usually the ones attached to hotels. Try places like the 17Hundred90 Inn & Restaurant or some of the restaurants at the JW Marriott Plant Riverside. By that Monday, many businesses will reopen…unless pandemic restrictions tighten. The trolleys and the DOT shuttles run the majority of the year, but they might close down on Christmas day. It’s probably best to call them to verify. Even if they aren’t running, if you’re able to walk without too much trouble (I realize not everyone has those capabilities), the Historic District is very walkable and beautiful during the holiday season. You could spend Christmas day exploring places like Jones Street, Taylor Street, Charlton Street and some of the more residential areas, which look beautiful. Here’s a post about Christmas in Savannah: https://savannahfirsttimer.com/christmas-in-savannah/
Thank you for writing this post. I used it on Thursday for my one day in Savannah and it was so helpful. So glad I found it!
Awesome! I’m glad it was helpful 🙂
Erin, You are an extraordinary wealth of info and your pictures are great. We are going to Savannah in a few weeks and I am using your suggestions as the basis of our itinerary. What is your Facebook group? Many thanks!
Hi Mo! I’m glad the site has been helpful. You should be able to find the group by searching Savannah First-Timer on Facebook (there’s a FB page and a group).

Pretty fantastic. The tour was more ghostly than jump-scare. The talking was good. I feel the price matches the expectation. Paulie and Ro were fun.

absolutely loves this tour. Big E was an absolute wealth of knowledge and information. Very entertaining! I wish we had started earlier in the day and rode the entire day with him! Cyndi was also knowledgeable in the area and was very pleasant. Lots of info about the plants and river front from her! 10/10 all the way around!!!

I bought the tickets through Orbitz. It was a good price for two people. Get there early to have a parking spot. The tour starts at 9 am and it goes through historic Savannah neighborhoods. The best thing to get is the hop-and-on pass. There are trolley stops all around the tour and you're able to get off and on. I gave them three stars because of my experiences. It started when I checked in. No one was on the front counter. She was doing multiple people's jobs. I've waited like 10 minutes. I showed my Orbitz confirmation on my phone. She asked me if I had a printout. So, I didn't and she didn't print it out. She explained that I have to have a sticker to get on and off the trolley (this will evolve into an experience later). I didn't know there was a way to get around and re-rise the trolley when I booked my tickets on Orbitz. Unfortunately, I didn't get those tickets :/ Moreover, we sat inside the trolley and sat on the front row with the tour narrator just one foot in front of us. When he was talking he projected saliva on us. It was disgusting! Also, during the tour, she stopped talking and looked at young females walking on the sidewalk. It was not necessary to do that in front of people while narrating historical facts. It was very creepy and perverted. During the ride, I noticed we stopped at the trolley stop tourists coming on to ride the trolley without the Old Savannah Tour. The driver didn't say anything to them and asked them for their tickets. At the end of the tour at the Savannah Welcome Center. It is the last stop to take a break. Therefore, we had to take another trolley back to the Old Savannah Tour Center. When we hopped inside the trolley the driver asked if we had tickets. He didn't ask the other non-persons of color who were getting inside the trolley. That irritated me! I felt singled out. Overall, I liked the facts about the historical park squares and houses during the trolley tour. However, I wouldn't recommend this for older adults with mobility difficulties. My mom didn't enjoy it because it was a lot of walking and River Street had an even sidewalk.

There are three trolley tour companies in Savannah, but Old Savannah Tours is locally owned (not a franchise) for 40 years, and they provided a great experience! My driver and guide was Robbin. She told stories and gave historic information along the 15 stops. There were also actors that came on board at a couple of stops to provide historic information about the characters they were portraying from a 1st person perspective. You can choose the Overview tour that lasts about 90 minutes or you can buy the hop-on/hop-off option to explore a bit at the stops you prefer and get on the next available trolley. They run around every 15-20 minutes, so if the next trolley you want is full, another shouldn't be that far behind.

I've been to Savannah many times and even lived there for over a year when I attended Armstrong Atlantic State University, now Georgia Southern University. However, I've never taken a trolley tour until this past September when we visited for a few days. We had several hours to kill on a Thursday and my history loving husband suggested we take a trolley tour and I thought why not? It would be a great way to see and learn more about the oldest city in Georgia! We chose the hop on-hop off tour, which is 90 minutes long. The tour begins each day at 9:00am and the last tour leaves at either 4:30pm or 5:00pm depending on the season. This tour goes through 14 stops and a trolley comes by every 15 minutes or so. We hopped off pretty early on to explore one of the squares by foot and ended up walking around, getting coffee, and shopping for over an hour. We hopped back on and stayed for several more stops, but had to hop off once we got closer to our hotel. We appreciate that you have the freedom to "customize" your tour experience. The tour was very informative and enjoyable! We loved the addition of historical characters who hopped on at different stops. The actors did a phenomenal job. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed our tour, they are open air trolley busses. Seating is comfortable enough. The guide we had was fun and energetic throughout as well as knowledgeable about all of our stops. The actors at each stop are a fun encounter with stories and it was entertaining more so for our children. Would recommend again when having guests from out of town to get a tour of a lot the haunted stops around Savannah if they've never been.

Do not use the driver (Arthur) he was very rude and I will never take a tour with this company again. The exact words he said to me and the lady beside me. (Was that this was a tour and others wanted to her his tour and we need to shut up) I and my sister who was in a different sentence then myself we promptly got off and decided to go back to our hotel. He ruined our tour. This happened on 7/27/24 around 2:25pm The problem was me and the lady we having a conversation with one another and not speaking loud at all.

Old Savannah Tours: For the most part the tour provided us with a lot of information about Savannah with all its history. A cool service they provided is that you call them and they'll pick you up - our pick up spot (on Bay Street) was super close to our hotel (Hyatt Regency Savannah) actually it was in front of the Bohemian which was located right next door. Once you're picked up they take you to the Savannah Welcome Center where you'll check in (showing your email receipt or paying for your tour). They'll give you a sticker to place on your shirt to use throughout the day for hopping on and off at the different stops (16 total) Whenever we travel to a city we take hop on hop off tours and run the entire route to see all the stops then we figure out which stops we like and go back to those stops. Overall the Tour was decent it was just that the driver/tour guide spoke to fast and the volume of the speaker was not high enough to hear everything. Also the bus moved very fast through some of the areas so seeing everything that the driver/tour guide was pointing out only allowed us a moment to see what he was talking about. The tour takes you through the many squares with Spanish Moss hanging from the Oak trees- the old south look you always see in pictures/movies very cool. A nice extra is that from time to time the bus would stop and a character actor (dressed in the period of time or subject of the particular area/time) would join us on the bus to tell us stories about the area/city of Savannah. All in all it is a very good way to see all the historical spots, but again we felt slightly rushed. I felt we missed a few things
![old savannah tours parking](https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/O99dpCnH1LIWtkilv68QsQ/348s.jpg)
Great time. Love the hop on hop off you get to see all of Savannah. Certain stops have period characters hop on and provide some history of this great little city. A must for all.

Our tour started out with a bad experience: our tour guide, Dick was grumpy and rude. He snapped at us as we boarded the tour bus. During the tour he was hard to understand, he spoke fast and had ran his sentences together. We got off at an early stop as we weren't getting anything out of the tour. A few other passengers also commented on how it was hard to understand our guide. Our next bus had a different driver/guide and he was great. I didn't catch his name, but made sure to leave him a tip and thanked him for the tour. So I'm conflicted on the tour; with the right driver this can be a fun way to experience historic Savannah. If you get the grumpy guy, expect attitude from the tour guide and hard to understand Narration. My advice is when you board your bus and Dick is driving, wait for the next bus.

Dylan on the Ghost Tour was great! Funny and very personable. Excellent story teller, too! The tour itself was a nice relaxing evening with a stop off at the Telfair. As a local, he was also able to give terrific restaurant recommendations and honest reviews of purported Savannah must see/visit/eat establishments.

'Baseball with a lot of shenanigans'; Savannah Bananas bring unique baseball experience to Harbor Park
![old savannah tours parking](https://x-default-stgec.uplynk.com/ause/slices/749/dbe20997a7104511baed3a1f2e443baf/749050ed2a9a4128ac2aa3641764bb50/poster_7f8fa6adadf54005a6deeb0cb437d707.jpeg)
NORFOLK, Va. (WTKR) — Nearly two hours before the first fans were let into Harbor Park, spectators started lining up around the field on Friday night.
The excitement for the 757 debut of the Savannah Bananas was at a fever pitch.
"It's the greatest show in sports," said Brandon Crosby, a Bananas infielder and former Norfolk State player.
The first night of a three-game stay in Hampton Roads packed more than 12,000 fans into Harbor Park to watch the famed traveling baseball team.
Formed in 2016, the Bananas have become like the Harlem Globetrotters for baseball fans. They've instituted "Banana Ball" to their games, which are different variations to the traditional baseball approach.
Along with different rules, the team engages in dance routines through innings, performs family friendly stunts, and engage with fans throughout the day and game.
"You're going get a little bit of circus," Crosby said. "You're going get a little bit of Gladiator, you're going to get a little Broadway, some movies. A lot of different things."
"It is just truly the most magical place," said Banana entertainment coordinator Brenna Johnson. "That sounds like it's Disney. In my eyes, this is Disney but on so many other levels."
It's a much different way to prepare for the players. The Bananas were in Harbor Park six hours before the game's first pitch to go through rehearsals on dances before going through batting practice.
Many of the players wore different styles of hats, costumes and jersey names. One player known as Stilts is famous for, well, standing on stilts the entire game.
"All these guys are so locked in because they want to do more," Johnson said.
"Definitely a culture shock at first," said Jake Skole, an outfielder for Savannah and a former MLB first round draft pick. "When you get to see the fans, be here in person and watch how you're affecting the fans and kids, it's really a testament to what Banana Ball is."
It's something players like Danny Hosley have embraced. A Vienna, Virginia native, Hosley found his second chance in the sport when he joined the team in 2023.
"Getting thrown in the fire was definitely something," he said. "I had to learn a lot on the fly, a lot of dances and keep up baseball skills along the way. It's been an unbelievable journey to get to travel the country, see all these cities, entertain all these people."
One thing it also allowed him to do was rejoin Crosby, who he was teammates with at Norfolk State for a season.
"Me and Danny were together in 2020, and then our season got canceled because of COVID," Crosby said. "So it's been great to reconcile and actually be on the same team again."
"Now I roommate with him," Hosley said. "He's literally been on the same journey as me. It's just been great to link up with him again in such a special place."
Crosby expects to have 70-80 friends and family join him over the next couple days as he returns to his old stomping grounds.
"My route was kind of different, it wasn't the affiliate ball route," he said. "So to be (at Harbor Park), it's amazing."
The Bananas took the first game of the weekend over their rival Party Animals, which was broadcasted nationally on TruTV.
Norfolk is the 25th stop on a 29-city world tour for Savannah, a summer filled with nights just like Friday at Harbor Park.
"There's just something about the Savannah Bananas that makes you want to be a part of it," Johnson said.
"I would say it's bigger than baseball," Crosby said. "I think it's bringing people back to the game."

Sports | harbor park braces for savannah bananas and 3 consecutive sold-out games.
![old savannah tours parking old savannah tours parking](https://www.dailypress.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/AP22166823130279.jpg?w=525)
This won’t be normal.
When the Savannah Bananas bring their unique brand of baseball entertainment to the shores of the Elizabeth River, those attending can expect a full house.
Three games, Friday through Sunday, pitting the Bananas against a team called the Party Animals have been sold out for months.
Gregory, whose game-day staff will handle concessions and usher fans through the ballpark in all-hands-on-deck fashion, is bracing for the storm.
“We haven’t had three sellouts back-to-back in quite some time, I assume,” Gregory said. “Maybe back when the ballpark first opened. So yeah, we’ll be staffed up.”
“Banana Ball,” which has become a national phenomenon, features quirky scoring rules, frequent on-field dancing and a brisk pace of play.
Bunting isn’t allowed, batters can’t step out of the box, and foul balls caught by fans are outs. The nine-inning games are governed by a two-hour time limit.
“Banana Ball strips away the often criticized lulls and lengthy pauses typical of traditional baseball, delivering a high-octane and entertainment-packed game that keeps both players and fans on their toes,” the team’s website reads.
Since the Bananas began in 2015, they have sold out every home game. Their subsequent tours of the country have been wildly popular.
It’s why Gregory encourages fans to be prepared.
“This isn’t like driving up to a Tuesday game at Harbor Park,” Gregory said. “It’s going to take some thought, effort and planning.”
The Tide light rail and the Elizabeth River Ferry will be free to fans with tickets — as they are when the Tides play at home.
With more than 12,000 people expected each night, parking will be at a premium. Gregory suggested that fans park at either MacArthur Center Mall or Dominion Tower, both of which are prepared for the onslaught.
The Tides often sell out for a Saturday night fireworks show in the summer, but some season-ticket holders choose to avoid those busy nights. That won’t be the case this weekend, when what Gregory called the “no-show factor” won’t be a factor at all.
Of local interest is one Bananas player. Danny Hosley, a utilityman, was a two-way star for Norfolk State who was the 2021 MEAC Player of the Year.
Adding to the mayhem downtown will be this weekend’s Norfolk Waterfront Jazz Festival, which will bring thousands to the area.
Friday night’s Bananas game will be broadcast nationally on truTV, so the Tides plan to put their best foot forward.
“It’s a great situation,” Gregory said. “It’s a great situation for the city, for the Tides, for downtown businesses.
“It’s a chance for us to show Harbor Park off to the nation.”

A Satisfying View of Savannah from Land and Sea (or River)
Living on the coast certainly has its advantages and it would be downright silly of us not to – well – take advantage of it. You could call this the ‘surf and turf’ tour option (which is likely what will be on your dinner plate tonight). But until then, we highly suggest you spend your afternoon on the Savannah River Queen paddleboat for an utterly relaxing cruise down Savannah’s waterway paired with an All-Day Loop (Hop On – Hop Off) Trolley tour.
You choose which comes first, the boat or the trolley, ‘cause sugah’, we aim to please and either way you can’t go wrong!

I'm a travel planner. These 5 US destinations are my top recommendations right now.
- I'm a travel planner , and there are so many US destinations my clients are loving right now.
- Milkwakee is one of my favorite spots in the Midwest , and Newport is a great East Coast trip.
- Out West, there's the stunning Sedona, and Savannah is an underrated Southern town .
![old savannah tours parking Insider Today](https://www.businessinsider.com/public/assets/BI/US/logos/newsletters/insider-today-logo.png)
As a travel planner, I book my fair share of national-park stays and Disney vacations , but my clients have also been loving some less advertised US destinations.
If you're looking for a more under-the-radar spot for a family trip or romantic getaway, the States has plenty of low-key cities to choose from.
Here are some of my favorites right now.
Milwaukee is a Midwest gem.
The Wisconsin city is located on Lake Michigan's western shore , less than two hours from Chicago.
For outdoorsy types, you can hit up Bradford Beach or hike and bike at Lakeshore State Park. If you like beer, tour some local breweries — Urban Harvest, Miller Brewing Company, Milwaukee Brewing Co. — and taste their offerings.
Baseball fans can even spend a day tailgating and catch a Brewers game at American Family Field .
Milwaukee has an expansive art museum and a spectacular zoo. The greenhouses at Mitchell Park Domes also showcase beautiful flowers and plants.
Head west to experience the glorious Sedona.
Located about two hours from Phoenix, Sedona is a nature-lover's paradise.
The area's gorgeous red-colored rocks offer countless hiking opportunities , including braving Bell Rock butte. For more active adventures, there are great places to kayak and mountain bike, or you can head to one of the supernatural vortexes (energy hot spots) Sedona is known for.
The natural water slide at Slide Rock State Park is a unique Arizona attraction, and Oak Creek is a gorgeous place to swim . If you're really brave, you can book a Pink Jeep Tour to see more of the nearby jaw-dropping sights while basically hanging off the cliffs.
The Chapel of the Holy Cross is always at the top of my list, followed by an Old West chuckwagon dinner at Blazin' M Ranch. Downtown Sedona also has a plethora of retail and restaurant options, including the famous Cowboy Club.
San Juan is a tropical destination that doesn't require a passport.
San Juan is a great mix of beach fun and historical sightseeing. Plus, since Puerto Rico is a US territory, US citizens don't need a passport to visit.
Visiting Old San Juan feels like taking a trip back in time. I suggest booking a tour that takes you to Capilla del Cristo, Santa María Magdalena de Pazzis Cemetery, and the San Juan Cathedral.
Stay at one of the premier beach spots, like Hilton's El Conquistador Resort. And if you're looking for a thrill, book a snorkeling excursion at Icacos Island, hike through rainforests to search for waterfalls, or find a spot to go ziplining.
My favorite experience, which cannot be missed, is kayaking to Laguna Grande at night to see spectacular bioluminescent water.
Savannah has endless opportunities for fun, food, and relaxation.
The best time to visit Savannah, Georgia , is in the spring or fall when the weather is milder.
Take some time to stroll the shops of River Street or hop on one of the city's famous ghost tours — Savannah is considered one of the most haunted cities in America . One of my favorite ways to see the city is by riverboat cruise, and if you have time, take a day trip to the lovely Tybee Island.
History and architecture buffs should also explore the Olde Pink House, Forsyth Park, and the gorgeous homes on Jones Street.
Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room, which serves up southern delicacies, is the best place to grab lunch. Then, you can stroll the riverfront to grab a treat or drink.
Newport is an East Coast delight.
Newport, Rhode Island , is a mix of natural beauty, history, and stunning architecture — b e sure to visit some of the town's historic mansions.
I highly recommend renting a car and driving down the gorgeous Ocean Drive coastal road. But the city also offers Trolley Tours if you want to stick to the inland sights.
You can also take in the views from the 3.5-mile Newport Cliff Walk or book a thrilling rail-bike tour.
The town has many great restaurants, including The Mooring and Bar 'Cino. But if you can't choose, just book a food tour. There are also a number of nearby wineries and breweries, including Newport Vineyard and Greenvale, to check out.
