Roll Through Midtown Atlanta's Best Spots Without Walking Miles

You get a 2.5-hour guided Segway ride through Midtown Atlanta's main sights—Margaret Mitchell House, Fox Theatre, Georgia Tech, Federal Reserve Bank, and Piedmont Park—with a small group capped at eight people. Training is included, so you don't need experience. A midway break at a local eatery breaks up the ride, and you cover more ground than a walking tour in the same time.

The Experience

Your guide meets you at The American Hotel and spends the first 15 to 30 minutes teaching you the Segway—how to lean, how to brake, how to not look ridiculous in front of eight other people who are also learning. Once you're steady, you're moving. The Segway tour of Midtown Atlanta covers ground fast: you'll pass the tall towers of the business district, then slip into Ansley Park where the houses shift into Tudor and Craftsman styles that actually make you want to stop and look.

The stops matter. You pause in front of the Margaret Mitchell House, where the journalist wrote Gone With the Wind, and your guide tells you the story without making it feel like a textbook. Then you're rolling past Georgia Tech's campus, past the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta (which has a free museum inside about money and those automated forklifts moving cash around the vaults—weirder than you'd think). The Fox Theatre shows up with its ornate Moorish design, and you get a real sense of why people still book shows there. Somewhere in the middle, you stop at a local eatery for a break, which is good because your legs need a rest even if you're not walking.

The route loops back through Centennial Olympic Park, where the 1996 Summer Olympics happened, and you pass the Georgia Aquarium and World of Coca-Cola on the way. It's the kind of tour where you see the landmarks without spending three hours on your feet, and you get a sense of what Midtown actually is—not just a list of attractions, but how they sit next to each other, how the neighborhoods connect. You'll spot places you want to come back to later, which is the whole point.

What’s included

Your tour includes 15 to 30 minutes of Segway training at the start, use of the Segway for the full 2.5 hours, a local guide who knows Midtown's history and architecture, a midway break at a local eatery, ponchos if weather turns, and stops at the Margaret Mitchell House, Fox Theatre, Georgia Tech campus, Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, and Centennial Olympic Park with views of the Georgia Aquarium and World of Coca-Cola.

Is this one for you?This works well if you want to see Midtown's main landmarks in one morning or afternoon without renting a car or spending hours on foot—the Segway covers distance fast, and the small group size means your guide can actually talk to you instead of shouting at a crowd.
