The first half of the day stays within Savannah's Historic District, walking the same grid of squares that James Oglethorpe laid out in 1733 — a plan that grew to 24 small, oak-canopied parks spread across the colonial-era street grid, each with its own fountain or monument. Along the way, the route also passes through the district's historic cemeteries, where Savannah's earliest residents, yellow-fever victims, and Revolutionary and Civil War-era figures are buried under the same moss-draped oaks that shade the squares.
From downtown, the tour heads out to Tybee Island to see Georgia's oldest and tallest lighthouse, standing 145 feet high. Oglethorpe himself ordered the first tower built here in 1732; that structure and its 1742 rebuild were both eventually lost, and the lighthouse seen today dates mainly to an 1866 reconstruction that reused the surviving lower 60 feet of an earlier tower and added a large Fresnel lens on top. In between, Confederate troops stationed at nearby Fort Pulaski actually burned the lighthouse in 1862 to keep it from guiding Union ships into the Savannah River — a detail that directly connects the lighthouse to the fort you'll also visit.
Fort Pulaski National Monument itself is one of the more significant Civil War sites on the Georgia coast. Built after the War of 1812 to guard the mouth of the Savannah River, it took 18 years to complete and was finished in 1847 with walls 11 feet thick that engineers of the day considered essentially impenetrable to existing artillery. That assumption collapsed in April 1862, when Union forces that had hauled dozens of mortars and rifled cannon across Tybee Island opened fire on the fort. The new rifled guns — far more accurate and powerful than the smoothbore cannon forts were designed to withstand — breached Pulaski's brick walls in under 36 hours, with the Union side losing only one soldier. The battle is generally credited with proving that rifled artillery had made masonry coastal forts obsolete almost overnight, a turning point in military engineering that's still taught at the fort today.
