The city of Savannah, Georgia has much to offer any investor, especially those that wish to take a step back in time. Today's Savannah has much to offer including a range of beautiful landscapes and of course amazing waterways. Yet, the history of the region is so rich with culture and heritage that any tourist needs to experience that as well.

A good place to start is with the Deluxe Land and Sea Savannah Package. In this package, you will have the ability to enjoy Savannah at its best. You will enjoy a trolley tour and a riverboat cruises. Then, enjoy admission to the Davenport House. When you take this package tour, you'll enjoy many of Savannah's most amazing locations including some of those listed here.

Savannah Historic District

Savannah's Historic District is the oldest part of the city. Throughout it, large, old mansions and cobblestone streets are prime locations for a stroll. You will find beautiful gardens to enjoy. The district includes 20 "squares" where more than 1800 buildings are found.  Visit the Telfair Mansion for an art tour. Visit the Riverfront Esplanade as well. There, you will find amazing restaurants, galleries as well as shops and museums to explore. Some of the museums here are found in restored cotton warehouses.

Savannah Victoria District

Another place to stop and enjoy Savannah is the Victoria District. Here you will find homes that were built in the traditional Queen Anne Victorian style that date back to 1870 and 1910. It is also an ideal place to see poets and artists working, especially in the Starland Design District. Historic Forsyth Park is located here, which welcomes a walk or a game of ball. 

River Street And City Market

Depending on when you visit, River Street may have an enjoyable event happening.  Many large company sponsored events happen here. Just south of River Street you will find City Market. This amazing area is filled with unique specialty shops, art studios and beautiful architecture. It is the ideal place to find a unique antique.

The Davenport House

To truly experience the history that Savannah offers, visit Davenport House. A tour throughout it will take you back in time to the Southern way of life. This home features antebellum architecture and fine details that have been preserved and restored through time. Elements like the marble mantels and plaster stand out in particular but the mater woodwork is amazing. The home is a showcase of what traditional life in Savannah was just a century ago. You can tour the home alone or with a tour guide who will explain each feature to you.

The Deluxe Land and Sea Savannah Package is a great way to see many of these important elements of Savannah. Even if you stroll along River Street on your own, take in the beautiful surroundings. Both by water and by foot, the city's inspiring historic importance is everywhere. This experience is perfect for those who want to learn about Southern culture or those that want a life size history lesson.

Deluxe Land and Sea Savannah Package
Highly recommend the tours and the blue trolley company. They took us every where and insured that we got to church on time. Extremely polite and accomodating. Forget the River cruise unless you like looking at industrial sites. We thought we would seem something historical rather than iron scrape. I reduce our rating because of the cruise. .

The tour guide was a delight and also the shuttle service and operator was wonderful, met my needs since I'm somewhat handcapped. Would also recommed the tour package as well.
