Savannah and Hilton Head Island make a perfect paired getaway, easily combined thanks to their close proximity, just about an hour’s drive apart.

The hop-on hop-off trolley tour is a fun way to explore Savannah’s landmarks, while the city’s walkable grid makes for easy sightseeing and discovering local treasures.
Hilton Head Island shines with its laid-back vibe, plentiful vacation rental options, gorgeous beaches, and an abundance of outdoor activities, like dolphin cruises and biking along scenic paths.
