Learn more about Savannah's part in the Revolutionary War and the Siege of Savannah by taking a tour of the Hostess City. Walking tours are a great way to learn about the history of Savannah in a smaller, more intimate setting. However, if you don't feel like walking, catch one of Savannah's fine trolley tours. And of course, don't forget Savannah's haunted ghost tours to learn of revolutionary era duels and the ghosts that followed!

Finally, enjoy a patriotic salute from one of Savannah's orchestras, watch canons blow at one of the local forts to celebrate our nation's independence, and finish out the weekend with fireworks on the river, beach, or on a cruise!
