The quick answer: which Savannah bar tour should you book?
If you want comedy, crowd interaction and a professional drag queen hosting the night, choose the Savannah Drag Queen Bar Crawl. If you want ghost stories, real Savannah history and bars in the same evening, choose The Traveling Ghost haunted pub crawl. If your bachelorette, birthday or private group wants its own queen and its own experience, choose the Private Drag Queen Bar Crawl.
1. Savannah Drag Queen Bar Crawl: best for a social, high-energy night
The Savannah Drag Queen Bar Crawl is a two-hour, 21+ hosted nightlife experience. The queen is not simply performing at one bar; she moves with the group, works the crowd, creates comedy between stops and turns the crawl itself into the entertainment.
Current direct pricing is $48 per guest. Drinks are purchased separately, and the exact bar lineup can vary. This is the strongest fit for bachelorettes, couples, girls trips, birthdays and travelers who like meeting other people while they go out.
2. The Traveling Ghost: best for haunted history with drinks
The Traveling Ghost is the better fit when the stories matter as much as the bars. It blends Savannah history, local ghost lore and downtown nightlife into one 21+ evening experience.
This is not simply a traditional walking ghost tour with a drink added at the end. The pub-crawl format is more social and gives the group time to settle into the night while the haunted stories connect the stops. If you are deciding between the two formats, see our Savannah haunted pub crawl vs. ghost tour comparison.
3. Private Drag Queen Bar Crawl: best when your group wants the spotlight
For bigger bride crews, birthdays and groups that do not want to share the experience with other travelers, the Private Drag Queen Bar Crawl gives your group its own queen and a defined two-hour Savannah night out.
Current direct group tiers are $650 for up to 10 guests, $1,200 for up to 20 guests and $2,100 for up to 35 guests. The value is not simply “more seats.” Private means the host, pacing and interaction stay focused on your group.
Savannah bar tour vs. planning your own bar crawl
You can absolutely build your own Savannah night. A self-planned night makes sense if your group wants maximum flexibility and already knows the areas it wants to explore. A hosted bar tour makes more sense when you want one meeting point, a defined start, a local host and an experience that creates the energy instead of asking one person in the group to manage everyone.
- Book a hosted tour if the group wants entertainment, structure and a clear plan.
- Plan your own crawl if the group mainly wants freedom to wander and change plans constantly.
- Book private if keeping a larger group together is more important than meeting other travelers.
Best Savannah bar tour for a bachelorette party
For smaller, social bride crews, the public Drag Queen Bar Crawl is usually the strongest value. For a larger crew—or a group that wants the queen focused entirely on the bride—the private crawl is usually the cleaner choice. If your group wants to keep the entertainment at an approved hotel, rental, restaurant or event venue, compare Rent a Drag Queen instead.

What to know before a Savannah bar tour
- Bring valid photo ID. Our nightlife crawls are 21+.
- Drinks are purchased separately. Tour pricing covers the hosted experience, not an open bar.
- Wear shoes you can actually walk in. Savannah is historic, beautiful and not famous for perfectly smooth sidewalks.
- Arrive ready to participate. Drag-hosted experiences work best when the group is willing to laugh, interact and be part of the night.
- Do not overbook the evening. Give your group enough time to eat, get ready and reach the meeting point without sprinting across downtown.
