Solo Female Travel in Atlanta

Solo travel experience

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.

Solo travel experience

I'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.

Atlanta is relatively safe. Like all cities, there are petty crimes and you hear a lot of gun shots but I've never had any issues in my 10 years living in the city. People on public transportation can be sketchy and there are many homeless but they're aren't typically a concern.

Choose the neighborhood that feels safe to you. Inside the perimeter, I chose buckhead, north druid hills, Brookhaven, west midtown. More concerned about scammers than physical harm. I've never experienced serious harm here in 9 years outside of harassment from men, which is everywhere.

Skip clubs and lines unless you want to spend hundreds to sit down. The safest areas ti stay are north of i-20: West midtown, Brookhaven, buckhead, and further north from there If moving here, keep your car insurance tired to your current state. If you move it to ga it will skyrocket Every neighborhood has great restaurants you have ty choose the one that suits you

Food - Antico for pizza, Gios Chicken Almafitano is right next door and they serve the best chicken hot dogs ever. Sublime Donuts, The Varsity is a must-visit in Atlanta. Fox Bros BBQ. Ria's Bluebird for breakfast. Little Rey for a unique Mexican food experience (I suggest going there for brunch and ordering the pancakes!). Things to Do - Georgia Aquarium, World of Coke, The National Center for Civil and Human Rights (all these places are within walking distance of each other and you can save money by buying a CityPass). If you like sports, Atlanta United (soccer) and Falcons play at the Mercedes Benz Stadium, which is an amazing place to visit, even when the Falcons lose another game. I love walking around Piedmont Park. We also have a few markets - Krog Street Market, Sweet Auburn Market, and Ponce City Market, which are good for eating/shopping/doing things. You can also rent a bike or a scooter and ride along the Atlanta Beltline. Have fun!
