Last week, Anthony D’Argenzio of New York City creative company Zio & Sons hosted a picture-perfect photo tour of Savannah on Condé Nast Traveler’s Instagram feed and website. Once you’ve recovered from swooning over these beautiful shots of Savannah’s iconic Historic District, here’s how you can plan a weekend getaway to see each of the places covered in the photos.
The historic Ballastone Inn is a cozy, upscale hideaway right in the middle of downtown Savannah. Ornate guest rooms await couples on romantic getaways or those looking for a plush ode to the early 1800s, which is when the mansion was built.
Take a tour of the city’s house museums to see how Savannahians in years past lived and decorated their homes. From the Owens-Thomas House to the Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace, the beautifully appointed rooms will make you want to move in and start calling Savannah home! Add some spookiness to your trip by taking a late-night ghost tour of the haunted Sorrel-Weed House (pictured below), which can be toured day and night.
Shop for an antique to take home as a reminder of your trip to Savannah at Alex Raskin Antiques. This multi-story antique shop is home to hundreds of pieces ranging from art to furniture and more.
Dine at Pacci Italian Kitchen + Bar, located inside The Brice, A Kimpton Hotel, for a delicious farm-to-table Italian-with-a-Southern-twist meal you won’t forget. Grab a craft cocktail at the bar and get it in a 16-oz to-go cup before heading out for more exploring.
Take an architectural tour to round out your trip and admire the historic beauty of Savannah’s structures, which have been preserved over hundreds of years. You’ll see a mix of design styles that go all the way back to when Savannah was founded as the first city of Georgia in 1733.
