How to Spend a Weekend in Greenville, South Carolina, Greenville, South Carolina

Andrew and I have been celebrating my birthday with some sort of trip every year. Sometimes we go with with friends; sometimes it’s just the two of us. Sometimes we go for two weeks, sometimes we go for a day. Sometimes we fly to another country; sometimes we bike to another county. This year we drove down to Greenville, South Carolina for the weekend.

Free vintage trolleys run on six different routes around the downtown area from Thursday through Sunday.

Your time in Greenville will mainly be spent in the vibrant downtown area, just walking around and exploring up and down and around Main Street. Fun fact: there are 9 bronze mice hidden up and down Main Street. And be sure to check out M.Judson Booksellers for curated book collection and quirky gifts.

You’ll definitely also want to take a few steps away from Main Street to explore Falls Park on the Reedy which gives you the feeling of being surrounded by nature without having to drive somewhere.

We enjoyed our stay at the Hyatt Place Greenville/Downtown. It was nice and easily walkable to everything. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
