History, Haunts and Hops- Savannah’s ONLY All Drinks Included Pub Crawl

Three drinks, three Savannah haunt stories. This guided walking pub crawl mixes dark local lore with a practical bar-hopping route, and it ends right near the famous downtown square. You start at the Georgia Tasting Room and finish at Chippewa Square, with your ticket covering the drinks.

I like that you get real choice at each stop, not a single token pour. Each of the three drink stops lets you pick beer, champagne, or a cocktail, so the tour can work for different tastes in the same group. I also like the pacing and storytelling style—guides like Addison and Chris have been praised for keeping it fun while still taking the history seriously. One thing to consider: you’re on a tight two-hour schedule, so if you like to linger and take your time between bars, you may feel a bit rushed.

Key Points to Know Before You Go

• Three included stops, three included drinks: one drink choice per stop.
• Choice at every stop: beer, champagne, or cocktail.
• Spooky-meets-classy variety: speakeasy vibe, champagne bar mood, and a wine/moonshine slushy stop.
• Short, focused walking route: about 2 hours from start to finish.
• Small-ish group feel: capped at 25 for this experience.
• Weather matters: the crawl depends on walkable conditions.

What This Savannah Crawl Does Better Than a Typical Bar Hike

Savannah has plenty of ghost tours and plenty of bar nights. This one tries to combine the two without turning it into chaos. The result is a guided stroll that keeps you moving while you learn the stories behind the city’s darker corners.

What makes it work for real life is the structure. You’re not wandering from bar to bar trying to guess where you should go next. You know there are three planned drink stops and you’ll get a drink at each one. That’s a big value point, especially in a tourist city where “one drink” often turns into a second and third purchase.

It also helps that the tour’s tone is described as entertaining rather than relentlessly scary. People mention it as fun, not scary-to-the-point-of-hate. If you want a little haunt energy to go with your night out, this hits that middle ground.

Price and Value: Why $60 Can Make Sense Here

At $60 per person for a tour that runs about 2 hours, you’re paying for three things: a guide, a walking route, and drinks that are included in the ticket. If you were to buy three drinks on your own in Savannah—especially at the kinds of bars this crawl includes—you’d likely spend close to that or more fast.

The key is that the ticket covers your drinks on the crawl. You’re not buying each pour separately during the tour. And because you can choose your drink type (beer, champagne, or cocktail) at each stop, the value doesn’t rely on you liking one specific brand of drink.

One practical note: the schedule is tight. Reviews mention that sometimes you won’t have time to finish a drink on the spot. The good news is that you can take the drink with you, so you’re not stuck with a half-finished cup if you want to keep the walking momentum.

Also, there’s a promo code mentioned for savings: SNS10. If you’re price-sensitive, check that code before you lock it in.

From the Georgia Tasting Room to Chippewa Square: Route and Timing

The walk starts at Georgia Tasting Room, 306 W Saint Julian Street. It ends at Chippewa Square, one of the easiest landmarks to orient around in downtown Savannah.

Because the tour is about 2 hours, timing matters. You’ll want to arrive at the meeting point a few minutes early so you don’t lose time during the first handoff. The experience has a cap of 25 travelers, which usually makes it easier for a guide to keep everyone together without turning it into a stampede.

Also, the tour is offered in English and uses a mobile ticket. That’s useful if you’re trying to keep your trip paper-light and scan things fast.

Stop One: The Speakeasy-Style First Pour

The first drink stop is set up like a secret-spot experience. The crawl description points to a secret speakeasy early on, which is a smart move: it gets you into the story-world right away.

Here’s what to expect in practical terms. You’ll get your first drink choice—beer, champagne, or a cocktail—and you’ll also get history and spooky lore woven into the walk. The early storytelling matters because it tells you what to look for as you move through the streets.

Based on guide praise, the first stop can be a highlight. People specifically call out their favorite drink being at the first meeting-point area and note that the stops were well spaced. That’s exactly what you want early in a crawl: a confident start, not a long wait, and not too much sitting.

Stop Two: Classy Champagne Bar Energy

The second stop shifts the vibe toward something more polished: a classy champagne bar feel. If you’ve ever been on a pub crawl where everything is noisy and the drinks are almost identical, this change of setting is a nice reset.

You’ll still have the same drink choice framework—beer, champagne, or cocktail—so even if champagne isn’t your first pick, you’re not locked into it. But the point of the stop is the atmosphere. Savannah loves contrasts, and so does this crawl: ghost stories plus a more elegant drink environment.

One review mentions two of the drink spots being really great and one being less impressive, which is a normal risk with any multi-venue tour. The good part is you still get an included drink at each stop, so even if one venue doesn’t click for you, you’re not paying extra to make it work.

Stop Three: Wine and Moonshine Slushy Sweet Spot

The final stop is where the tour turns playful. It’s described as a wine/moonshine slushy bar, and moonshine slushies are the type of novelty that makes a walking tour memorable.

At this stop you’ll again choose from beer, champagne, or cocktail, but the venue type signals the fun factor. If you’re the kind of traveler who wants one “only-in-Savannah” moment, this is likely it. At least, one guide praised specifically mentions how they didn’t know moonshine slushies were a thing before trying them.

This stop also helps you end strong. By the time you hit the last venue, you’ve already learned the key themes behind Savannah’s haunt lore and you’ve built a bit of social momentum with your group.

The Guides: What Makes the Stories Land

The big difference between a gimmicky ghost crawl and a worthwhile one is the guide. In this experience, guide performance is repeatedly called out.

Addison is praised for being relaxed, detailed, and not rushing through the time. Chris is praised for mixing haunt storytelling with history and keeping the group entertained. Austin is also mentioned as fun while still keeping things on track.

You’ll want a guide who can do two things at once: tell the story in a way that feels like Savannah, not a script, and manage the pacing so the group isn’t waiting around forever.

A common theme in feedback is that the tour feels laid back while still moving. That matters because you’re drinking and walking, so downtime can feel longer than you expect.

One more tip: if your guide shares photos or visual references during the walk, pay attention. Reviews mention that this was a plus and helped make the history stick.

How Scary Is It, Really?

This crawl is built around haunts, not terror. Multiple comments describe it as not too scary, with a mix of spooky sites and historical stories.

That’s the sweet spot for most people. You get the thrill of the creepy details without needing to psych yourself up like you would for a true horror show.

If you’re traveling with mixed ages or you want something more “spooky-fun” than “spooky-danger,” this is the kind of tour you can feel comfortable recommending.

Walking, Pace, and Drink Timing: What to Plan For

Expect a walking tour that lasts about 2 hours. The stops are designed to be paced so you’re not stuck in one location for too long.

Still, drink timing can vary. One person notes that they couldn’t finish their drink because there wasn’t enough time between stops. That’s a real consideration for anyone who prefers slow sipping. The best workaround is simple: you can take the drink with you if you want to keep moving.

Also, plan for rain. The tour is described as weather-dependent and requires good conditions. If severe weather hits, the experience can be canceled, and you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund.

So I suggest packing a light layer for the walk. Even when the tour runs, Savannah weather can change fast.

Who Should Book History, Haunts, and Hops

This crawl is a strong fit for you if:

• you want a pre-dinner activity that also covers drinks
• you like a guided walking experience more than wandering on your own
• you want Savannah haunt lore with a social, bar-friendly vibe
• your group has mixed drink preferences, since you can pick beer, champagne, or cocktails at each stop

It might not be the best match if:

• you hate walking or you want a sit-down pace
• you expect unlimited drinks beyond three included pours
• you want a slow, deep lecture style history session without the bar stops

Group size is capped at 25, which helps keep the tour from becoming too unwieldy.

Should You Book It or Skip It?

If you’re choosing between a basic ghost tour and a standard pub crawl, I’d lean toward booking this one for the blend. You get structure (so you’re not guessing), a themed route (speakeasy, champagne bar, slushy-style finish), and clear value math because the ticket includes the drinks.

Book it if you want a fun night that also gives you stories you can repeat later. Skip it if you’re looking for a long, slow history experience or a crawl that turns into endless ordering.

If the weather looks questionable, check your plans close to the start time. And if you’re the type who likes to linger at each bar, go into it with a flexible mindset—take the drink, enjoy the stop, then keep walking.
