Here you will see where Forrest Gump sat with his box of chocolates, while waiting for the bus. The monument in the center of Chippewa Square is General James Oglethorpe, not Captain Morgan. We agree he does look a lot like Captain Morgan, and it would be appropriate since Savannah does allow to-go cups. Here you will learn about he man behind the colony of Savannah, and what his monument represents.

The Gryphon Tea Room is located inside what we call the Shriner's Building. Inside the Gryphon Tea room is a museum in itself, once being used as Solomon's Apothecary, and still has the original mahogany cabinetry and cubbies used to store the medicines. The Gryphon Tea Room is one of our favorites for lunch, dinner or to relax with a cup of tea!

The Mercer Williams house, made famous by the book Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil, written by John Berendt. This is a true story of Jim Williams, who purchased the home in 1969, and the shooting of his assistant Danny 1981. The book was released in 1993, and on New York best seller list for 216 weeks, longer than any book in history. A few years later, the movie was released and helped put Savannah on the map of tourism. After-all, everyone loves a good scandal every once in a while. We recommend reading the book, or at least watching the movie prior to visiting Savannah.

Now known as the Armstrong-Kessler house, we will talk about the history of the home, and who lives in this 26,000+ square foot home today. This is the one home in town where everyone gasps "WOW' and has to stop to admire. This is an absolutely magnificent home and one not to be missed. This is a private home today and not open for tours.

Forsyth Park, this is where our tour ends. This park began in 1848 with only 10 acres, today it covers 30 acres. It is our Central Park and enjoyed by young and old alike. The crowning jewel of Savannah, our Forsyth Park Fountain. What most people don't realize is that this was a catalog mail order from France and installed in 1858. It is must-see and you must have your picture taken in front of this amazing fountain.
