SAVANNAH & TYBEE ISLAND, GEORGIA
IN SAVANNAH, many companies offer a slew of tours, ranging from serious architectural studies to touristy ghost-story excursions—and lots in between. The 90-minute Old Town Trolley Savannah is one way to get an introduction, but locals say the trolleys are best for getting the lay of the land and jumping on and off at will. Guides at Architectural Tours of Savannah [architectural savannah.com] explain the town plan, developed by James Oglethorpe in 1733, and delve into the architectural history and styles of Savannah.
