How long is the Old Town Trolley Savannah tour?

A full stay-onboard loop takes about 90 minutes. If you book the <experience type="Popup" tgid="46846" title="hop-on hop-off ticket" id="z5VDBJkd" /> and get off at a few stops, plan 3–6 hours total. Many travelers ride one full loop first, then use later loops for River Street, City Market, or Forsyth Park.

What Old Town Trolley Savannah experiences are available?

You can choose from three unique experiences: Moron Tour Savannah, a comedy sightseeing tour; Savannah Holiday Sights & Festive Nights, a seasonal holiday-themed trolley experience; and Ghost Hunters of Savannah, a hands-on paranormal investigation.

Are these hop-on hop-off tours?

No. All three experiences follow fixed routes or guided formats and operate on scheduled departures. They do not offer hop-on hop-off access.

Where do Old Town Trolley Savannah tours board?

Most visitors start at the Old Town Trolley Welcome Center near the Savannah Visitor Center, where parking, restrooms, and staff help are available. Some tickets can also be scanned at official street stops. Always check your voucher first, because some require initial validation there.

How early should I arrive before my tour?

Plan to arrive at least 15–30 minutes before departure, depending on your ticket, to allow time for check-in and boarding.

Is the Ghost Hunters of Savannah experience suitable for children?

No. Guests must be at least 13 years old to participate, and visitors aged 13–17 must be accompanied by a ticketed adult.

Can I bring food and drinks on the tours?

Outside food and beverages are generally not included or permitted. The Moron Tour includes a refreshment stop where you can purchase drinks, and the Holiday tour includes a complimentary mocktail and treat.

Can I bring a stroller or luggage onboard?

Compact strollers are usually allowed, but you may need to fold them before boarding. Large luggage is not accommodated because this is a sightseeing tour, not a transfer service. If you're traveling with bulky items, store them before your tour starts.

What should I wear for the Savannah trolley tour?

Wear light, breathable clothing in warmer months and bring sunscreen, water, and a hat. The trolleys are roofed but open-sided, so you'll still feel heat, humidity, and wind. In cooler or rainy weather, bring a light layer for comfort.

Do Old Town Trolley tours run in rain?

Usually, yes. Old Town Trolley tours generally continue in light to moderate rain, and plastic side panels may be rolled down for protection. Severe weather can disrupt or pause service, so check same-day updates if storms are forecast in Savannah.

Are food, drinks, and photos allowed onboard?

Photography is allowed, and many riders take photos from their seats and at stops. Small, closed drinks and non-messy snacks are generally fine. Alcohol is typically not allowed onboard, even though open-container rules in Savannah can differ elsewhere in the city.

Are pets allowed on Old Town Trolley Savannah?

No. Regular pets are generally not allowed on Old Town Trolley Savannah tours. Service animals are typically the only exception. If you're traveling with a service animal, it’s wise to notify the operator in advance so boarding and seating can be arranged smoothly.

What onboard rules apply on Savannah trolley tours?

Smoking and vaping are not allowed, aisles need to stay clear, and bulky strollers may need folding. Because commentary is live, keep noise low enough for others to hear the guide. Drivers can refuse unsafe items or anything that blocks boarding.

Pick the right tour format

The 1-Day Pass is a hop-on hop-off trolley ticket for flexible daytime sightseeing across Savannah. Paranormal Ghost Hunting Investigation is an immersive experience, not a citywide transport pass, while Holiday Sights and Festive Nights is a separate seasonal tour format with its own dates and inclusions. Pick based on format first, then timing.

1/9

Savannah Visitor Center / Welcome Center Stop

Visitor Services and Route Start
At the western edge of the Historic District, this main boarding hub sits beside the Visitor Center and parking. Most riders start here for route orientation, restrooms, and ticket validation before heading east into Savannah’s core squares.

City Market Stop

Food, Shopping, and Street-Life District
Near Ellis Square on the western side of downtown, this food-and-shopping stop breaks up the historic route with galleries, restaurants, and street activity. It’s a practical midday detour, then an easy reboard point before the riverfront segment.

River Street / Savannah Riverfront Stop(s)

Waterfront Warehouses and Cobblestone District
Above or just off River Street, this stop cluster serves the waterfront district of cobblestones, warehouses, shops, and river views. It comes later on the loop and saves a steep walk back toward the inland squares.

Forsyth Park Area Stop

Parkland and Victorian Streetscape
Toward the southern end of the tour, this park-area stop shifts from tight square streets to broad lawns and Victorian edges. Riders hop off here for the fountain and shade, then rejoin northbound toward the denser historic grid.

Cathedral of St. John the Baptist Vicinity Stop

Church Architecture and Civic Landmarks
Near Lafayette Square in the eastern Historic District, this stop focuses on church architecture and nearby civic landmarks. The trolley slows as the cathedral comes into view, and the walk onward links easily with surrounding squares.

Historic Squares Cluster Stops

Monument-Filled Urban Plan Route
These central stops thread through Savannah’s planned square system, where monuments, churches, and shaded benches sit within short walking distances of one another. They form the route’s core middle section and work best after an initial full loop.

Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace / Historic Homes Area Stop

House Museums and Domestic History
Along Oglethorpe-area streets near several house museums, this stop suits visitors interested in domestic history and guided interiors. It sits within the central route, making it an easy off-and-on pause between the squares and eastern church stops.

Old Savannah Distillery

Local Spirits Stop on the River Side
On East River Street near the waterfront end, this stop adds a modern local-industry angle to the historic circuit. It sits away from the park side of town, so many riders pair it with nearby riverfront walking before reboarding.

Ghost Tour Boarding Point

Evening Haunted-History Route Start
For the evening variation, this central departure point shifts the experience from daytime orientation to haunted-history storytelling. Arrive here rather than the main Welcome Center; the route is separate, runs after dark, and includes fixed boarding instead of daytime hopping.

Things to know before booking your Old Town Trolley Tours Savannah tickets

Booking window

All three experiences operate on timed departures and require advance reservations. Holiday tours run only on select dates during the Christmas season, while paranormal investigations often have limited group sizes and can sell out on weekends.

What's included

Each ticket offers a completely different experience. Moron Tour Savannah focuses on comedy and sightseeing, Holiday Sights & Festive Nights combines festive attractions with exclusive holiday stops, while Ghost Hunters of Savannah is a hands-on paranormal investigation using professional equipment.

Entrances & check-in

These are fixed-departure experiences rather than hop-on hop-off tours. Arrive 15–30 minutes before departure depending on your ticket, as late arrivals may lose their reserved seats.

Ways to explore

Choose Moron Tour Savannah if you want a lighthearted introduction to the city with live comedy. Choose Holiday Sights & Festive Nights if you're visiting during the festive season and want a family-friendly evening activity. Choose Ghost Hunters of Savannah if you'd rather investigate one historic location in depth than ride around the city.

Accessibility

The holiday tours can accommodate accessible vehicles with advance notice. The paranormal investigation takes place in a historic building with steep stairs and may not be suitable for guests with mobility limitations. Accessibility for the Moron Tour should be confirmed directly with the operator before booking.

Plan your Old Town Trolley Tours Savannah experience

Operating hours: Daytime trolleys usually run from afternoon to late afternoon; tour slots are available for 2pm and 4pm.
Loop duration: A stay-onboard circuit takes about 90 minutes without hop-offs.
Last departure: Last full loops leave in late afternoon, so late starts cut stop time sharply.
Best time of day to go: Early morning usually brings cooler weather, shorter waits, and better seat choice.
Peak crowd window: 10am to 2pm often brings fuller trolleys at major stops.
Best season or month to visit: Spring and fall feel most comfortable; summer brings heavier heat and humidity.

Physical effort: A full loop stays low-effort; multiple hop-offs add walking across squares, sidewalks, and cobblestones.
Pacing: Hop-on hop-off sightseeing usually needs 3 to 6 hours, not just the 90-minute loop.
Weather dependency: Open sides keep views clear but expose riders to heat, humidity, wind, and rain.
Waits: Midday gaps can run longer at busy stops like City Market and River Street.
Age or participation constraints: Small children often handle shorter ride segments and break stops better than full-day looping.
Accessibility notes: Only some trolleys carry lift access, so Welcome Center boarding works best.

Restrooms: Restrooms are available at the Welcome Center and near City Market; none are available onboard.
Seating: Trolleys use roofed, bench-style seating with open sides for airflow and street views.
Visitor services: The Welcome Center includes ticket help, basic trip information, and boarding support.
Parking access: Adjacent parking makes the Welcome Center the easiest start for drivers.
Storage: Large luggage storage is not part of the tour; day bags work best.

Clothing: Light, breathable clothing works best from May through September, when humidity rises fast.
Sun protection: A hat, sunscreen, and water help on open-sided rides with long sunny stretches.
Rain prep: A light rain layer helps on wet days; plastic side panels reduce spray but not all dampness.
Carry-ons: Small bags and foldable strollers board more smoothly during busy daytime runs.
What to leave behind: Oversized luggage and bulky gear become awkward once midday seats fill.

Checked: June 2026

Ticket format: Mobile or printed tickets usually scan at boarding; voucher instructions vary by seller.
Voucher exchange: Some third-party bookings need first validation at the Welcome Center before boarding elsewhere.
Arrival buffer: About 20 minutes helps for voucher exchange, fixed departures, or evening variants.
Queue reality: Online booking skips the ticket counter, not the trolley boarding queue.
Variant note: Night or combo variants use separate fixed departure slots, unlike daytime hop-on boarding.
Validity: Same-day tickets lose value fast after a late start because service ends in early evening.

Tips & guidelines

In humid months, wear breathable, light-colored clothing and consider a small handheld fan; open-sided trolleys trap warmth when they pause in traffic, especially around midday.
For chilly mornings or damp days, pack a thin sweater or scarf; when clear side panels are down, breezes drop but the air inside can still feel cool.
Choose outer seats near the middle of the trolley for better cross-breezes and views; front rows hear the guide clearly but get stronger wind and occasional road spray.
If you’re planning to hop off, wear closed-toe walking shoes; cobblestones, brick sidewalks, and occasional uneven curbs around River Street and the squares can be tricky in sandals.
During busy spring and fall weekends, lines can stretch; carry a compact umbrella or sunshade and an offline map or book to make 20–40 minute waits less frustrating.
Keep voices low on board so everyone can hear the live narration; if traveling with kids, pack quiet snacks and activities rather than videos with sound.

Frequently asked questions about Old Town Trolley Savannah tickets

A full stay-onboard loop takes about 90 minutes. If you book the hop-on hop-off ticket and get off at a few stops, plan 3–6 hours total. Many travelers ride one full loop first, then use later loops for River Street, City Market, or Forsyth Park.
