Savannah’s charm unfurls slowly as you ride a vintage trolley through its historic streets, the city’s layered past brushing against you with each turn. The trolley’s wheels hum a steady rhythm while the warm Southern breeze stirs magnolia branches overhead, carrying a faint scent of salt and moss. As you glide past Victorian mansions draped in Spanish moss and through fragrant squares laid out nearly three centuries ago by colonial planner James Oglethorpe, the city’s story settles into sharp relief.
