After meeting at our shop located near Savannah’s beautiful Forsyth Park, we will set everyone up with a bike based on your height, comfort, and preference to ensure an enjoyable ride around the Hostess City.
This bike tour covers the most popular sites around Savannah’s Historic District over a flat, easy to enjoy route. Our experienced, local tour guides will take you to the Mercer-Williams House; the actual site of events described in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
