MUST-SEE LIST
  • Tour Savannah's squares

  • Watch the sunrise at Tybee Island

  • Enjoy a meal at Chef Joe Randall's Cooking School

  • Visit the First African Baptist Church
  • When people find out that I'm a travel writer, they always ask, "Where's your favorite place?" I often wax poetic about recent trips and new discoveries, but, invariably, all roads lead to Savannah.

    I feel more at home in Savannah than anyplace I've ever visited. While the city's popularity has grown in recent years, it still maintains its small-town personality. What's more, few places rival the historic district's physical beauty.

    I've spent almost a decade exploring this city, and, each time I visit, I discover something new. Come along as I share some of my favorites, both the new kids on the block and the tried-and-true. I hope you'll end up loving Savannah as much as I do.
