Planning a guys' trip in Savannah
Spanish-moss squares, riverfront cobblestones, southern food, ghost-story tours after dark. For a group, weigh a block of hotel rooms against one whole-home rental: the house is usually better value per person and keeps everyone together, while a hotel is simplest for a short stay. Expedia shows both for Savannah.
Savannah after dark
Open containers are legal inside the Historic District if the drink is in a plastic cup under sixteen ounces, which sets the tone: people drift between City Market, Congress Street and the Bohemian's rooftop with a to-go cocktail in hand. Bars serve until three. Ghost tours, candlelit and slightly silly, are the other evening industry. River Street after ten belongs to bachelorette parties and cover bands.
What things cost in Savannah
Thirty dollars buys seven days across all three Telfair museums, the best value downtown by some distance. Mrs. Wilkes charges a flat cash price around thirty for lunch. A scoop at Leopold's is a few dollars, a ghost tour usually thirty to forty, and metered street parking a couple of dollars an hour. The DOT shuttle and the Savannah Belles Ferry cost nothing at all.
What's actually worth your time in Savannah
Savannah's draw is the plan itself: Oglethorpe's grid of squares, twenty-two of the original twenty-four still shaded by live oaks, and walking Bull Street through Chippewa, Madison and Monterey costs nothing. Forsyth Park's 1858 fountain and the sculpted plots of Bonaventure Cemetery repay the trip out. River Street is a candy-and-souvenir gauntlet on ballast stone; go once at dusk, then leave. Wormsloe sells an avenue of oaks and little else.
What to eat in Savannah
Shrimp and grits, low country boil and crab stew are the register here. Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room serves fried chicken family-style at communal tables, weekday lunch only, cash only, with a queue down Jones Street. Mashama Bailey cooks at The Grey inside a restored Greyhound bus terminal on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. Leopold's has scooped ice cream since 1919; Byrd's sells cookies by the tin.
Savannah with kids, realistically
The free DOT shuttle loops the Historic District and the Savannah Belles Ferry crosses to Hutchinson Island at no charge, which reads to a six-year-old as a boat ride. Tybee Island adds a marine science center and a lighthouse with 178 steps to the top. Oatland Island keeps wolves and alligators on a boardwalk trail. River Street's ballast cobbles will defeat any stroller you own.

Common questions
What's the best stay for a guys' trip?
A whole-home rental with space to spread out — a games room, a pool, a big TV — keeps the group together and beats a row of hotel rooms on price per person. Choose a central location near the courses, stadium or bars you’re there for.
How much space do we need?
Budget two guests per bedroom plus enough bathrooms; a group of 6 fits a 3-bedroom home. Check the listing’s guest cap and bed setup.
How far ahead should we book?
Three months for big event or peak weekends — homes near stadiums and golf book early. Weeknights are easier and cheaper.
