Day trip to ATL - Atlanta, GA Visited the Delta Flight museum. Rented car for transport. Took the Tuesday 1 PM tour that was hosted by retired Delta employees who talked about the objects and planes in the museum and their experiences. It was entertaining and educational especially to those who love aviation and history. Good for solo travel due to secure environment of airport and museum. You have to show ID to access the museum since it is on their corporate campus adjacent to the airport. Also enjoyed the tour which was a group of about 15 other friendly people. Only sketchy part was leaving the airport. There were people begging near the Marta station but they left you alone if ignored.
Posted: February 5, 2024I've been to Atlanta many times. I've used the trains and walked around different kinds of neighborhoods. My only problem with Atlanta is that it's crowded. Besides that, I'm not a fan of southern food after a day or two because it's very unhealthy. But besides that, Atlanta is a cool city to visit. Lots of fun neighborhoods - downtown, midtown, northern part, and Buckhead. All are amazing.

If you're smart about how you move, you'll be fine. The same precautions you should follow everywhere. Pay attention to your surroundings, don't walk in dark streets alone, stay out of bad neighborhoods etc etc. I feel very safe in Atlanta.
Posted: June 17, 2025Atlanta is like any major US city. It has its dangers but if you stick to the populated places and have your wits about you, you’ll be fine. The public transit is very safe during the day and I would just exercise increased caution after 9/10pm
