About

A World Apart sits on Savannah's historic River Street — one of the most atmospheric stretches of the American South, where cotton warehouses converted into shops and restaurants line the cobblestoned riverfront above the Savannah River. Classified as a war memorial tourist attraction with a 4. 8 rating across 167 reviews, A World Apart appears to offer an experiential or exhibitive journey related to history.

The River Street location is both an asset and a context setter. This stretch of Savannah is where families typically spend a solid portion of their visit — the river views, the converted warehouses, the candy shops and ice cream, the riverboat tours — and A World Apart fits naturally into a broader River Street afternoon rather than requiring a dedicated trip across town.

For families with older kids and teens who engage with history and memorial experiences, this is worth checking out. The high rating suggests genuine quality. The lack of a listed website or phone number means the most current information comes from showing up or checking Google Maps directly before your visit.

Combine this visit with the broader River Street experience: the riverfront walk, a stop for pralines or candy at one of the River Street sweet shops, possibly a riverboat cruise if timing allows. A World Apart becomes a natural component of a memorable Savannah afternoon rather than a standalone destination.
