Atlanta in summer

I am thinking about bringing my family to Atlanta this summer. My wife and I have a 15 yr. old girl and 2 boys - 10 and 13. So far i%26#39;m thinking we go to the Aquarium, CNN tour, Coca Cola HQ and then maybe a couple of days in Stone Mountain.

What else? Are there other corporate HQ%26#39;s that have interesting tours like Delta, etc.?

I don%26#39;t think Delta has a tour, but I know that Turner Field does. You should try to take in a Braves game too while you%26#39;re here.

As for what else to do, check out the Things to Do tab on the left for some ideas to get you started.

My sister-in-law did the Turner Field tour and really enjoyed it. She also enjoyed the tour of the Fox Theater, but I don%26#39;t know if that would be as interesting to your kids. It%26#39;s a beautiful building.

I, for one, did not enjoy my time at Turner Field. The food was outrageously expensive, and the whole place was crowded. Of course, I%26#39;m not crazy about baseball, and I can imagine that if you like it a Brave%26#39;s game could be very well a great experience, but if you%26#39;re so-so about it I%26#39;d be a little more hesitant to recommend.

Thank for the ideas. We have friends in Atlanta that we will be seeing as well and are trying to do a ';driving'; vacation this year. Since we live in Orlando everything is a long drive - Atlanta about 9 hours and i would prefer not to drive much further so our options are a little limited.

Thanks again.

The recommendation was for a behind the scenes tour of Turner Field which happens when it%26#39;s not in use. That will be a different experience than attending a baseball game.

Oh, I wasn%26#39;t speaking to the tour but to the games themselves, which are oft recommended on this forum. Rereading the thread I can see that my reply seems like a follow up to your recommendation; sorry about that.

Your kids might enjoy Six Flags or Whitewater.
