Atlanta Preservation Center, Atlanta

You can't get much more local than seeing the town in the company of a resident, and such intimate guides are the specialty of this group. These knowledgeable volunteers are available to share their love of Atlanta with visitors for a small fee, which helps fund the work of the Preservation Center. The Center also organizes walking tours of ten city neighborhoods, which are offered February through November. One of the tours begins at the historic Candler Building , and offers a charming history of the surrounding neighborhood. Visit the website or call to arrange your own personal tour of the city, and get to know Atlanta through the eyes of her warm people.
