After getting past their technical glitches (online booking not being current and telephone to make reservations being out-of-service), we booked our reservation for the Foody Tour of Savannah, one of the tours offered by Savannah Movie Tours. We were picked up at the Visitors Center and boarded a nice, comfortable, clean, climate-controlled bus. Our tour guide, Ron, was excellent. He was very informative, comical, and really knew Savannah. (Afterwards, we discovered that he's the President and CEO of the company!) We stopped at several locations on the tour and sampled a variety of foods. Included in our tour (although each may vary) were Mom & Nikki's (smothered shrimp), Harris Baking Co. (pecan pastries), Polk's Produce (tomato sandwiches and BBQ), Angel's BBQ (duh...BBQ), the Paris Market (frozen hot chocolate...mmmm....), Savannah Bee Company (honey and honeycomb(!) samplings), Wright Square Cafe (chocolates and truffles), and, finally, Paula Dean's Lady & Sons restaurant for a sampling of one item from their buffet. All of the samples were delicious, although I was a bit chocolated out! Along the way, we got a great history of the restaurants, including the city of Savannah. I'd definitely recommend it at the beginning of a visit to Savannah so you know where you'd like to return to during your stay. It's like a city tour and lunch rolled into one.

We aren't' big movie folks, so I wasn't sure how good this tour could be for someone who only has seen "Forrest Gump" which was filmed in Savannah. Turns out that this tour was wonderful. We had Julie as our tour guide and she was very pleasant and non rushed during the tour and gave us excellent information. It was especially helpful to have a TV inside the bus that showed clips of places we stopped at and she explained the filming as well. With two stops along the way at the Savannah Theater and Leopold's Ice cream where we had time to meet the owner and indulge in some of the best ice cream around, we both clearly enjoyed our time on this tour, and I wouldn't hesitate to go again or refer someone to take it. Well worth the money.

My wife and I wanted to do some type of tour in Savannah. Sunday we booked the Movie tour via phone which was easy. They only have one tour on Sunday which we found out when we arrived that wasn't full. It was great because we didn't realize that there were so many movies filmed in Savannah. Gary was a great guide. So much knowledge and very nice. In the month of July, this is the best because it's an enclosed bus with air conditioning. There are televisions in the bus to show the scenes as they were explained. Gary dropped us off at a restaurant that we had wanted to go to once the tour was over. My tip for the tour would be to go into the visitors center and grab a tourist map so that you can mark of places you'd like to go back to with a pen. The city is very easy to walk so you can go back and take photos near some of the famous spots.

We were originally booked for a different tour company. As we stood outside freezing our asses off while the other tour co didn't show, we saw a lot of people getting on the Scary Ghost Tour (one of the Savannah Movie Tours.) Our tour was 30 minutes late, so we opted to join the Scary Ghost Tour. I'm glad we did. I really enjoyed Ron, our tour guide. I thought he was very knowledgable about Savannah history. He's from the area so he had a lot of personal stories to add. It was a very relaxed tour. I liked that aspect of it. We had opportunity to get off the bus twice and look around. Jim Williams' sister who lives in Mercer House even looked out the window and waved at us! All in all they saved our tour experience. One thing I forgot to add but was such a thoughtful touch - when the tour guide dropped us off at our various hotels, he waited until folks were safely inside before driving off. I thought that was really sweet.

Photo of Stacey S.

Gary was a great tour guide. He knew a lot of differ t details about the movies and the city. We really enjoyed the tour. We have taken this tour in many cities and this was one of the best.

Photo of Jim J.

My wife and I booked this tour at the last minute and barely made the reservation cut off. The other group of 4 ended up not showing up so we basically had a private tour with Gary who is very knowledgable both with the history of Savannah and the movies shot here. I highly recommended going on this tour.

My wife and I took 2 tours with this company. The "Square Tour" allowed dogs to ride on the bus so this is what drew us to them in the first place. I believe I spoke to the owner on the phone when booking and she was great. A heavy english accent and have 3 direct decedent corgis from the Queens stock 4 corgis total. Also the "Foody Tour" for food lovers, dogs not allowed on this tour. Julie out guide was great, she was born in Savannah and very knowledgeable about the city and such a nice person. She guided both tours and was a dream to talk and listen to. The square tour is a little pricier than most but the climate controlled bus was very comfortable. Covering the history of all the squares in the downtown area, dedications and statues, within the squares. The foody tour was great but expect to spend a little on this tour as we stopped at a couple of stores for foody's amongst the restaurants, and you just have to purchase more than the samples given. I bought $35.00 worth of chocolate and $30.00 of teas and fine ground spices. Both tours were a lot of fun and highly recommended.

Photo of Kinny M.

As a movie buff I was looking forward to this tour and it did not disappoint! Our tour guide, Ralph, was very knowledgeable about the city as well as the movies filmed here. This was our 5th trip to Savannah and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone whether they love movies or not.

15 Best Savannah Tours

The riverside city of Savannah is known as the birthplace of the State of Georgia and is steeped in local history. From the colonial era and American revolution, right through to the Civil War and America’s prohibition era, Savannah has played a key role in most major areas of American history.

There are many tours throughout the city that help you discover the history, food, and culture – as well as the more haunted attractions.

These tours, designed by expert locals, will help you get to the heart of one of the American South’s most heartfelt cities and the inspiration behind Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.

I’ve lived in Savannah for several years so I’m confident you’re gonna like my list on the best tours in Savannah.

1. Hop-on Hop-off Trolley Tour of Savannah Old Town

Hop-On Hop-Off Savannah

You will also be given discount coupons to restaurants and attractions across the city. I recommend it as an easy way to get around the city, you can jump on and off whenever you want.

2. Historic Downtown Savannah: 60 or 90 Minute Segway Tour

Historic Downtown Savannah By Segway

Segway tours are growing in popularity across the world, allowing you to explore large parts of the city at an easy pace.

An audio guide is provided, giving you a great rundown of the main attractions. Safety equipment and water is also provided free of charge. I suggest to start slow as you can make quite a smack if you fall.

Later adapted into a movie which was filmed in the city, this tour takes you around all the locations featured in both the book and the film. The local tour guide is a fully-licensed expert in the story and will be able to share with you the deep connections between novel and city.

You will also get the chance to check out some of Savannah’s most impressive mansions.

9. Bonaventure Cemetery with Shannon Scott

Bonaventure Cemetery With Shannon Scott

Though seemingly a little morbid, this tour is a fantastic way to learn about the history of Savannah by learning the stories behind the dead people who rest in the Bonaventure Cemetery.

The Victorian Gothic style cemetery was featured in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil and provides a fascinating insight into the aspects of Savannah culture that have captivated audiences from across the world.

The unique art of the city can also be discovered through the various engravings and sculptures across the cemetery. Shannon Scott is an expert in the cemetery and provides an insightful two-hour experience. If you’re not into cemeteries I suggest one of the walking tours instead.

10. Famous and Secret East Side Food Tour

Get a good combination of the most well-known restaurants – as well as the hidden gems across the city – with this food tour across Savannah’s East Side.

Civil War Walking Tour Of Savannah

With the State of Georgia siding with the Confederate South, Savannah played a key role in the American Civil War.

This walking tour takes you around the monuments that remain to this day to commemorate the civil war and some of the important locations from the city’s involvement in the conflict.

The guide is an expert in Civil War history and can talk to you about the different tactics taken by both sides in the war. What I like most is that this unbiased tour will also talk about the modern influences the war still has on the city.

13. American Prohibition Museum

American Prohibition Museum

Alcohol prohibition saw a series of behind-the-scenes speakeasies and illegal distilleries set up across the country during the Roaring ‘20s.

This museum is a testament to the era where alcohol consumption was taken underground and locals got creative in finding new ways to have a good time. Learn about what caused prohibition, as well as how it ended and the impact it had on society.

At the end of the museum, you can visit an authentic speakeasy and purchase a cocktail from the time period.

Savannah, GA Tours

Cockspur Island Lighthouse on a hazy autumn day

Seeing Savannah with a professional guide can be one of the best ways to get to know the city’s unique landscape and history. Savannah’s guides offer an almost overwhelming choice of tours (trolley, ghost and walking history tours are the most popular) but in practice, many of them have more similarities between each other than differences.

A large proportion of guided tours offered in Savannah are intended to provide a basic introduction to the history and layout of the city. This sort of overview tour, whether riding or walking, is particularly appropriate for first-time visitors, before setting off to sight-see on your own.

Others focus on specific aspects of the city’s history, and are more appropriate for returning visitors, or people who have either already taken an overview tour or are especially interested in a particular topic.

See below for more about the different kinds of tour on offer in Savannah:

  • Trolley tours – An easy way to get a quick overview of the whole Historic District
  • Walking tours – Historical tours of downtown Savannah
  • Ghost tours – Ghost stories and other paranormal tales from Savannah’s extensive haunted history
  • Specialty tours – Tours focusing on specific aspects of Savannah’s history and culture, including its cemeteries, African-American history, food and drink culture, architecture, and more
  • Dolphin & nature tours – Exploring the marshes and wild islands of the lowcountry; river tours; dolphin-watching

Trolley Tours In Savannah

This is the most popular tour type in Savannah, with three main trolley companies offering daily tours. They can be distinguished by their different liveries but otherwise offer a broadly similar service: a narrated ride around the Historic District, usually with the opportunity to get on and off the tour at any of a dozen or so stops around the city.

Look out for vouchers and special offers at the Visitors Center, online, and on city maps and guides, as discounts are often available.

A basic narrated tour takes around 90 minutes, with most companies also offering hop-on, hop-off services, usually for an additional fee. You can expect to pay around $25-$30 per adult, with children usually less than half price.

→ More about Savannah’s trolley tours

Historical Walking Tours

There are many different walking tours designed to give an overview of Savannah’s history, with more still focusing on specific aspects of the city’s past.

A walking tour offers much more opportunity to enjoy the city and its details than a trolley or bus tour; the smaller walking tours also provide a more intimate and personal experience. On the other hand, you will cover far less ground than on the trolley, and a walking tour can be much more tiring, especially in the heat of summer.

There are well over a dozen general history tours available, and as many again focusing upon the city’s architecture. The Civil War period is another popular topic, with other tours looking into Savannah’s African-American history, or the book that made the city famous, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.

Most tours last around 90 minutes to two hours, and will cover about a mile or so of ground. Expect to pay in the region of $25 per adult (before tax and gratuity); prices can however range from around $15 to $50. Child tickets are usually somewhat cheaper.

Many walking tour providers also offer a private option, usually at higher cost. Inquire with the individual guide or tour company for details.

Savannah Ghost Tours

Ghost tours are a popular activity in Savannah, which is considered to be one of the most haunted cities in the United States. Walking, trolley and other riding tours are available, with some (including crawls of reputedly haunted pubs and bars) aimed at an adults-only audience.

Most tours are undertaken in the spirit of storytelling: a history of Savannah’s folk tales and ghost stories. A few are intended to provide an introduction to the art of paranormal investigation (or “ghost hunting,” as it is more popularly called), where you will be invited to assist in the search for evidence of ghostly presence.

Other of Savannah’s ghost tours fall somewhere between the two: mostly stories and history, with some “evidence” of spirit activity in the form of photographs, recordings and personal recollections.

Ghost tours are generally a little more expensive than regular walking tours, with the average price being around $30 per person.

→ See details of ghost tours in Savannah → See Savannah’s haunted crawls

Specialty Tours

Food & drink tours.

Several tours exploring Savannah’s culinary and drinking history and culture through guided visits to a selection of the city’s most characteristic restaurants and other food spots are available.

These visit a small selection of the city’s dining or drinking establishments, with food or drink samples usually included in the price. Bar tours focused on the city’s drinking history are also available, along with more straightforward pub and bar crawls.

Food tours usually take around 3 hours, and cost in the $35-$50 per person range. Drink-focused and standard pub crawls are usually shorter, and in the case of the crawls (which do not include drinks), cheaper too.

→ More about Savannah’s food and drink tours

Carriage Tours

Several Savannah companies offer short carriage rides of the Historic District, usually available, as with trolley tours, on a walk-up basis. Most will include some element of historical narration.

→ See details of carriage tours in Savannah

Bike & Segway Tours

An alternative way to explore Savannah, with a range of tours – some more historically-focused, others more fun-focused – by electric or pedal bike, multi-person bike or Segway.

→ See details of bike and Segway tours

Helicopter Tours

For a more unique perspective on Savannah and the lowcountry, try one of the tours by helicopter offered by local aerial tour companies, with some trips based out of Savannah itself and others out of nearby Hilton Head, SC.

Shorter, more budget-friendly tours offer views of Savannah’s riverfront and downtown; longer tours can also take you out over the marshes and barrier islands between the city and the ocean.

→ See details of helicopter tours

Black History

Several of Savannah’s tour guides focus exclusively on African-American history, including the history of slavery in Savannah, the lives of the city’s Black residents, and the Civil Rights movement, along with other aspects of African-American culture in Savannah. Both walking and bus tours are available.

A few tours exploring Savannah’s Black heritage are also available from other guides, usually focusing on slavery in the context of the Civil War period.

→ See details of African-American history tours.

Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil & Savannah In The Movies

John Berendt’s Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is the book that made Savannah famous, followed a few years later by the movie based upon it.

“The Book,” as it is locally known, brought Savannah’s eccentric characters and particularly, the murder allegations aimed at wealthy local preservationist Jim Williams, under the national spotlight.

Besides reinvigorating the city’s tourist industry, Midnight has spawned several tours (both walking and riding) exploring the locations in Savannah featured in the book and its movie, stories of the (real-life) people it mentions, filming locations, and more.

Walking tours focus on the in-town sites and stories from the book and movie; if you also want to go out to Bonaventure Cemetery, take a riding tour instead. General tours of Bonaventure are also available if you would prefer a more in-depth look at its history and highlights.

Savannah has featured in dozens of movies and television series over the years. A few overview tours of Savannah’s history as a filming location are available, either walking or riding.

→ See details of Savannah’s Midnight and movie tours

Cemetery Tours

Savannah’s beautiful 19th-century Bonaventure Cemetery is one of its highlights. Atmospheric and haunting, with its moss-hung oaks and hundreds of monuments, funerary sculptures and mausoleums, the cemetery is rich in history and a restful and memorable place to visit.

Various tours of Bonaventure are available. Walking tours allow a more sedate and intimate experience, whilst minibus (and even Segway) tours allow you to cover more ground. Some, but not all, tours include round-trip transportation to the cemetery, an important consideration if you don’t have car in Savannah, as Bonaventure is a few miles out of the city.

→ Details of Bonaventure tours.

Two of Savannah’s other historic cemeteries, Laurel Grove and Colonial Park, can also be seen by guided tour. Colonial Park is the city’s oldest burial ground, laid out in the 18th century and home to many important historic figures. Many of Savannah’s general history (and ghost) tours discuss Colonial Park, but occasional tours focus on it more exclusively.

→ See Colonial Park Cemetery tours.

Laurel Grove served as a city-owned counterpart to (originally private) Bonaventure, divided into separate White and Black areas. Occasional guided tours of Laurel Grove Cemetery are available. You can, of course, make a self-guided visit on your own.

Please note that the city does not allow ghost tours to be conducted on cemetery property; all cemetery tours (Bonaventure, Colonial Park and Laurel Grove) are history only. Several ghost tour companies tell outside-the-gate stories about Colonial Park Cemetery, but none go inside.

River, Dolphin & Eco Tours Near Savannah

Savannah is situated in the heart of the lowcountry, and its nearby nature spots have as much to offer as the city itself.

A fun and easy way to see the creeks and marshes of the Georgia coast is to take a kayak (or in some cases, canoe or paddleboat) tour. Most excursions are not too strenuous and are suitable for complete beginners, but if this doesn’t sound like your thing, there are also dozens of boat tours, both public scheduled tours and private charters, to choose from.

Boat excursions to see the dolphins that populate the area around the mouth of the Savannah River are especially popular. Public scheduled tours are most convenient and usually cheapest.

Some operate directly out of Savannah (usually from River Street). Others begin from the nearby seaside community of Tybee Island, around 18 miles from the city (the tours that go straight out of Tybee are usually cheaper than those out of Savannah).

Other boat excursions visit the tidal marshes and pristine barrier islands of the upper Georgia coast, with shorter trips available to Little Tybee Island, just south of Tybee, and longer tours to Wassaw or Ossabaw Islands.

Zendaya’s Met Gala 2024 Dress “Isn’t Even Made”

savannah movie tours

By Kase Wickman

Image may contain Fashion Child Person Adult Wedding Accessories Bag and Handbag

There’s last-minute, and then there’s “days before the Met Gala 2024, which you happen to be co-chairing, and your dress hasn’t even been made yet.” Zendaya , apparently, falls into that incredibly specific second category.

In an interview with the New York Times published Thursday , self-proclaimed “image architect” and “most unretired retired person” Law Roach said that the 27-year-old’s dress “isn’t even made.”

“They won’t fit until Saturday,” he continued.

It’s a nail-bitingly tight timeline for the biggest fashion event of the year—this year’s dress code is “The Garden of Time” to salute the “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” exhibit Costume Institute opening—but to be fair, Zendaya and Roach have been busy .

“We’ve been on two press tours— Dune 2 and Challengers —and doing two Vogue covers ,” Roach said. Indeed, the press tours for both films also served as tours de force of thematically-aligned fashion, with Zendaya playing with the former’s sci-fi ideas and sporting athletic-inspired tenniscore looks for the latter via her red carpet ensembles.

Roach, who announced his retirement from styling in March 2023 , said he’s “been saying no to a lot of unhappy people. Except Zendaya. I can’t say no to her.” He said that he and the actor are “fashion soulmates” who collaborate frequently.

“I write the script, and she does the rewrites,” he said of their partnership.

This year, Zendaya is a co-chair of the Met Gala alongside Chris Hemsworth, Bad Bunny, and Jennifer Lopez . The event takes place Monday, May 6 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

Be sure to follow along with Vanity Fair ’s live coverage of the 2024 Met Gala as fashion’s biggest night approaches.
