The great thing about Savannah is that the downtown area is a virtual walking tour through history and culture. Taking any of the tours might make for a pleasant overview of the city and then striking out on your own to explore a little deeper is a great idea. Because Savannah itself is not a large place, there aren't necessarily any places where tourists won't be found. That's OK. It's worth seeing! The historic Bonaventure Cemetery, the museums, the squares...you're going to have a great time.

And then, of course, there's Molly MacPherson's Scottish Pub on Congress Street downtown.

About 30 miles south is Liberty County, where I live. It's home to Fort Morris, a Revolutionary War fort, and the Dorchester Academy, which was started as a school for freed slaves and from which Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. did some of the planning for the Birmingham march. Liberty County was also home to one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, Button Gwinnett.

And you're only 8 miles south of Molly MacPherson's Scottish Pub in Richmond Hill.

Depending on the kinds of things you like to see and do, I'm sure you're going to enjoy Savannah.
