Depends on the time of year and if kids are involved. I preferred getting a self-guided walking tour map at the historical center in Savannah, but that was in April. If it's hot, I'd recommend the hop-on-hop-off trolleys.
I also think a self tour in Charleston would be the best idea, but if you get a good guide on a carriage ride, they can be worth it. A self tour would give you an opportunity to stop at the shops and beat the crowds for meals, though. Really, the best part of Charleston is the food, so definitely take the time to try a couple of places. The Market is also fun.
I just got back from savannah! Hop on hop off tour is the way to go. We walked it but we could have seen and done more and been less cranky on a trolley

In Charleston, a self guided tour...walk down King St to Whitepoint Park/The Battery, circle back up Meeting St and enjoy museum mile, walk through the market for local products and souvenirs. Eat on East Bay Street, (though i have lots of other recs if you have specifics) If it's a really hot day, head to waterfront park, it's breezy, there's a long dock with big old swings, lovely view of the harbor and you might catch some dolphins playing
