We were in town for the Shakira concert and trying to get as much fit in during our limited time in ATL. Stumbled upon the 90 min Trolley Tour on another platform and both the time span, pick up/dropoff locations (in front of Hilton Garden Inn) in downtown made this a good choice. The guide was so friendly. We were taking a selfie and she kindly offered to take a pic of my family in front of an attraction. The Trolley was clean and comfortable with AC. We were even offered ice cold water which was a kind helpful detail on the very hot day. The driver was pleasant and drove well. Excellent way to learn fun and historical facts. Also highlighted architecture, food culture, fun facts, movie facts, and different neighborhood. Allowed to get off for a quick visit to MLK Center. They have a restroom inside and gift shop. Towards the end the guide played oldies and newer music in name that tune format featuring artists with Atlanta roots. Whether this is the only sightseeing you can fit in or you want an intro before venturing to specific places, this is a great buy! Tickets are digital and you just need to confirm you are there with guide when you arrive before departure. Easily accessible from any downtown hotel. After this tour ended we had lunch nearby the Hilton Garden Inn and walked over to nearby Pemberton Place to visit the Center for Civil and Human Rights (also great)! Highly Recommend!
