Martin Luther King Jr. History Walking Tour

Our tour guide (Joy) was amazing! Very knowledgeable and personable My daughter has autism and felt very comfortable around her, and was actually going to talk to her at the end of the tour...that says ALOT.

Leigh was phenomenal. The walking tour was very interesting and informative, lots of historical and current important stories in a living neighborhood. I enjoyed it very much.

Very very informative, Emily was great. I think it was a bit pricey, especially seeing that we were unable to go into certain places, the price should have reflected it, but the presentation was great.

Joy was a fantastic tour guide! We learned so much about Atlanta and the civil rights movement, and she added some great interactive features. Our small group had such a wonderful experience.

Our guide Emily was a wonderful and knowledgeable story teller! And the way each stage of the tour was arranged was fantastic!

Last year I experienced this tour pre-covid. Last week I took some friends on the tour (Emily was our guide both times). Although we were not able to go inside all the sites like last time, I was just as impressed with the tour. Emily is a great storyteller and all the information is so well researched.

Emily our guide was incredibly engaging, entertaining and educated on all elements of MLK, his community, relevant key historical players, the surrounding area and past and present social justice conversations. Be prepared to leave this tour with far more knowledge and a deeper understanding of the pivotal moments that shaped DR Martin Luther King Jr’s life and American history as we know it. Locals and visitors alike should take this tour - you will be glad you did! Don’t be frightened by a little exercise - the walk was completed at an enjoyable, and conversational pace. Emily, the guide map and the structure of the tour was completely professional, but I do recommend they add a placard or flag to designate the guide and the company name so patrons don’t get caught with the wrong tour group.

To know the critical part that Atlanta paid in the Civil Rights Movement. To learn the history and the family background of all these leaders. To "walk in their shoes" and see the neighborhood they lived in. Emily was very knowledgeable and made the history come to live. She answered all our questions.

Margaret’s love of Atlanta’s evolvement showed through her fact-packed narrative. I learned how ML King’s heritage and social environment nourished his commitment to justice.

The stories were inspiring and insightful. I left with a desire to leave a legacy behind, to be a better leader and to do more for others. The guide was friendly and engaging. Made sure people were safe and enjoying themselves. Also made efforts to start personal conversation with each participant and I was impressed how she remembered everyone’s name.
