How to Book a Spring Weekend in Savannah

Plan a $950 spring trip to Savannah for historic squares and southern food without paying interest upfront.

Across the 0% window $63.33/mo 15 months, no interest

How we got that: $950 spread evenly across the 15-month introductory window on the Discover it® Cash Back. Checked · at the bank Carry a balance past the window and the standard APR applies to what is left.

Spring in Savannah is hard to beat. The azaleas bloom across Forsyth Park, moss hangs from the oak trees, and you can spend two full days wandering historic squares and eating fried green tomatoes.

A solid weekend runs about $950 total for flights, a central inn, and plenty of southern food. If you do not want to drop that cash all at once, you can spread the cost out over time using a 0% interest window.

Keep in mind that a 0% APR intro window is a repayment timeline, not free money. If you still have a balance when the 15 months end, regular interest kicks in on whatever remains, so stick to your monthly payment schedule.

The steps

  1. 01

    Time your spring visit

    Aim for late March or early April to catch peak azalea season. The weather sits in the mid-70s, which makes walking between historic squares easy. Book your dates early because spring is Savannah's busiest season.

  2. 02

    Book a central stay

    Look for a hotel or bed and breakfast near Forsyth Park or along Bull Street. Staying central means you can walk everywhere and skip renting a car. Put your lodging deposit down first to lock in a good rate.

  3. 03

    Secure your flights

    Fly into Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport. Direct flights from major East Coast cities are often reasonable if you book six weeks out. If prices look high, check flights into Jacksonville and drive two hours north.

  4. 04

    Reserve your meals

    Food is half the reason to go. Make dinner reservations a month in advance for popular spots in the historic district. Save lunch for casual stops to get fried chicken, pralines, and fresh seafood.

  5. 05

    Set up your payment plan

    Pay for the trip using the Discover it® Cash Back card to get 0% intro APR for 15 months on purchases and balance transfers. If you spread the $950 cost across that window, you pay $63.33 per month. Set up autopay so you clear the balance before the promotional window closes.

  6. 06

    Check the card terms before you commit

    Every figure we publish for the Discover it® Cash Back carries the date a person verified it against Discover and a link to where they checked. Intro windows and APRs change without notice, so confirm the current terms before applying.
