By James Collins


If you are headed south with a group of your friends for a vacation, or on an extended business trip with time on your hands, you should take advantage of all there is to do in the capital of Georgia. There are art and natural history museums, world class entertainment, and an amazing aquarium. A group tours package Atlanta guests are offered is one way to see this city.

When you're going to be in and out of the city in a day, you might try One Day in Atlanta, a comprehensive plan. This will give you a great mixture of education, history, and relaxation. You will start off at the Georgia Aquarium and then move on to Centennial Park. This park was created especially for the 1996 Olympics. After having lunch, you'll walk through the World of Coca-Cola before ending up at the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site.

Taking the Must See tours is a great option for those who have never visited this city before. You will see the World of Coca-Cola and Olympic Park. You may lunch at the revolving Sundial Restaurant which sits at the top of the tallest hotel in the western hemisphere. Inside CNN Atlanta shows visitors how news broadcasts come together. You'll also get a chance to see how they work those weather maps.

Civil Rights & Beyond is a great package for everybody, but especially those with an interest in African-American history. It begins in the capital's Sweet Auburn District with a visit to Martin Luther King Jr.'s childhood home. You can walk over to Ebenezer Baptist Church to see where Reverend King preached. Later you'll visit the Museum of Fine Arts at Spellman College. Hammond House Galleries is also on the agenda. Supper at Paschal's Restaurant at Castleberry Hill will round out the day.

If you are touring Georgia landmarks, you must check out the Gone With the Wind tours. These excursions include the Margaret Mitchell home with its museum of movie artifacts including the front door of Tara, the childhood home of Scarlett O'Hara. The Civil War Battle of Atlanta is depicted in one of the best cycloramas in the country. You may travel a short distance south to visit the 1839 plantation, Stately Oaks.

For family groups there are special tours designed to keep the kids interested while learning something at the same time. The Georgia Aquarium is first on the agenda followed by a visit to a kid favorite, The World of Coca-Cola. You will enjoy a lunch of bison burgers at Ted's Montana Grill. In the afternoon you take a trip to CNN if you have older children or check out the Children's Museum for the younger ones.

For groups who want to plan their own agenda, there is the CityPASS which gives you discounts of up to forty percent on the city's top attractions. They are good for nine days once you begin to use them. You can enjoy the zoo, the aquarium, the natural history museum, CNN, and the College Football Hall of Fame at your leisure.

Georgia's capital is a vibrant, exciting metropolis. It is a center of culture, diversity, and history. Touring the city is exciting, fun, and thought provoking.
