Charleston considerably larger, more varied. Savannah more beautiful, laid back. Net, depends on what you want. Me, I'd go 3/2 C/S.

I love Savannah, I work in the city. I recommend Foxy Loxy for coffee and tacos. Perc is also a cool spot for coffee Collins Quarter is great for breakfast too. Charleston is fun too, I would agree to say Savannah is more laid back

Never been to Savannah so no help at all, but we’ve been to Charleston several times and loved it! Have fun!

Coincidentally, we were in Charleston last week Confirmed again that this is our favorite city to visit. Made plans for future visit. This time we rented a five bedroom, five bath house on Folly Beach, and made several day trips to Charleston of about 20 - 30 minutes, depending on traffic.

Toured the Yorktown, WWII Aircraft Carrier. Highlight was chatting with Bill, 96 year-old, who flew Hellcat off of Yorktown when he was 21. Quite a character
