Amazing and Exciting

Carol_M, Jun 2023
We had a fabulous time with our tour guide, Shelley. She was fantastic and the time she spent with us was amazing. She took us to the Martin Luther King memorial, and that was outstanding and then we went to Jimmy Carter’s library. It was unbelievable she took us all through Atlanta and explain the history and how exciting this city has become. We thoroughly enjoyed her. She took so much time with us and we just want her to know how much we appreciated Her thank you Shelley

Best Tour Every

Yvonne_W, Jun 2023
wonderful experience, tour guide was very knowledgeable about his city. I learned something that I didn’t know. I truly enjoyed this tour.

Stone Mountain - Must See Tour

Lia_O, Apr 2023
I won't say "unfortunately, this tour was cancelled", as luck would have it, the substitute tour - Stone Mountain - was such a wonderful experience, enhanced by our very knowledgeable, and entertaining, tour guide - Omar Akinsika, who at the end of the tour had games with prizes! Stone Mountain is a must see, and taking the tour with Omar is a bonus! We all enjoyed our time.

Fabulous city tour

Thomas_A, Apr 2023
Omar was an amazing tour guide, he was very informative, helpful and fun. If your going on a tour you won't regret taking roundabout Atlanta sightseeing city tour.

Let's roll in Atlanta!

Isi_F, Apr 2023
My 1st time in Atlanta & this city tour was so much fun! Getting to sit as a passenger & be driven around a city I knew nothing about was the best part. Omar was so informative & fun to ride with. He was very knowledgeable & detailed in the history of Atlanta. He made sure we were satisfied with our tour. He even provided us with drinks & chips which he didn't have to but we appreciate him for doing that. He was funny & made my family and I very comfortable in the hours we spent together. If you're looking to see the city this is the way to go!

Amazing, must-do tour!

Vicki_C, Apr 2023
The entire tour was memorable! Omar was fantastic! We enjoyed lots of laughs and he not only gave us the history of all of the sites but also weaved in some pop culture. We learned more about the city than we had expected. Excellent tour!

Ms. Shelly, Ms. Shelly, Ms. Shelly!

Alicia_G, Mar 2023
The most memorable part of this tour was the driver, Ms. Shelly! She's incredibly knowledgeable about all things Atlanta. I would definitely recommend this tour and her as the driver.

Varsity drive in

Rich_S, Mar 2023
Varsity drive in was great. Enjoyed Omar. He has a lot of great stories. He has a lot of history under his belt.

Good tour overall, just not exactly what we were looking for.

Denise_N, Nov 2022
Omar was very nice and competent but we should have picked a tour that focused more on historical landmarks and less of driving through the upscale mansions and shopping districts. We did enjoy the trip but wanted a bit more history. Our fault that we didn’t chose more carefully. Enjoyed the lunch stop at Krog market and Omar’s coach g on the great local fare to sample. We did get some history. Wished we had a half hour longer at Martin Luther King area and less mansions.

Great overview of a great city.

Michelle_W, Nov 2022
Omar was a fantastic guide and taught me a lot about the city. I loved the Martin Luther King memorial and trying fried green tomatoes for the first time. It was great to get an overview of the city in an interesting way.

Omar was great. ...

Thomas_L, Nov 2022
Omar was great. Highly recommend him. He was professional, friendly and very knowledgeable. Made us feel very welcome.

ATL

N_T, Nov 2022
The guide was pleasant and engaging very knowledgeable but we were not able to get in cnn, museum and park just to take a few pics.

Response from Host, Nov 2022

Thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately these things are out of our control. Due to the unexpected the Hollywood movies shoots they’ve blocked off the Major tourist attractions like Centennial Olympic Park the whole weekend and Unfortunately CNN Studios has been closed since the start of 2020 Covid Pandemic. We’re very Sorry your tour experience was filled detours and unexpected inconveniences.

Easily one of the best tours I have done

lim_l, Oct 2022
Omar was a great host and guide, and throughout the 4 hours trip, he spoke non stop and ran through facts and sights of uptown, midtown and downtown of Atlanta. Omar has great character and comes across as a very knowledgeable guide. If you like sports, history, food, architecture, culture - I would 100% recommend hopping on and booking this tour. The insights and knowledge of the city that you come out with after this tour definitely outweigh the cost of the tour - go for it!

Awesome Experience

Kalethia_G, Sep 2022
This is a well designed tour, it hits all the right locations and allowed for stops for lunch and photos. Omar, the tour guide, has great energy and shares all his knowledge of the city. He answered all of our questions and never made us feel like we were being rushed. The van was very nice, clean, and well air conditioned. I would highly recommend this one. We were blessed to have a perfect tour.

Take a tour through Rick Grimes

Paul_l, Aug 2022
There’s everything for everyone. First time to Atlanta, it is a good roundabout tour to see the different parts of the city.

Roundabout Atlanta Tour

James_H, Aug 2022
Shelley very knowledgeable of changes to different sections of Atlanta. Excellent tour. Good cross section of Atlanta.

AWESOME!

Patricia_L, Aug 2022
Omar made our journey so personalized. He’s very knowledgeable on all things Atlanta NSEW. Highly intelligent man and an excellent story teller and “journey ambassador.” Patricia

Definitely worth your time.

Debra_B, Jul 2022
Shelley was a wonderful tour guide who clearly knows the Atlanta area and is happy to share information about the same. The only downside was the mode of transportation which was a van was not in the best of condition. It didn’t deter from a great tour though. I would recommend a tour if you want to see different neighborhoods in Atlanta and get an overview of this city.

Need a new van

Dianna_M, Jul 2022
The guide Shelley was great and knowledgeable. The van was in terrible condition and the air condition was barely working. The tour also started an hour late and they did very little to inform us of the reason for the delay.

YOU HAVE GOT TO DO THIS

Heather_M, Jul 2022
Shelly was absolutely AWESOME!!!!! Very knowledgeable about the history as well a progress of Atlanta and surrounding areas

When we went down the van...

Mary_D, Jun 2022
When we went down the van to see the museum and grave of Martin Luther King,,, the tour should have allowed us to go down the van on popular places like CNN etc… to at least have a picture…

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Hello Mary, first thank you for your feedback. Let me just say our Atlanta Sightseeing City tour is very a Comprehensive Overview of the city of Atlanta, there is a lot to cover and see in 4 hours time. We cannot stop at every single popular landmark, our tour does consist of 3 stops of which Centennial Olympic Park Attractions (where CNN is located) is one of them. I do apologize for your misfortune. Special services like this should be booked for private city tours. Lastly, Mary we asked all tour guest to arrive at least 15-20 min before tour departure. This is a group setting tour not an individual tour and you were several minutes late and our tour escort along with the group patiently waited for your arrival though it is not company protocol to wait for late guests.

Very experienced tour...

Bobby_W, May 2022
Very experienced tour guide! She was able to take us places that other tours were unable to due to the number of guests. Our tour being limited to a small group in a smaller vehicle access is much easier in certain parts of the city

A great way to start a stay in Atlanta

Charles_T, Apr 2022
Great guide , Shelly went out of her way . Really got a feel for the city’s layout, historical sites, and folklore
