Visit Savannah and Visit Tybee partnered with Brand USA and Explore Georgia to host four journalists from the U.K. and Ireland last week. None of the four writers had ever visited Georgia before, and were treated to Savannah’s unique brand of Southern hospitality with meals at The Pirates’ House and Mrs. Wilkes’ Dining Room, and city tours by Old Savannah Tours and The Best Savannah Tour. They also spent time souvenir shopping in boutiques across the city and checking out Savannah’s historic squares and house museums. All of the writers expressed surprise that Savannah has such a large and beautiful historic district and a special appreciation for Savannah’s spectacular climate and weather.
