Loved the tour
Anne H, Jul 2025
Chris was knowledgeable, gave me history that I did not know about Atlanta. And also knew about what was happening around Atlanta filming.

A great way to appreciate Atlanta

We had a great tour! We are 1st time visitors to Atlanta & Chris is a local expert. He is full of interesting & fun facts. He customized our afternoon by asking us what we were most interested in, and also gave us some suggestions of things worth doing with our free day tomorrow. It was a great overview of the city, its neighborhoods, and its history as well as its future. 10/10!

Our tour guide was very personable and enthusiastic. He made us feel welcomed and really customized the experience for us. I’ve lived in Atlanta since 2000 and I learned so much! I’d highly recommend Terminus for out of town visitors or long-time residents!
