- Passport141830 contributionsAwesome MLK ExperienceStephanie Parker, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable about everything regarding MLK and his family and ministry. She had clippings from newspapers to share. She answered all our questions and kindly took family pictures in front of historic landmarks. She gave our grandchildren junior ranger workbooks and pencils about MLK and was very accommodating with small children. We were very pleased with the tour and highly recommend to others.Written 22 April 2023
- jemillat0 contributionsKing Center visitWe visited the section of Center for Nonviolent Social Change. The entrance is beautiful. Here you can see the resting place of Dr. King and Mrs. Coretta Scott King. The area felt so peaceful. The museum is nice. There are rooms giving you information on Gandhi, which was very interesting as I did not know many things about him. There was also a room dedicated to Dr. King and Mrs. Coretta Scott King, telling of their childhoods and different aspects of their lives. There are articles of their clothing and other personal items also displayed. The Rosa Parks area was closed off while we visited however, we do plan to come back to explore more as there are other areas to see within the King Center. We walked down to Dr. King’s childhood home however we did miss doing the tour on the inside. That is something we plan to do on our next trip. Next to his home is a gift shop which had many different books, magnets, pins, etc. on other Black leaders. I would urge anyone to visit this site as you will learn about an important time in our history.Written 18 April 2023

The guide is a nice person. Besides telling some useful information about the culture and lifestyle in Atlanta, she is always ready to help and behaves more a friend than a guide.
