Atlanta Half Day Tour - This was a great tour led by a great tour guide. Turned out there was only two of us on this tour so we rode around in a big SUV. Nice and cool in the hot weather. We saw many historic sites and wonderful homes. The visit to the Martin Luther King Center was very moving and thought provoking. We then visited the Jimmy Carter Presidential Museum learning things that made me more appreciative of the man before, during, and after his Presidency. We were taken to Ponce Market to do a little shopping and eat lunch.

Fun and comprehensive tour - Really comprehensive and enjoyable tour. Shelly was friendly, knowledgeable, and funny too. It was a really great way to cover a lot of territory since Atlanta is a big, spread out city.

Late tour, omissions in information but a comfortable way to see the city - Tour guide was 45 minutes late, traffic in Atlanta was bad but we were meeting a friend afterwards so we had to bail at Pounce Street Market which was a shame. The Governors House was amazing but that’s not a reflection on this tour as we could’ve booked separately. Not too much information on the founding of Atlanta, its indigenous people, or Martin Luther King Jnr. We did however learn where the free parking was in Atlanta and that the first Chick Fil a was there… bus was comfortable and our fellow attendees were lovely, we covered a lot of ground and so saw a lot of the city but I wouldn’t recommend.

Not very informative with little historical depth - We booked expecting 5 stops; We stopped at 2. I should have been informed (I would have cancelled). The van was comfortable and clean, the tour guide was friendly and a good driver with lively conversation. It lacked any history of Atlanta and was heavy on driving around neighborhoods and lamenting on growth since the Olympics. The guide came 18 minutes late without any communication. Fortunately the staff at the Westin was helpful or we would have left after 15 minutes. I would not recommend this tour. I would recommend new visitors spend time at MLK historical site and visit Ponce Market (it was interesting and great food options). When I come back to Atlanta, I’ll go to Jimmy Carter Center on my own.

Scam, stay away! - Scam, stay away! I bought two tickets to take a guided tour in Atlanta. We showed up on time at the indicated place. Since no one showed up, I called Mrs. Shelly from the contact, who told me that the tour would not start in the morning and offer me an afternoon tour. Since we couldn't in the afternoon, I asked for a refund and she agree. But then the refund never came after many attempts to contact her via phone, Whatsapp and email. I made a complaint to my card, Peachy Keen Tourism replied that it was me who didn't show up, no refund will be granted. So they scammed me U$S 150, I never expected something like that in the United States paying with an international card. Scam, stay away! I bought two tickets for a guided tour of Atlanta. We showed up punctually in the indicado spot. Since no one showed up, I called Mrs. Shelly about the contact, who replied that the visit would not leave in the morning and wanted to insert me in the afternoon. Since we couldn't in the afternoon, I asked for a refund. But then the refund never happened after so many attempts to contact her, by phone, Whatsapp and email. I made the complaint to my credit card, they said it was me who didn't show up. So I was scammed U$S 150, congratulations on the wit, never expected such a thing in the United States paying with an international card.
