River Street Savannah is the main tourist thoroughfare, in Savannah georgia. there is extremely limited paid parking next to the river, so get there early for Riverside parking. I usually park at the convention center on the opposite side of the river and take the free ferry over, not sure of perstion hours. River street, has hotels (Hyatt Regency and the new gentrified JW Marriott) the JW has two levels of rooftop dining, a playground and a bar (cool). In River Street you will find a cobblestone thoroughfare (a pain to drive on), shops, restaurants, bars. Street musicians and artists are spread about. For touring transportation you will find two pedal boats that will take you up and down the river. There are horsedrawn carriages and the like. My favorite part is watching the monstrous 6,7,8,9 story freighters passing in front and above you, stretching for blocks. The crowds on the street appear to be cheerful and happy just to be out in the world again. Folks will respectful and I will say that most, although not all, had face mask on. From Atlanta this is a 4-Hour drive from Jacksonville it's more like a two and a half hour drive. You also have the advantage of being close to Tybee island which is about a 40 minute drive from downtown. if you want to see some ocean water this is the place to go. However if you are a beach person like me from florida, this beach will disappoint you immensely! There is a national park Fort between the city and Tybee island which the kids would probably enjoy immensely but I did not take pictures of that this time.
