Tour Tip Tuesday 🚗

Your guide isn't just reciting facts that they memorized from afar; they live here. They eat here, send kids to school here, and go to the grocery store 3 times a week because they keep forgetting something here.

They have opinions about which square hits different at sunset, which coffee shop you'd never find on your own, and which tourist traps aren't worth your time.

Ask them things. Where do locals actually go? What's the best spot nobody talks about? What's the hidden gem two blocks away that doesn't have a line but the food is great EVERY TIME?

And don't stop there. Ask the stuff you think is weird. Where do the people working downtown live? What's day to day life actually like in Savannah? What's it like being a tour guide in one of the most historic cities in the country? We love the personal stuff just as much as the history stuff.

This isn't a lecture — it's a conversation. Think of it less like a tour and more like a local friend showing you around their city. We're the friend who turned every day trip into a history lesson and was already three google deep-dives in before the drive home. 😄

We can't promise we'll give up all of our secret spots. But most of them? Fair game... just kidding, we'll spill all the secrets.

🏆 Cruzer of the Month🏆

This month we're spotlighting Sarah T. — and honestly, where do we even start?

Sarah does it all. Expert historian, lead guide, mentor, content creator, VIP tour host, website updater, and a key part of both our front-of-house and back-of-house operations. She was instrumental in getting some of our newest tours off the ground and she just keeps showing up, every single day, on the streets and behind the scenes.

We're genuinely lucky to have her and we want to make sure she knows it.
Thanks for everything, Sarah. The whole Cruzers crew sees you and we're so glad you're ours. 🖤

This is what Savannah looks like at night from the front seat of a GEM car.

We run nighttime tours every week. The benefit of our tours? You get to choose your content! Choose between history, hauntings, or both.

Small groups, no crowds... and the best way to beat the heat and still learn about the city!

In a city full of monuments, this is one you can't walk past without stopping and reflecting. The African American Monument stands on the Savannah Riverfront as a reminder of what this city was built on -- and who built it.

Slavery was banned in early Georgia, but enslaved people were part of the colony's development from nearly the beginning; clearing land, tending cattle, and laboring on farms.

When Georgia formally legalized slavery in 1750, the enslaved population grew from fewer than 500 people to roughly 18,000 in just 25 years. For nearly 5 decades, Savannah was one of the most active slave trafficking ports in the country.

Dedicated in 2002, sculptor Dorothy Spradley depicted a family standing together, chains at their feet.

The Maya Angelou quote on the base says it plainly:

"We were stolen, sold and bought together from the African continent. We got on the slave ships together. We lay back to belly in the holds of the slave ships in each other's excrement and urine together. Sometimes died together. And our lifeless bodies thrown overboard together. Today we are standing up together. With faith and even some joy."

Some monuments in this city ask you to pause and this is one of them.

We just kinda skip spring here in Savannah, so we're aiming to prepare you for Summer with this week's Tour Tip Tuesday.

You packed your camera., downloaded the map, and wore your cutest outfit.
Then-- reality hits. Savannah in July introduced itself.

Want to make your trip more enjoyable? It's all about what you pack and what you bring along. Skip the purse and find yourself a fashionable sling bag that can fit all the essentials while you take in the beauty of our spanish moss. Here's what we here at Savannah Cruzers think you should pack:

1 -A real water bottle. Not a small one.

That little 12oz bottle from your hotel room is not going to cut it. Bring something you can refill and commit to actually drinking from it. You will not feel thirsty until you are already behind. You can refill at public fountains and most dining establishments.

2 -Sunscreen you will actually reapply.

Putting it on before you leave the hotel is step one. Step two is doing it again two hours later. Bring a small tube or a stick. The SPF 8 tanning oil from 1987 is not a strategy.

3 -A hat with an actual brim.

A baseball cap protects your face. A wide brim protects your face, neck, and the part of your shoulders that will absolutely burn anyway. Savannah's squares are beautiful with ample shade-- but you won't always be under the cover of oaks. Bonus points for living your best southern belle dream in your big, flouncy hat.

4 -Comfortable shoes you have already broken in.

The cobblestones are historic. They are also uneven, and you will be walking on them in 95 degree heat. This is not the day for new sandals or anything that requires you to think about your feet.

5 -Lower expectations for your hair.

This one is free. Savannah in summer has humidity that will make decisions for you. Lean in, embrace it, and redirect that energy toward enjoying one of the most beautiful cities in the country.

Your guide will handle the history, the stories, and the directions. You just have to show up hydrated and ready. We'll take it from there!
