Description

Atlanta’s story is one of courage, culture, and constant reinvention, and this private walking tour brings that story to life in the very neighborhoods where history unfolded. Led by a knowledgeable guide, move through the heart of Georgia’s capital while uncovering the people, places, and moments that shaped the city’s identity.

The journey begins in the Sweet Auburn district, the spiritual home of the Civil Rights Movement. Walk along Auburn Avenue to see Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthplace and continue to Ebenezer Baptist Church, where he was baptized and later laid to rest. At the King Center, pause at the Eternal Flame and Reflecting Pool, powerful symbols of a legacy that continues to inspire global movements for equality and justice.

As the route continues, Atlanta’s broader cultural character comes into focus. Pass the headquarters of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, explore John Wesley Dobbs Plaza, and see Woodruff Park Fountain, created to honor the city’s leadership in the fight for civil rights. Moving toward downtown, modern landmarks like the CNN Center and the open green spaces of Centennial Olympic Park reveal how Atlanta balances its past with a dynamic present.

The tour concludes with a memorable finale: a ride on the SkyView Atlanta Ferris Wheel. From high above the streets, take in sweeping skyline views that stretch across downtown and beyond — a striking perspective that perfectly captures Atlanta’s energy, scale, and spirit.
