Atlanta Civil Rights History Tour
Hi there! I am a tour guide who has been showing people the great cities of Chicago, Los Angeles and now Atlanta. I love cities, history and enjoying excellent craft beer in the city.
Tour description
The core historical part of Atlanta offers a great insight to Martin Luther King Jr. and the Civil Rights Movement.
Explore his birthplace, church, and where he is buried next to his wife, Coretta Scott King.
On this tour, we talk about Atlanta's unique history: the Civil War, Coca-Cola, The Civil Rights Movement, etc. Also, we talk about Atlanta today: the world's busiest airport (Hartsfield-Jackson), The Olympics, and Jackson Street Bridge (if you have seen The Walking Dead this is for you).
Some of the stops included on the tour are:
- Municipal Market.
- Wheat Street Baptist Church.
- Ebenezer Baptist Church.
- The King Center.
- Historic Fire Station No. 6
- MLK Birth Home.
- Bungalows and Shotgun Houses.
- Visitor's Center.
- International Civil Rights Walk of Fame.
- Jackson Street Bridge.
Useful information:
- We walk over 3 miles ( 3'2 km more or less).
