About this tour
Stroll Savannah’s Historic District, where every leafy square has a story, at your own pace and with no tour group crowds!
Why did General Sherman spare this city, and why do so many locals swear it’s haunted? Walk from Wright Square to Forsyth Park and find out, passing the birthplace of the Girl Scouts’ founder, the house Sherman made his headquarters and the mansion at the heart of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
No set start times and no rushing past the places you love. Start whenever you like, stop for coffee or photos, and pick up where you left off. GPS plays each story as you arrive, so you look up at the oaks, not down at a map, all for a fraction of the price of a group tour.
Highlights:
- See the spot in Chippewa Square where Forrest Gump sat with his box of chocolates.
- Pass the Mercer Williams House and Sherman’s HQ at Green-Meldrim House.
- Start any time and go at your own pace, with GPS audio that works offline.
