Pedal Through History Private Bike Tour

On this 2-hour tour of Savannah's Historic District, we will take the quieter side streets and stop often to take in the views, marvel at and photograph the amazing architectural treasures, and immerse ourselves in a beautiful urban forest. This tour covers an area from the Savannah River to Forsyth Park—the world-renowned Oglethorpe Plan of Savannah that dates back to our founding—with its bike-friendly design of regularly-placed public squares.

Bring your camera for countless photo opportunities, including portraits with your bikes against some awesome backdrops!
