Our tour guide was exceptional! His knowledge of the city was extremely impressive. We had a small amount of time to see the city and this tour really made the most of it. I would absolutely do this tour again.

This is my first trip to Atlanta other than the airport and my tour with Melinda inspired me to want to come back. She is personable, knowledgeable, flexible and an all-around great guide. We did a combination driving and walking tour focused on spectacular residential architecture. Atlanta has so many interesting beautiful neighborhoods. We visited midtown, Ansley Park, Virginia Heights, Druid Hills, Ponce Market, and finished with the south downtown. Highly recommend this tour. Easy to arrange online, communication and meeting very easy.
