Marvellous tour tailored to every individual’s interests. See the areas which others don’t visit!

Chris was an exceptional guide. His engagement, energy and enthusiasm were second to none. We thoroughly enjoyed a wide-ranging exploration of the different neighbourhoods which gave us a secure grasp of the geography and historical development of the city. A great way to appreciate the dynamism and development of Atlanta.

An entertaining, informative and interactive view of Atlanta

I really enjoyed this great way to get to know a city previously unfamiliar with me. The tour was entertaining and informative, but also interactive, an experience that felt more like a conversation than a lecture. Chris was great at adapting where he took me to my particular interests and curiosities about the city (emphasizing the music, arts and sports scenes in my case), and gave appreciated advice that a certain option outside the vehicle takes more time than it would be worth to get the most value from the trip. Highly recommended way to see and learn about Atlanta.

Thank you Chris! An amazing insight into Atlanta!

The "Must See Sights of Atlanta" private tour with Chris from Terminus Tours is an exceptional, highly-rated 5* experience. Chris provides a tailored 3 hour driving tour covering landmarks like the MLK Jr. Center, BeltLine, and Buckhead homes, blended with insightful history, local charm, and filming locations. Chris is knowledgeable, punctual, engaging, and professional. He curates the itinerary based on your interests, even in real-time. The tour features top sites like the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site, Krog Street Tunnel, Centennial Olympic Park, and Jackson Street Bridge. Whether you are interested in history, Civil Rights, or TV/movie filming spots (Marvel, Stranger Things, Walking Dead), Chris adapts the tour, making it perfect for first-time visitors. The tour is conducted in a clean, comfortable private vehicle, allowing for a relaxed pace. Highly recommended to take this early in your trip to get a, "best of," overview of the city and restaurant recommendations. I will certainly see Chris again when I am next here to see even more.

Exceptional Tour!

I recently retained this tour bus company to take my family on a private tour around Atlanta, and the experience exceeded our expectations from start to finish. The itinerary was perfectly curated. We were able to pass by some of Atlanta’s most iconic landmarks including the High Museum of Art, Mercedes-Benz Stadium, Inman Park, Krog Street Tunnel, Centennial Olympic Park, World of Coca-Cola, and the Atlanta BeltLine Eastside Trail. Each location was thoughtfully highlighted with engaging commentary that made the city’s history and culture come alive. One of the most meaningful parts of the tour was our 20-minute stop at the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site. It was a powerful and educational moment for my family, and the timing was just right to allow us to reflect, take photos, and truly appreciate the significance of the site. The bus was clean, comfortable, and spacious, and the driver was professional, punctual, and incredibly knowledgeable. They navigated the city smoothly while sharing interesting facts and stories that kept both the adults and kids engaged. If you’re looking for a seamless, informative, and memorable way to experience Atlanta—whether for family, friends, or out-of-town guests—I highly recommend this company. They helped us create a day we’ll never forget!

Great tour guide

Chris was a fantastic tour guide from start to finish, good communication before my trip, picked me up from hotel and gave a varied and fasinating commentary about Atlanta Civil War history through to the present day and the impact of the beltline development on modern Atlanta. He was flexible about stopping at sites that particularly interested me so it made it feel all the more tailored and personal. Thank you Chris!

1st visit in Atlanta - great tour with knowledgeable and nice guide

Chris is a speaking book about Atlanta, the various neighbourhoods, the history, the culture and local art - I really enjoyed it - and wish to come back to spend more time in specific places. I recommend this tour to get a great overview of the city with a nice and knowledgeable guide.

City tour of Atlanta

I enjoyed the tour of Atlanta very much. The tour guide is very knowledgeable about the city and made everything very interesting. I especially liked the stop at the National Park and the tour through the cemetary. I learned a lot about the history of Atlanta. It is a great way to explore the city.

Team Event

I booked this as a team event for my coworkers and it was the perfect way for them to see Atlanta and the city culture. Chris is so knowledgeable, made it fun and interesting. I highly recommend. Many of them had not been to Atlanta before and were talking about how cool it was and surprised by all the fun facts after the tour ended. Excellent way to learn about Atlanta’s culture and/or show off your city! Thanks a ton Chris!
