Atlanta Self-Guided Audio Tour & City Landmarks Map

Summary

Flexible Atlanta Walking Tour with Audio Guide & Map

This is your chance to explore Atlanta’s best sights—like Piedmont Park, MLK Jr. National Historical Park, and the Botanical Garden—using a flexible audio guide and interactive map. Dive into local stories, wander at your own speed, and discover details you’d miss on a group tour. Make Atlanta yours for a day (or two) with total freedom.

What’s the experience like?

“You can start wherever you want,” our audio guide promised, so I picked Piedmont Park first—just because the grass looked extra green that morning and a couple of kids were chasing each other near the old stone steps. With my headphones on, I wandered past joggers and dog walkers while the story of Atlanta’s transformation from a driving club to a city gathering spot played in my ear. The skyline peeked through the trees, and I paused longer than planned by the lake, just listening to the city’s quiet hum mixed with birdsong.

Next up was the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historical Park. Standing outside his childhood home, I could almost picture him as a boy running down Auburn Avenue. The audio tour didn’t just list facts—it shared small family stories and pointed out details I’d never have noticed alone, like the faded paint on the porch railings or how close everything felt in this neighborhood. At Ebenezer Baptist Church, the narrator described moments of courage that made me stop and look up at those old brick walls with new respect.

Somewhere between stops, I realized how much freedom this self-guided audio tour gave me. No rushing to keep up with a group or waiting for someone else to finish snapping photos at Zoo Atlanta (where I did spend an extra ten minutes watching pandas munch bamboo). The map link made it easy to hop from art at the High Museum to stories of civil rights at the National Center for Civil and Human Rights—all at my own pace. Even when it started to drizzle outside Fox Theatre, I just ducked under an awning and listened to tales of its Moorish architecture and ghostly legends until the rain let up.
