  1. AT#918 - Travel to Savannah, Georgia Chris Christensen 47:23

Hear about travel to Savannah, Georgia, and the vicinity as the Amateur Traveler talks to Yvonne Johnson about her adopted hometown.

Why should you go to Savannah?

Yvonne says, “Savannah is just this perfect mix. There’s beautiful weather if you come at the right time, and there’s great history, and there’s great restaurants, and there’s just so much to do, and I’ve raised my children here, and I have guests all the time, and I just love entertaining here.”

Yvonne suggests a diverse one-week itinerary in Savannah, Georgia that covers history, culture, dining, and outdoor activities. Here’s a summary of her recommendations:

Day 1:

  • Old Town Trolley Tour: Take the trolley for a narrated overview of Savannah, exploring the city’s historic district and landmarks.
  • Savannah History Museum: Located in the Central of Georgia Railway Station, this museum showcases local history and movie memorabilia like Forrest Gump’s park bench.
  • Georgia State Railroad Museum: Visit this working roundhouse and explore the engines, miniature train displays, and a children’s museum.
  • Ships of the Sea Museum: Explore maritime history in this mansion-turned-museum with ship models and antique collections.
  • Dinner at Carey Hilliard’s: Try their famous barbecue and award-winning sweet tea.
