Excellent! Whether you know a lot or a little about Margaret Mitchell, you will love this tour. Our guide told us about Margaret Mitchell, post and pre book writing. He also shared very interesting facts about Atlanta and between stops shared much of the city’s history. Highly recommend!!!

Amazing Experience

We loved the tour experience. We learned a lot about Margret Mitchell and got to visit her home where she wrote the book Gone with the Wind. Went to the Library where her typewriter is displayed there with some other items of hers. We passed by the neighborhood she grew up at and stopped to look at the last house she lived at. We got to visit the Oakland Cemetery where she is buried at. It was amazing to be able to do this as private tour.

Thought I already did this but...

Thought I already did this but... The private tour was amazing!! Our guide, Dan, was very knowledgeable about Atlanta's history and showed us many places in Atlanta that I didn't know were there. He actually took us in a different direction than just the tour we signed up for and as a result, got to see so much more of Atlanta's history, neighborhoods, etc. Would definitely book through Viator again.
