Do I Need a Rental Car in Savannah?

Let’s face it - rental cars are a hassle. Do you really need a rental car for your Savannah vacation? The short answer is - no! Breathe a sigh of relief, relax your shoulders, and check out these unique and fun ways to explore Savannah’s historic district!

Follow Your Own Two Feet

What many people don’t realize is that Savannah’s historic district is only two square miles! Not only can you get your steps in, but you can explore the city at your own pace! While walking may not sound as glamorous, as locals, it’s our favorite way to get around the city. There’s just something so romantic about strolling hand-in-hand with your lover under the reaching arms of Savannah’s live oaks. (hello, photo-op!)

Pedicabs

Savannah’s pedicabs are one of the most unique ways to explore the city! They work just like taxis, but with extra perks! Each pedicab driver is trained and knowledgeable on Savannah’s culture and history. They are more than happy to stop for pictures and answer all of your questions- you can even hire them for the whole day as your personal chauffeur! Grab your to-go margs and get ready to feel the wind in your hair as you ride through the city in style!

Bus System

Savannah’s bus system is a trusty way to get around Savannah- especially if you need to go out of the city for groceries or, Heaven forbid, a doctor. The tickets are cheap and they’ll take you anywhere in Greater Savannah, plus the seats are both large and comfy! The bus drivers are so friendly and personable, and they are a treasure trove of tips and hacks for Savannah travelers!

Bike Rentals

There are droves of bike rental companies in Savannah. They rent out both sporty bikes for athletic adventurers, and leisure bikes for the more laid-back sightseers. If you rent a bike, you also get discounts on group bike tours throughout the city, but even without the tour, biking through this lovely coastal city is an experience you’ll not soon forget!
