Frequently asked questions
What is the number one thing to do in Atlanta?
The Georgia Aquarium is the essential first stop, but the World of Coca-Cola next door and a Sweet Auburn civil rights tour round out the classic Atlanta trio. This list ranks them all by traveller reviews.
How many days do you need in Atlanta?
Two days covers the downtown attractions and the civil rights district; three lets you add Zoo Atlanta, a film-location tour, or a North Georgia wine-country day trip. See our 2- and 3-day Atlanta itineraries.
Is the Atlanta CityPASS worth it?
Yes if you'll see three or more of the bundled attractions — it discounts the Georgia Aquarium and World of Coca-Cola plus a choice of others, and usually beats buying each ticket separately.
