The Experience
What your day looks like
The American Prohibition Museum located in Savannah’s City Market is the first and only museum in the United States dedicated to the history of Prohibition. While here, guests will travel back in time to the early 1900s, as anti-alcohol rallies swept the nation and the “booze problem” was pushed to the fore -front of American politics. The true story of America’s struggle with the liquor question, the passing of the 18th Amendment, its impact on the nation, and the far-reaching consequences of the thirteen years of Prohibition all come to life within the walls of the American Prohibition Museum.

We bought tickets ahead of time but when we were in line to enter we realized we had a self guided admission. We asked about upgrading and I can’t possibly tell you how much the person taking tickets helped us be able to attend the guided tour at a great price and we got the last two spots for the upcoming tour. I didn’t get his name but thank you! Emi was our tour guide and I was so impressed with her knowledge and enthusiasm for what she was telling us. Once we got into the Speak Easy she really seemed to explode with the extra knowledge she had about the prohibition! I would definitely recommend the narrated tour verses the self tour ????

A must do for Savannah travelers. Very educational and interesting and to top it off you get to have a drink in the speakeasy but don't get fooled by the double sided mirror where people on the other side can see you doing a flapper dance without you realizing!
