Fetch your bags exit Savannah, GA Airport (SAV-Savannah - Hilton Head Intl.), and collect your rental car. Which one you climb into depends on where you plan to go. If you’ll be mostly driving in downtown Savannah, around 8 miles from the terminal, select something small. A compact car with nimble handling will be ideal for navigating those bustling city streets. But with loads of things to see, like the striking sandy shores of the surrounding area, you’ll probably be racking up a few miles. A larger vehicle, like a full-size car or an SUV, will make lengthier road trips a pleasure.
