Itinerary

Day 1
Plains, and Andersonville, Georgia

Your first day will begin with a stop at Plains, Georgia.  Here, students will learn about the role that a small town, rural upbringing had on President Jimmy Carter as they tour his boyhood farm.  Following the tour, we will travel to Americus where your students will get to experience what it is like to eat on a college campus as we enjoy a buffet-style lunch at Georgia Southwestern State University.  Following lunch, we will travel to Andersonville Historic Site, where students will get to learn about Fort Sumter and the awful conditions prisoners were placed in during the Civil War.  A tour of the POW Museum concludes our time in Andersonville.  We will then travel to Savannah, where we will eat a catered dinner at Barnes' Restaurant and end our evening with a ghost trolley tour of Savannah's haunted history.

I had a good time but would rather pay more to have better seats and hopefully more leg room.

What an awesome trip! Everything was planned to perfection by APlus Tours: the hotel was beautiful and in a perfect location, the busses were on time and clean and the drivers were the best, lunch at the Pirate House was delicious as was breakfast at Henry's, plenty of free time to explore on your own and a wonderful Christmas Tradition show at the Savannah Theatre and much more. Thank you, Mark and Cheri, for all your hard work to make our travel experience such a positive one!
