Savannah is a city steeped in a rich history and
unmistakable charm. However, an undercurrent
of innovation has simultaneously existed since its
founding. This pairing of the new and the old creates

down. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that the
Hostess City is home to a wild and colorful array of

�������� ������ �������������������������� ������ ������������ �������� ������������ ������ ��������������
so take it from a couple of locals - these are the spots
you have to check out before you leave!
Trying to get your bearings in a new place is tough,
and near impossible on an empty stomach. That’s
why there’s no better place to start than B. Matthews
Eatery. Located in the oldest tavern in the Historic
District, this one-of-a-kind bistro serves a variety of
traditional and updated American-style dishes using
locally sourced, high quality ingredients. Order the
shrimp & grits for true taste of the South!
After a big breakfast, it’s time to get some steps
in. Luckily, Savannah is one of the most pedestrian
friendly cities with its gorgeous squares and brick
sidewalks throughout. Venture all the way to River
Street where many boutiques, studios, restaurants,
and bars call home. You’ll want to stop by Morell
Park, which is home to the beloved statue, The
Waving Girl, and Savannah’s Olympic Flame. Along
the river, you can watch massive container ships roll
into port or hop aboard a riverboat with Savannah
Riverboat Cruises for a unique perspective of the city.
Back on dry land you’ll want to stop into some local
shops, and Red Clover Boutique has you covered for
��������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������
assist with your clothing, accessory, and shoe needs
in a chic atmosphere that doesn’t disappoint. Check
out their sister stores, Arrowleaf and Harper, for even
more fantastic options. If you’re in search of unique
gifts, head to Capital Bee Co. Honey Boutique, for
a honey tasting bar, local art, home decor, treats,
candles and more!
In a city dating back to 1733, you can’t go wrong
with any historic site, but The Andrew Low House,
Davenport House and Mercer Williams House are
all great places to start! The Juliette Low House is a
����������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������������
building and the childhood home of the Girl Scout
founder. Visit the Savannah History Museum, Ships of
the Sea Maritime Museum, or Ralph Mark Gilbert Civil
Rights Museum for a more in-depth look at the history
of the area.
Finally, head to the Plant Riverside District for an
entertainment experience brand-new to Savannah.
With live music, eccentric offerings, and high end
restaurants, there’s bound to be something for
everyone. End the night with skyline views from
Electric Moon Skytop Lounge or Myrtle & Rose Rooftop
Garden. Both offer signature cocktails and stunning
cityscape views for the perfect nightcap.
