Learning about the outstanding black history (Independence, wealth, strong community values) was great! Henry, our tour guide, is truly a credit to Atlanta, Black History and the tour company. He engaged my two sons (age 11 & 13) and kept them interested. The car was very comfortable for us and the information flowed smoothly! This tour was awesome!

The driver waited too long to start the Black History Atlanta tour. After picking us up late, he parked after driving out the parking lot and talked for about 15 mins....,Also comments about politics caused a little contention in the car between my quest and the driver..... In conclusion the driver was very thorough about the black history shared and other info stated.
The tour would have been more effective if the driver would have started driving and talking instead of parking his car and talking. Also, he should have left politics out of his tour.
In conclusion, I do not think my tour was $130. Kathleen James

Its unfortunate that you didn't enjoy your experience. As we discussed there was miscommunication with your pick up information. This is a historical tour and does require a bit of communication to give perspective, understanding on what you will be seeing, and why some things does not exist anymore. Unfortunately, Atlanta's history is riddled with politics stemming from the civil war era to Jim crow laws passed to destroy black communities. Politics have always played a major role in shaping the culture and circumstances in black communities. We appreciate you for booking and hope to better serve you in a future Atlanta experience.
