Hey y'all, if you're looking to explore Savannah's antebellum history on foot, I'd recommend the Owens-Thomas House tour. It covers some of the most impressive homes and historic sites in the district, including the famous Mercer Williams House. What really sets it apart is the knowledgeable guides who bring the stories to life - we learned so much about life in 19th-century Savannah from our guide last time around
