Savannah Georgia Tour | A Walk through a Southern Gem

Join Savannah Georgia tour guide, Chris from Savannah Free Tours, on this 24-min walk through one of America's most charming and beautiful cities, Savannah, Georgia. Discover the 'City of Squares' and the beautiful architecture and cityscapes that make Savannah arguably the best city in the country to stroll through.
Chris will take you from the riverfront through the various city squares, including the one used for the famous bus stop scenes in the classic film Forrest Gump. Savannah Georgia is also a special place for the Girl Scouts of America.
You will be introduced to the characters that inhabited and developed this wonderful place. You will also learn about a duel between two prominent Revolutionary War figures as well as the house occupied by General William Tecumseh Sherman during his "March to the Sea" campaign. And yes, you will see the wonderful oak trees with their hanging ribbons of Spanish moss.

This is such a great overview of the actual history of Savannah instead of some geek showing how much they like their food or breezing by historic sites with only a short quip.

[@FreeToursbyFootHQ]

"Y'all've actually showed up on a perfect day..." You know you're in a good place when your host opens with a double contraction :)

[@MeadeSkeltonMusic]

Reminds me a lot of Richmond

[@SAVANNAHEVENTS]

known Chris, the tour guide for a long while. First of all, Chris is a Savannah born guide to the city. It does make a difference. Secondly I dig the way Chris presents a laid back experience (himself) and yet he is chock full of Savannah history and contemporary places to see, go and...chill. Thirdly, Chris is articulate. Dont forget to tip him!

[@FreeToursbyFootHQ]

I like the way you show a map with your travel path, and also that you are saying things about the city instead of simply walking around without saying anything.

[@jefferee2002]

Love this. Not the BS cute couple who come onto the city to make a buck off their review then move on to the next city as they "live their dream".

[@FreeToursbyFootHQ]

Ha. This made us smile. We are definitely not the cute couple channel.

[@CathyTx2001]

Thanks Chris! I bought you a coffee!

[@debbiewedoe2564]

Best tour ever. I love hearing about local flares. I would love to see a tour of Boston, all the marinas and lobsters. See how the locals from generations ago live today.

Coming here next weekend for the first time with my hubby on his 60th. Damn, that sounds old, but we don't FEEL old. Can't wait to explore all the squares, bars and restaurants. We're Irish so we'd love to be here on Paddy's day. Maybe next year😁

[@davidfoley726]

No mention of Franklin Square’s Chasseurs-Volontaires de Saint -Domingue or The First African Baptist Church?

[@FreeToursbyFootHQ]

In a 20 minute video, there were lots of things Chris had to leave out. We plan to do more videos and hope to include some of the things you mentioned, David. Thanks for the suggestions.

[@walkwithme8601]

It's a beautiful image. Thank you for the virtual tour.

[@rebeccagrawl7653]

flying out to savannah georgia for the first time near the end of january for a week on vacation, will be watching as much stuff as i can, how is the cost of living that way? i work security and looking to relocate, also anything i should expect that time weather wise??

[@FreeToursbyFootHQ]

Hi Meatloaf Perfume. You'll need to reach out to Chris. A link to his website is in the description.

[@zengseng1234]

Makes me wonder if Atlanta would look more like Savannah if it hadn’t been burned down

[@spyderstompers7180]

How do I leave a tip?

[@foxywolf1777]

GA was initially established as an indebted colony 😳 I know I have been in debt for the 59 years I have lived here😂 The best is Bonaventure Cemetery, which actually, is not in Savannah...but Thunderbold , GA....DO NOT miss the ghost tours, or River ST.....Thanks for this🐾🦊🐺

[@101shadeira]

I always thought the cemetery was in savanna 😳

[@johnl5316]

of course, honest Abe did start the civil war. Northerners did not want to fight; they were pushed into it & lured to join the military with $ during a depression. The founders understood that states could leave the union as some New England states had considered doing.

[@gazof-the-north1980]

When is the best time to visit Savannah? I'm guessing the Spring? She could be HOT in July/August time.

[@mikeg4960]

The other history is that most of those squares were used to sale/buy slaves. Like a market place for those transactions

[@chrisrauers2047]

No they weren't mike, there's literally 2 locations in the city where that happened, the cotton exchange and the old city market. happy to clear that up for you

[@MyStrange62]

Dude, Pocahontas was 12 years old and taken against her will. You might want to drop that from your story!!otherwise, great job! 😂

[@chrisrauers2047]

Pocahontas was married to a man by the name of John Rolfe, he's the one credited with bringing tobacco to Virginia, and she visited England with him. She was 12 during the John Smith she saved his life and never taken against her will

[@Seegie16]

That city has no french fries. The food there in general really sucked badly IMO

[@evenmoney]

If you're really into food, these crazy times aren't the best as so many restaurants are chronically short-handed and that affects the quality. New Orleans usually has some of the best tasting food and even there, you'll occasionally get an average meal. Just a few years ago, you'd never get anything close to average because average doesn't cut it in Nola.

[@CathyTx2001]

Thanks!
