It’s a great place but define a few days? 2-3 max day trip because there’s not much to do. Unless you like ghosts?

Dive bar that takes credit for inventing the chicken finger.

Went many years ago but I remember the Olde Pink House being a fancy and nice place we had dinner at.

Savannah is a great destination for people who like architecture, food and weirdness - in no particular order of preference.

Go on St Patricks Day.

2 full days not counting travel. Just going to check it out as we’ve never been. Likely will just do some walking around, eating and drinking

Savannah is great. On one visit we stayed in an old mansion (Kehoe House) that was originally a funeral parlor. It was later a brothel owned by Joe Namath.

If you like dive bars go check out Abe's on Lincoln, place is hilarious

Miss Wilkes for lunch. You’re welcome!

Organized walking tour of city: Interesting history, nice parks, food/drink recommendations, Forrest Gump

 

[MrsScrew_rivals32693]

Get a hop on/hop off pass for the bus. All of them are tour busses

Leopolds for ice cream

Walk along the riverwalk

Try to get to all 22 parks & find all the fountains

Google : 48 hours (or whatever # of hours) in Savannah & see what pops up

Eat at Husk

We really enjoyed eating/drinking here: https://www.treylorpark.com/treylor-park-hitch-menu/

I second the Olde Pink House. Food is fantastic.

 

[newell138]

sounds like Pink house is a must lol

If you can get reservations.

Hit any of the rooftop bars along River St.

It's a beautiful city to walk around in, especially in the historic district (or take a horse drawn carriage if you don't feel like walking), which is unsurpassed for preservation of examples of southern architecture from before the Civil War (since the city was spared by Union troops). The waterfront area is nice, too. And you can visit my cousin while you're there, lol.

Vic’s on the river is a good spot. They have a civil war map on the plaster wall that was recovered during renovation of the restaurant. The building was used as a union headquarters and the map outlines Sherman’s march to the sea. Very cool!
