Traveler reviews
The Atlanta Vibe
Yesterday’s tour was an incredible experience! We visited several historical sites throughout Atlanta and learned so much about the rich history and contributions of Black people in this amazing city. Our narrator was truly exceptional. His knowledge of history was impressive, but what stood out the most was his passion. You could tell that he genuinely loves Atlanta and takes pride in sharing its story. His storytelling brought the history to life and made the entire experience meaningful and memorable. I left the tour with a deeper appreciation for Atlanta, its history, and the people who helped shape it.
Great Time!
My husband treated me to this tour for my birthday and it was wonderful. Jeff is very knowledgeable and friendly. He also has a comedic side which adds to the overall experience. We walked away with a great insight on the civil rights history in Atlanta. I highly recommend booking the tour. Will definitely do another tour in the future.
Black history and civil rights tour
What an excellent piece of history. Mr. Jeff Moore did a phenomenal job taking me through the black history and civil rights tour. He is very knowledgeable and thorough . The screen in the van brings each piece of history to life as the pictures pop during the tour along the way. He was very patient and friendly, helping with taking some pictures and ensuring that I captured every piece and landmark. He made sure to explain every detail and to touch on every aspect about black history . This is a great tour full of information that needs to be kept and passed on forever.
