Learn about the city's fascinating history, elegant architecture, and unique culture with food tastings at several specialty food stores and restaurants in the area. Sample the local favorites that may include shrimp and grits, pork belly donut sliders, and one-of-a-kind honey. When all is digested and done, it adds up to an authentic southern lunch.

Experiment with the craft of making cocktails during this hands-on class at a bar in Savannah. Meet an expert bartender at the Congress Street Up speakeasy bar in the American Prohibition Museum and learn how to make Prohibition-era cocktails. Taste several cocktails and hear stories about the history of cocktail recipes, mixology, and the Prohibition period.

Though now popular for its animated nightlife, Savannah (along with the rest of the United States), was completely dry during Prohibition in the early 20th century. Learn the history behind the 18th Amendment—and how it led to the rise of smuggling and moonshine—on a tour of the country’s only museum dedicated to the history of Prohibition. Costumed docents keep visitors entertained and informed while exploring this lively collection. And of course, a speakeasy is attached to the museum for you to enjoy after your tour (own expense).

Enjoy food tastings and specialty cocktails during this adults-only, small-group tour. Experience the local tradition of to-go cocktails while getting to know the culture of Savannah along the way.
