American Prohibition Museum, 209 W. St. Julian Street, Savannah, GA
Just a short stroll from the route of the Savannah Walktails and Bar Bites Happy Hour Tour, the American Prohibition Museum sits in the heart of City Market, offering a fascinating window into the era that shaped the cocktail culture you will sip your way through on this experience. As the only museum in the country dedicated to the Prohibition years, the American Prohibition Museum brings the Roaring Twenties to life with life-size figures, vintage photographs, and a working speakeasy hidden behind its galleries. Savannah's complicated relationship with liquor laws and bootleggers makes this corner of the city the perfect backdrop for a tour built around historic taverns and modern mixology.
While the Walktails and Bar Bites Happy Hour Tour leads you between three of Savannah's beloved bars for craft cocktails and small plates, the American Prohibition Museum provides the historical context that makes every sip more meaningful. You will learn how speakeasies operated in cities like Savannah, why certain cocktails were invented to mask bathtub gin, and how the temperance movement collided with Southern hospitality. The museum's exhibits, from flapper dresses to original moonshine stills, pair beautifully with the stories your guide shares as you wander cobblestone lanes, glass in hand, breathing in the salt air and Spanish moss that define the Historic District.
This pairing is ideal for curious travelers, history lovers, cocktail enthusiasts, and couples looking for a date that goes beyond the usual dinner reservation. Groups of friends celebrating a birthday or weekend getaway will appreciate how the American Prohibition Museum sets the stage for the laid-back, social rhythm of the walking tour that follows. If you enjoy connecting what is in your glass to the people and places that made it possible, a visit to the American Prohibition Museum before or after your Walktails experience turns a fun night out into a richer story you will retell long after you leave Savannah.
This walking food tour delivers exactly what travelers want: knowledgeable guides who genuinely love Savannah's history and culture, paired with stops at local restaurants ranging from hidden gems to upscale spots like Cotton, 22 Square, and Rhett. The guides really shine here. Christopher consistently earns praise for weaving Black history into his narratives and bringing the city's squares to life. Beck, Gail, Lisa, Joshua, and Bethany all get enthusiastic shout-outs for making the experience both entertaining and educational. People appreciate that guides recommend additional restaurants beyond the tour stops and share stories during the walks between tastings. The format works well for groups spanning different ages, and many reviewers mention it's perfect for getting oriented on your first day in the city. The food itself gets solid marks, with the shrimp and grits standing out as exceptional (one reviewer called it better than versions in New Orleans and Charleston). You'll try both conventional southern dishes and unexpected combinations like a pork belly donut sandwich. The tour includes five stops total, which leaves most people comfortably full by the end. There's a retail component at the finish where you can buy honey, peach jam, and sauces from the tour. One dissenting voice felt portions were too small and disliked the sales aspect, finding the condiment tasting inappropriate, but this appears to be an outlier experience. Wear comfortable walking shoes since you'll be covering ground between the squares, and definitely skip breakfast beforehand.
What a great tour! We went places & learned things we never would have. Our guide Meryl was so friendly and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!
