Savannah’s Historical District: A Self-Guided Audio Tour
Stroll along streets lined with southern live oak trees draped in Spanish moss on this self-guided walking tour of beautiful Savannah. You’ll discover how and why the city was established, and learn about the battles that were fought here. You’ll hear stories filled with intrigue and, as Savannah’s southern charm draws you in, you'll hear how this city has grown into the popular destination it is today.
High points along the way include:
• Discovering the history and home of the Gordon family, along with Juliette Gordon Low, the founder of the Girl Scouts • Seeing where Forrest Gump sat with his box of chocolates • Exploring a former battleground • Finding out why Savannah is the most haunted city in the country
This audio tour covers all that, and much more. It can be enjoyed on location or even virtually at home. It begins in Wright Square and ends at Forsyth Park, and there’ll be plenty of opportunities for you to enjoy your surroundings and truly savour Savannah.
