Reviews
Zoe was an amazing tour guide, she was so knowledgeable and well-spoken, we loved it. Highly recommend if you are visiting Atlanta.
This was not the advertised 2.5 tour and the food tastings were less in number than advertised. It was alittle over 2 hours and 6 tastings...not 8-9 as we were told. The last stop at a renown bakery and we were given 2 kinds of cookies in a bag "to go" and abruptly dismissed.
had such a wonderful time on this walking tour. Our guide, Joy, was an absolutely wonderful guide it was clear that she had a passion for what she does - knows the history of the area and MLK very well and we thought she told the stories of his life and presence in Atlanta with great skill such that we were deeply moved by the end of tour. We appreciate that she gave us some extra time and will definitely book future tours with the unexpected folks - especially the food tour. Thank you Joy! See you next time :)
