Activity itinerary

Forsyth Park (Pass by)
We start at the old Telfair Women's Hospital across the street from the park. While most people encounter Mary Telford's legacy through her museums, one of Georgia's first feminists made a lasting impact on women's health
Colonial Park Cemetery (Pass by)
Savannah has a long history of dueling, and common practice held that at least one doctor needed to be present. Your guide will discuss the implications of dueling through a case study including one of the original signers of the Declaration of Independence.
Mercer Williams House Museum (Pass by)
Your guide will discuss the events made famous in the book and movie Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil from a medical prospective.
Juliette Gordon Low's Birthplace (Pass by)
The Founder of the Girl Scouts was famously deaf in one ear, but a fluke childhood accident left her deaf in one year, and later in life a medical tragedy saved her from a loveless marriage.
Owens-Thomas House & Slave Quarters
  • 10m
This house built by a slave trader and will serve the backdrop to discuss Savannah's place in the buying and selling of human beings and the medical implications of enslaving people and transporting them on cramped ships across the Atlantic
Johnson Square
  • 10m
This the end point of the tour. Your guide will wrap up, offer directions to other attractions and provide recommendation for area restaurants and shopping if desired.
