This 90-minute Segway tour pairs covering ground with historical context in Savannah. You start with a safety lesson, then travel through the city with a knowledgeable guide. The small-group tour takes in parks, squares, cemeteries, and landmarks including the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. Along the route, your guide shares stories about monuments, fountains, and homes, giving a perspective on the different periods that shaped Savannah's history.
A Segway tour covers more of Savannah's squares and landmarks in 90 minutes than you could comfortably walk, while keeping a guide's narration and an open-air feel that a bus does not offer. It suits visitors who want that range and are comfortable riding, since the tour opens with a safety lesson before you set out. If you would rather stroll the squares slowly on foot, or you are not keen to ride, a walking tour is the better call. This one keeps to a small group, which helps the guide's stories carry.
Savannah's historic district was laid out around its squares and has kept much of its old fabric, so a route that strings together parks, squares, cemeteries, and landmarks gives a good feel for the different periods that shaped it, told from the saddle as you go.
